Re: not coping

I'm sorry about your treatment hon @outlander It must be hard trying to go through it alone. I know it's not the same but please know we will be there for you, if you just need to off load and/or chat.

No doubt it is affecting every part of your life at the moment hon. Hopefully after the treatment things can settle down a bit. I know you enjoy your new job, hopefully it doesn't affect it too much.

Is your work supportive of you taking the time out that you need?

Re: not coping

Hey @outlander

Precious Outlander, you are not wasting anyone's resources. We are here for you and we care.

Thank you for sharing your story. We hope you have found some comfort in the kindness and understanding of our lovely community members.

It sounds like you are an incredibly caring and supportive person with so much on your plate at the moment. It is completely understandable to feel overwhelmed, exhausted, and lacking in time for yourself. It is often the case that at the end of the day, after looking after everyone else - there does not seem to be any time left for self-care.

I've also sent you an email if you would like to chat x


Please continue to share here, whenever you feel comfortable.
