Twisted -self care
Every morning I drive east into the sun.
At traffic lights I put sunscreen on the backs of my hands.
This morning I realised that this is self care,
Very rare for me.
I need to do more of this....

Re: Twisted -self care
Good evening @Catcakes,
I hope you had a super fun day at the beach. I swam particularly close to shore today to try and see you, but I guess we must have been at different beaches - I have a feeling there's more than one in Australia.

Good morning @Catcakes,
Just dropping by to say hello and that I hope today has some good in it for you. It is finally a cooler day here in Sydney, with some rain tumbling down - super nice after the absurdly hot days earlier in the week. I hope things are at least ok (and ideally better than ok) in your world today.

Thanks @Appleblossom.
People don’t usually get me.
I’d hang round with you I reckon 😊

Re: Twisted -self care
I might have to just stick to this corner.
Sorry @Zoe7 if I was challenging last night.
It’s got nothing to do with you personally,
I’m just crappy

Re: Twisted -self care
I have things to contribute @CheerBear,
I have experienced much of what others are struggling with @Appleblossom,
I have worked while raising five kids and returned to uni once they were all at school @Former-Member.
I have used every form of child care myself,
I am now a carer but with MI myself.
But I’m apart from the world,
I’m on the outside looking in....
It’s a crappy place,
Even those who are meant to help
@Former-Member,
Don’t bother.
The world is spinning and I can’t get on

You okay @Catcakes?
Anything I can do to help?
What did you study? Did you enjoy it?

Not really 5-HT
I’ve been crappy for days
I did a post grad in Child and Family Health.
I loved it but due to I’ll health took twice as long.
