Re: rough time

I think sometimes it's all too easy to question and find fault with ourselves and our behaviours. It serves no purpose to beat yourself up because you can't change anything. You were a teenager, going through many changes in yourself and your life. I'm sure you were appreciated for all the other things you did.

Try to hold onto the good memories of your nan, and fill your heart with the love you have for her.

I was never close to my grandmother or great grandmother. My grandmother was a harsh, bitter complaining woman. I didn't have much to do with her nor was I close. Same with my great grandmother. I wish I had a grandmother that I could be close to. I'm not close to any relatives really.

Sorry i accidentaly posted. My phones jumping abit.

She wont be forgotten even when time heals wounds. I hope my brain will allow the better memories to come out rather than the guilt and emotions in time.

Im sorry you didnt have a grandmother to be close with. Now that she is gone im not close to any relative either. Since being here and being able to form the connections i have its helped me to heal. Ive even gained a few family members while ive been here and thats pretty special to me.

Do you think youll be able to form better connections with some of your relatives like your mum or foster sister or others you have a connection with? @Sans911

Re: rough time

My MI has brought my foster sister and I closer than ever before. But it comes with tensions because my foster sister barely tolerates my mother, and I try not to talk to my mother too much about my foster sister as I don't want her to feel hurt. When I was about 8 years old I had 3 mothers (a story for another time). It was a very confusing time for me.

I'm not very close to my foster mother now, because she's a bit closed off. So I don't talk to her as much as her daughter.

I've formed incredibly close relationships with people here in the forums, like you. I have friends but not many here in my city.

I'm thinking it's probably about time to go to sleep now. And for you too lil Sis. Thanks for chatting about your Nan. I appreciate it.

Both my boys are asleep at the end of the bed. They look so peaceful

Re: rough time

You have faced so many challanges @Sans911 so so many. I think its brave you share them with me sometimes.

Im glad your forming closer relationships but can understand those tensions too. Can be a little bit of a juggling act.

Goodnight sis. I hope you can get some sleep tonight. Thanks for chatting and keeping me company. I dont think ill be sleeping much since pop is abit sick. Thinking a chest infection so ive booked him in to see a dr tomorrow arvo. Ill do my breathing exercise though.

Goodnight to the boys too.

Hey lil Sis @outlander

I'm awake for a little while. Just got up to feed the cats and have a coffee. I hope you got a little rest. Sorry to hear that your pop is not well.
