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

@Former-Member You are putting too much pressure on yourself sweetie. You are still young and still have your whole life ahead of you. There is never an age where you can't study so for now I think concentrating on getting yourself better is priority number one then down the track perhaps look into study. You can always go back and finish high school no matter what age or get into a mature age degree etc.

I too have no qualifications as I had to give up uni in my second year and I am 37 still contemplating studying.
so babe look after your MH health first.

Re: Tough Times

Because I told him to go. I told him I was safe for tonight. I wanted to be able to spend sometime with my fourm family without him watching my every move. I don't know when I will be able to say hello to you all next, I don't when I will be able to support you next. I won't know till morning weather I am going. Some idea that it means I won't run tonight tonight. I just want to hang out here for a bit chatting with whoever is around.
