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.

Re: Tough Times

We where really concerned for you today and you know Kimmy's answer to everything ICE CREAM 💜 I am right with you in being exhausted honey, I am beyond wrecked tonight. Being completely honest I am struggling tonight. SH thoughts in full swing, exh2 extra vigilant as he knows something is up, haven't been able to tell him though. With three others in the house I have never felt more alone in my life. @Lee82

@Lee82 , sorry that was probably too much, I didn't consider the day you are having. Sorry my friend 💖

Re: Tough Times

I'm so sorry I didn't mean to worry you. I have just had an emotionally filled day. I had a tough session with psychologist at 10 and got some worrying news about a friend and Mr8.
My heart Hurts for you gorgeous. I understand how having a house full of people still makes you feel so alone. Anything you want to talk about?
please if the urge to SH gets worse please tell exh2. He is there for you to lean on honey. I know it's damn hard but please talk to him about it.

@Former-Member

I am here for you too always.

Re: Tough Times

Please don't be sorry babe, it's the price we pay for the friendship we have. You didn't do it intentionally. I hope Mr8 and your friend are going to be ok my love. Sorry that it was a hard session with your psychologist. Sending you lots of gentle hugs @Lee82

I dropped what is up in the "Worry Room" as I didn't know where else to put it. Don't think I can say it again. Don't worry exh2 is never far away as I said he knows something is up with me, I wasn't even allowed to shower alone😞
