Re: not coping

Thank you @Snowie ❤️
Have some more tests from the specialist I seen today.

I tried a new treatment for pains as well but I don’t think it’s for me. It wasn’t overly relaxing like it had intended to be. Wasn’t awful or painful but I didn’t really like it

Re: not coping

💕 @outlander not real sure what to say or what to offer, but know that there is more than just ‘support’ behind that button when I press it.

Re: not coping

Thats fair enough @outlander

You need to do what is right for you hon. If that treatment wasn't helping or didn't sit right with you, then so be it.

Hoping today goes ok for you hon 💌💌

Re: not coping

Hey there @outlander ,

I'm so sorry you are going through such a difficult time. I hear you are not well and on top of that, you are working long hours to ensure you can stay on top of things.

It's so hard to read that this is happening. I actually don't know any services that can help.

With your car and rego, can you pay a month or so at a time? Or I think it's three months?

Re: not coping

Hi everyone

i jsut wanted to stop in and say hello to everyone. im missing you all very much.
its hard to be here when everything in my life is currently pretty negative and i cant really talk to much about it.
im at a point where i dont even know what to say to anyone anymore. ive felt that isolating is almost the better option at this point, at least i cant get into any more trouble, say something wrong, do something wrong etc.

life after being a carer is not really going the way i thought it would be.

i am heading away for 2 weeks for some intense medical treatment in the next few days.

@Snowie @creative_writer @Bow @Eve7 @Sans911 @Shaz51 @tyme @Appleblossom @Sophia1 @Jynx @Owlunar2 @Stout
sorry if ive forgotten anyone

Re: not coping

I understand @outlander , dedicating your life to being a carer, and then finding you need it yourself.

In my opinion, we should be free to speak about things without fear of upset. Being mindful can be a metaphorical difficulty, I know. Being new in every town and place I went to made me learn about sensitivities.

Being on the interwebs can be apprehensive.

I hope you find the comfort and help you need @outlander
