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

@Zoe7 , unfortunately the two that live with me have forgotten all together and the youngest of the two decided that today was a good day to move out of home. But my other two have at least sent me a text message. Hope you are having a good day. 💖

Re: Tough Times

It been a tough day @Zoe7. Not sure how to deal with my thoughts, feeling and emotions but I have my mask on whilst people are around cause god forbid they know exactly how I'm feeling. May make them too uncomfortable. Plus can't ruin mums does vial day cause it's all about her.

Sending you huge comforting hugs my love, your feelings are valid, mine those thoughts though. You are nothing of what you are thinking right now and you have everything to live for. Love you 3000 @Lee82

Re: Tough Times

@Former-Member yes the social worker appointment. Now it's over the phone, don't know why they wasted their time making me fill out forms and sending me the address in the mail when it's over the phone now.

I'll probably cry to my Psychiatrist on Wednesday, I hope he doesn't mind. Thanks for the wishes.

Sorry to make it depressing since it's Mothers Day 😞 @Lee82
