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.

@Maggie , thank you. I don't always see it, well at the moment I don't see it at all when the darkness sets in I do know it will shift in time and that light is going to be brilliant. I hope your day is gentle with you

Babe I am so sorry to hear that. I'm really sorry I wasn't there for you. 😞

not being a great friend right now am I.
I will pop in from time to time today. I have a few things I have to find the strength to do today like take Mr8 to his psychology appointment at 11 and then Mr12 for his vaccinations at 4.30 plus pack for the boys weekend with their dad as well as try and fit in homeschooling. My head is all over the place today babe. Can't concentrate on Anything.

Re: Tough Times

ill be around today too @Lee82 @Former-Member if you need. ill keep an eye out for you both

You also didn't fail, you coped the best way you know how whether its classed as 'healthy or unhealthy' while its not ideal its how you know how to cope with overwhelming emotions right now. You will overcome it, I have faith in you both. it just takes time and lots of learning and practice
