Something’s not right

Tough Times

Tough Times

I thought I'd open up this discussion for anyone going through a rough time at the moment and want to get some extra support.
I am struggling a lot at the moment dealing with a range of things. One thing a struggle with is Anxiety. This is something I deal with everyday. I wake up with it every morning and fall asleep (when I sleep) with it every night. Some days are worse than other days. Distractions play a big part in coping with it daily. At the moment being stuck at home schooling my kids is my biggest distraction. It helps most of the time however sometimes it can be a real struggle to stay present and calm. We as a family try to go for a walk everyday. We take our family dog with us. Another distraction for me is cooking but this can be a challenge as I struggle with motivating myself but when I get into it I create some nice things. Today my 8year old son and I made oat based banana and chic chip muffins. 😋😋

I hope everyone's day has been a good day filled with self care and motivation.

What the???!!!! Still pushing hours. You must be exhausted.
Is it just an anxious cycle that you are on where you can’t sleep.
Oh I do hope that some shut eye comes your way.

I was getting ready to say goodnight around midnight when I got a 6 hour phone call from a cousin that I only reconnected with last week. I am sure it will come, i have to get my washing done as since I have had such a rough week it's piling up.
Enjoy your chilled day my friend. 💖

Hi @Former-Member, thankyou and good morning. Cool, I like Harry Potter. Hey who cares how well they are made, I'm certainly no professional, as long as we enjoy the process of making them and the end result. Have a lovely day.

Oh @Former-Member, I beg to differ. I think that they are simply beautiful. They are soooooo amazing. I'm so glad that you had fun doing them.

I am not sure if Delerium has set in or I am showing my age 😂😂😂 But I love this song.

Thanks beautiful lady, I hope you have a day. Just remember “Happiness be found in the darkest of places if one remembers to turn on the light” my favourite Dumbledore quote. @SpiderLady 💖💖

I love that song also @Former-Member .

I agree with what you have written. I also believe there is growth in darkness. You can’t always see it, unfortunately. 💜💜💜
