not coping

Hi @outlander hoping you managed a good rest overnight at least. There is absolutely no need for you to apologize for your level of involvement in the forums lately. If ever self-care was warranted it's for you for now. So much on your plate. I totally agree with all @Sans911 and @Appleblossom have said here and am relieved to see you are being supported so solidly at this time. And I do still see you around the forums - you do an amazing job here and are heaps appreciated. Sending you lots of love and clarity to make necessary decisions re treatment and meds. Remember you have the right to find another pdoc if this one is giving you ultimatums unreasonably. Take care my friend. Hope you do get the day off as planned today. xoxo

Oh @outlander , I really feel for you... 💔

I agree with others that there are more CGs here now, so you can relax a bit on that front... Also I was thinking, most parents would not have an elder daughter there to carry some of the load in raising their kids. Most parents have to juggle work and bills and kids and their own issues, etc, and it's not as if your mother is a single parent. I think it's unreasonable, what she expects of you...no wonder she doesn't like to hear that you're not coping, she's got it made with you there. I too worry that you may suffer some kind of collapse if you don't get some relief from your burdens soon. 😥

Just want to say hello little one, I hope you are ok today. 💜Nikki @outlander

Big hello to you all @NatureLover @eth @Maggie @Sans911 @Zoe7 @Eve7 @Lee71 @Appleblossom

@Former-Member 👋👋💞💞💞🌹🌹

You have said before a little of what your mother does for work @outlander, and I did remember it was in that sphere. So yes, I don't understand why she doesn't understand. She seems so blinded by your needs, as if hers are far more important and you don't count at all. It's not right at all how she treats you. I don't know how you manage to put up with her. I might have walked well before now. Sisters or not.

You are such a loving, giving person lil Sis. There must be genes in your DNA from prior generations. Your nan most likely.

I know you have lots of room in that big heart of yours. I will find my comfort levels here again, but it's going to take more time than I thought. There's still a level of unease.
