Reaching out to others who are in a caring role. I look after my mother with multiple health issues, including depression and anxiety. I feel stuck. I can see the signs that the depression has reared its head but my mum doesn't see it. I really struggle when my mum's mental health suffers. I too battle with depression and anxiety. Emotionally, I am all over the place. Hoping there are some others out there who understand what I'm going through.

Re: Seeking mutual support from carers
Hey @Bella1978 Sorry I've been off grid for a few days. Sometimes I get so weird and shut myself off from everything. Last week I was so lonely, this week I have made sure I leave the house and interact with people during the day. I am going to physio for some physical pain i've had. Because I have been managing my own mental health and taking care of my husband, I have neglected to look into my pain properly and now that I have answers I am so relieved. The physio has given me exercises and its helping. I had a motorbike accident 11 years ago and it has caused long term problems. Wish I'd done something sooner. How are you doing?
