Re: not coping

@outlander Hey outlander I have been at a meeting with son2's workers. They are trying to get us both some respite as we are so exhausted with covid lockdown. Ex was over this morning and he did some computer playing with son2 and we spent some much needed time talking. How have you been? The hot weather is awful .... we have been lucky this year with alot of rain and temps in the low to mid 20s.

Re: not coping

To be honest I am not good @outlander I am not handling things well. H has stayed home from work today to be with me. I am not safe by myself.

I start ECT on Friday. I am not sure if I am going to do it or not now. I think why bother.

Oh well, enough about me.

How are you going hun?

Re: not coping

I just got some more bad news about a friend today. Not much I can do for them from afar but just another thing that seems to be "added to the list" @outlander

Tried to speak to a help line last night and then lost power at our house about half way through 🤦‍♀️
