Hello I am @Shaz51 Husband and I have a question ;
On sunday afternoons I feel down and Depressed for some reason
It does not matter if I have had a busy weekend or a lazy weekend , but when sunday afternoon comes -- I am low, depressed and down , can`t get off the lounge .
could it being anxious about starting a new week ??
wondering why ??
If anyone else has feeling or days like that ??

Hello @BlueBells 
Yes I totally agree with you -- Life goes on , Lots have happened over the years
Business is surviving,
children have grown up , their lives have ups and downs -- being here for them xx
things get broken -- fix them up ,
our Mums to look after , both in their 80`s
our Health problems
They say all this and more make us stronger in the end
so how are you today ?

Hi @Shaz51 @BlueBells
I have been following along with you a bit this morning.
Hugs to you both ! ❤️❤️
I know I swing between feeling strong at times, to feeling like I have just scraped through at other times. But we dust ourselves off, don't we ? It helps to know the kids will be taking lesdons, conscious or not, on how to pick up and keep going when they get bowled over by life's challenges.
I was on another thread this morning on the Carer's Forum, and mentioned the movie 50 First Dates. I find that movie incredibly inspiring. So challenging, based in a truth that some people do live, and showing how everyone involved has to develop coping skills and find the joy in it sometimes.
Take care ☺️
