@outlanderit is ok to be frustrated at your life, at you family.
I know you have struggled in the friendship part.....and having us on here is not the same as irl.....I know that.
I did see you asked on FB about any art groups near you. Can you do a google search of any groups near you at all. You might have already done this.

having you guys here is great, theres no doubts about that but in a way id love to be able to go catch up with someone over coffee for an hr or so to fill in the day. @Former-Member ive done heaps of seraches. the closest one near me is 2 hrs away and its a waste of petrol and time for an hrs session. ive looked on fb, and ive looked through google as well. its not just art either. alot of the time i have to be in the mood to go and do the art and in a way i can see my getting there, getting frustrated and things go flying all over the place or i just dont care and stop trying just as ive done now.
why does life have to be so shite. ill have to baby sit tomorrow and that just makes everything else worse becasue its not something i enjoy having to constantly do it. im really just over everything.

I know it is not the same as catching up with someone for a coffee and chat and having that connection in real life. You are allowed to be over it.
It does anger me too that you are expected to look after your sisters all the time. But I know your mum doesn;t listen to you and you feel stuck there.

its not jsut my sisters, its everything. @Former-Member i just want to be normal. i know define normal. but anything but the way i am has got to be better than this. the world has to be more than taking care of pop, taking care of my sisters, trying to keep my shit together all the time. worrying about finances, trying to be anything that im not. and yet when i think about meeting people i self doubt so much because i find it extremley hard to talk to people, to trust people.
even tomorrow im looking after the youngest feral as the other ones with friends. and i have to go do a few things for mum.
i dont know what i want to do, anything but be here. i just want to be someone else 😞

@outlanderI am hearing you hun.....it is so hard to live how we do, to not get a break, so deal with it day in day out....I understand.
I think that is one of the questions I ask myself, how do I keep going?
I don't have any answers for you, wish I did....but am hearing you and are here with you ![]()
