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.

I know babe, it's all good. I know you care and I you would love nothing more than to talk to in person give me a hug (gently this morning) but you being here is honestly the best. I was worried this morning.

I am probably th safest I have been by myself. I am immobilised by pain, can nearly make it to the bathroom, going to take more pain meds soon. Exh2 will be over soon and I have to find a way to be "ok" while he is here. @Lee82

Re: Tough Times

Can I ask you a pretty tough question? You don't need to answer it if you don't want to.
