Re: rough time

I dont know why nights are so hard. We should be sleeping yet we are awake and struggling when we were fine earlier in the day. It could have something to do with our bodies being worn down at the end of the day @Sans911 @Former-Member
And constantly quiet weekend may be trigger as you said Sans. Havibg nothing to do or no where to go brings out that lost and unworthy feelings.


@Former-Member glad someones watching the kids for you. I dont likw my sisters coming to my appts for the same reason. Plans for tomorrow depend on how i feel. I have to take the kids to school but aftet that not sure

@Sans911 that ones my next favourite too. Not sure if should change it or not as yet. Sounds like a busy day! Yes overtime out mh likes to eat away at every aspect of ourselves. Hopefully tomorrow you can rest....

Re: rough time

Have you thought about joining a social group @Sans911 or reconnecting with some older friends? If i knew you id go out the the movies and anywhere else you wanted to go! I know weekends are really tough for you so i hope soon you could find a weekend activity to do with others. I know here isnt the same as life form but you can always lean on us and chill whenever you want to. You dont have to go it alone. ❤

Re: rough time

@outlander - I have no friends here in Perth except for the one who's kids I looked after. I won't be doing a lot with her like movies or coffee because of the kids. She doesn't have a partner.

I have tried things like Meetup and stuff, but my social anxiety is pretty bad about now. I barely cope going into the city with crowds. Maybe in a few months.

Weekends are huge triggers @Former-Member @outlander. That's when my SH/SI really ramps up. This weekend will be ok as I'm seeing my mum and foster sister. I'm also helping my friend unpack.

Re: rough time

maybe in a little while then @Sans911 when your anxiety is abit better. maybe your friend can get a babysitter in for a little bit or on her days off work when the kids are at school im sure she would enjoy that too.

are you travelling down to your foster sisters house? or are they travelling to you? and helping your friend will keep you occupied too

Re: rough time

@Sans911I am glad you are seeing your foster sister and mum this weekend. I know weekends are hard and are a struggle for you.

Remember we are here for you in those times of struggles
