Re: Taking the plunge
Please do not do anything hasty @Former-Member . Nobody is allocating any blame to anyone, and certainly not to you. You are not to blame for the ills in your life.
You know its not always going to be this hard. Ending things would only leave others in a great deal of distress. Would you do that to your daughter? No .. of course you wouldnt. You love her too much ... thats very clear from all that you have said about your daughter here.
We need to concentrate on getting well @Former-Member .. We have to concentrate on getting through each day, in the expectation that tomorrow will shine a little brighter and become a little less difficult.
Yes @Gazza75 it was a wonderful set up. And the dam itself was great to swim in too. Although we did have a few red-belly black snakes who also liked a bit of a swim. And the occasional leech. urgh.

I cant stay any longer @Former-Member , but will check back in a little later. I have some things I need to do here. Hopefully the Chat line is now available to you, and that you gain some comfort and perspective from that. Please stay safe.

@Former-Member, I was thinking of leeches when I read your reply. I have big ones at my place compared to the ones I'm used to on the coast. They pack some punch in the bush. I feel very luck to have some really nice waterholes on my place, due to floods I actually have bigger and better ones now than when I purchased. One has riversand all over it now and its like a little beach. 🙂

Re: Taking the plunge
@Former-Member, have you used the chat before? Are you using a phone or computer? Maybe you can try a different web browser if you can? I'm only guessing, i've never tried the chat line here.
