Re: rough time

Things just got worse. 😢
I really don’t cope with life at all.
Every day is so hard to get through. I can’t believe that things happen every day to knock me down further.
Does it ever stop?
I’m so exhausted and in pain from the stress.
Rant over.
😢
@Former-Member @outlander 💜
Thanks for sitting with me, even though you have your own “stuff”
D’s friends are not supporting her at all. Quite the opposite. Leaving her out.
She’s such a kind caring friendly fun person. It doesn’t make sense.
Why are people like that? So selfish and self centred. Breaks my heart, on top of everything else. 😢
She has mini seizures when stressed
WTF is wrong with people?
Hmm. I did say rant over.
This is all too hard.

Re: rough time

Aww @Former-Member thats really not fair at all. Thats really heartbreaking
Is there any support groups that your daughter could join in around your area to make new friends or get support?
Breathe Bella ok... cry if you need to take a break or have a shower to just take a breather.

Hi @Former-Member

Sorry to hear you are struggling, life can be hard when things are not going well.

I hope the stress and pain calms down for you soon.

Re: rough time

Hi @outlander

It's a really hot day in Melbourne - last night the hot air outside seemed to force it's way in when I opened the door and Companion Cat went outside late and stayed out. I know she is trying to get the Cicadas - fat chance she will ever catch one

I read that you have these stuck-up people giving you the cold-shoulder at the horse place. You have every right to be there to see you horse and do whatever - and I have an idea for you to practice

I call it giving the hard stare. It's hard to start but you can learn to do it

You have a right to be in the world and not have people demean you - so you have the right to stare back if people are doing or saying whatever. The idea is to stare at them harder and longer than you normally would - and gradually look them up and down. You don't have to say anything to them -

It's something I do at times - maybe it doesn't gain me any popularity and maybe you will find it uncomfortable but

Yeah - the past is hooking you back at times and you are an employed and some of your work is paid - caring for Pop - and then you pick up the slack for your mother so you are really a person who is needed and fills in for other people so remember that and just stare if people stop laughing and stare at you and say whatever

I'm really sorry this is the way it is for you Outlander - but there are people who seem to get pleasure out of other people by being rude

And you are not rude

All the best Dec

Re: rough time

Thanks @Owlunar i got so angry and when i get in that state god help anyone who starts as often i dont use my words very well. Actually the fight instincts kick in. And then because i cant manage the emotions as well as i could it then turns to tears and upset. Im sure ill see them again. I always will but as u said i have a right to be there and if they dont like it they can fk off. Atm im in too much pain to move. Ive taken the foetal position hopped up on meds to try ad dull it out. Its no longer just my chest and middle it is all over my entire stomach and sides and fk me i want it over with already. I wad suppose to have lunch earlier on after those new meds. Had 3 mouthfuls of salad and really couldn't handle anymore.

Its hot here too. It was raining earlier which was nice but not its hot and humid again. More humid than anything else. A southerly is in its way thougg and i hope it gets to melbourne for you too

Re: rough time

She’s constantly trying @outlander
Always encouraging her to move forward, but it’s constant. It never lets up.
I’m guessing it’s because she’s mature for her age, always has been. She’s changed groups of friends so many times. They’re all self centred and don’t show any concern whatsoever
I’ve encouraged her to remind her what she’s going through,but they don’t show any concern.
She’s had enough of trying.
But I’ll keep encouraging, even though it does look bad.
She deserves better
The last thing she needs is more stress
You’d think they’d show a little concern.
The most frustrating part is, I don’t have the energy to take her out to get her mind off it all
Her father took her to movies, thank goodness.


Thanks for your concern @SleepyPanda. 🌺🌹
Trying to stay calm and breathe
Hoping the crying will help release the stress.
