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

That is not good sweets. So we both know it's going to get worse as it gets closer to the boys coming home, so is there anything we/you can put in place now that will help you? @Lee82 💜💜💜

Hugs @Lee82

Nice good warm sisterly clean ones.

Ooooh @Former-Member you pulled the plug.

JUst a lil more pleez

I was wanting to join in and say it is the type of thing a dad's gf might give ... cos we grew up with a lot of focus on suffering ... I did make the point once to my sister that some things are meant to be pleasurable ... but not like that .... eeeeuugh ... but important not to add to the war between the sexes ... life is hard enuff.

Its a beautiful gift @Former-Member especially if she is an artsy naturey lady.

Hope you did not mind me popping in my 2 bobs worth.

Re: Tough Times

You made me smile @Appleblossom, please add your 2 bob anytime😂 I need a good giggle right now and I am sure @Lee82 could use one, but she is probably blushing more than giggling 🤭

In response to: Re: Tough Times

Re: Tough Times

Definitely don't mind hearing your 2 bob @Appleblossom...

hey I'm no a prude guys...😂😂

@Former-Member

I like a bit of good clean fun too.
