Quotes, poetry and music to help us all

Quotes, poetry and music to help us all

Hi Sane Forumites

Just wanted to start a thread where people can share quotes, poems or parts of literature that can help them get through the tough times.

Feel free to tag anyone.

My contribution today is from Oscar Wilde:

"What seems to us as bitter trial are often blessings in disguise"

@Bunniekins hello darling, just finished work. I feel my psychosis was madness forced on me, into me by my father that I can't get rid of. Now with forum help, accepting it, I feel a lot freer. Have a great afternoon take care.

Aww @MDT, I get the disappointment of not getting a job.

Boredom always been something I've avoided in my family.

As for me well,

Since my boy has started school his teachers and dr have said that he shows signs of autism and while I seen signs here and there I didn't think he shows enough to be tested and the peadiatrician says that it is possible he could have high functioning autism but doesn't think that he needs the testing as routine and structure keeps my boy going but due to pushing from school and dr he probably going to be tested anyway.

I also found out that due to my mother and uncles arguments over my Nans health issues and who gets to make decisions my Nan put my name down on a document saying that I decide what happens. I know its because I have listened to what she wants and know what she wants but I feel anxious about the prospect of having to make such a decision. And it is a decision I could potentially have to make in 4 months when she goes for surgery to remove part of a noncancerous tumour near her brainstem to relieve pressure and possibly extend her life expectancy.

I am also about to start studying again now that I am more mentally stable

That sure is a lot of responsibility @Former-Member

I am impressed at your ability to see clearly even though it is a lot. Good on you I think 🙂 I'm sure you will get to the bottom of what it's all about vis a vie your nan. Also about your boy, you are getting help if you think you need it for him. That's gotta count for something I think. Better to go and get help and find out you probably don't need it (or at least in the way you initially thought you did) compared to not seeking it at all!

And I'm studying a Bachelor of counselling. I already have my diploma so now I'm getting my bachelor degree and hoping to be a student counsellor

@Bunniekins Hello, just got home from a bit of walk. I am going out with my old coworker tomorrow tonight. My plumbing disaster seems to have finished. The carpets now completely dry. Hope to slow develop some energy to clean up my last breakdown mess. How is your afternoon going? Any plans?
