Surfing today @outlander . Hanging on to my board hopefully. 🤞🤞

How are your teeth feeling? You don’t have to answer if you are sick to death of talking about them though. I understand avoidance helps sometimes.

Looking for some colour to put into my day today. Looking is as far as it’s getting though. Avoidance avoidance 😁😁😁☕️☕️☕️

[outlander]

they are ok @Maggie getting there slowly. feeling abit off colour in other areas though. im trying to manage my anxiety today as its quite high now.
some colour in your day sounds pretty good idea, even if it is looking.
im having a look into a study course and its affordable once I get the deposit up. thinking after Christmas now though.

I did read about an important app coming up for you @outlander 

Good that your teeth are getting there.🤞🤞

A study course next year sounds like something for you, a good for you thing to do. 💕

Extra pressures atm can’t be helping, kids and pop.

Sorry anxiety is high atm.

[outlander]

yeah its important and im hoping that it helps with the symptoms @Maggie
think im just having an off yuk sort of day

yeah lots of extra pressures atm. while im happy for mum and itll be helpful in other ways it also means more responsibility for me. I now have to have mine and pops schedules between 830 and 2pm so I can drop kids off and pick them up. if the appointments are short I can take the kids with me after school but for pops they are often at least and hour so don't want to take them to those and with school holidays coming up quickly again trying to get things sorted or stabilised before then.
I really do want to study again. its a course I didn't know about but itll save me doing individual courses if I do this one. its longer and literally has them in the one course so works out well.

I read something on the news about how much funding is being cut from the health care system in nsw. I really cant imagine what that's about to do to the systems. I really feel for the drs, nurses and specialists who are about to be even more under the pump to treat and care for patients.

Yuk sort of days are really hard @outlander . Sometimes  riding them out is all we can do. 💜💜

I know you are happy for your mum @outlander , it just looks to me she doesn’t consider you in the big pic. So much responsibility on your young shoulders. I feel sad, as I had similar with brothers and caring for my mother. No changing some things unfortunately.

But hearing you, very much hearing you.

Study is a really good thing for the here and now and the future. Finding a longer course with all in one is great. Stick to it. Something for you.

I must head out and take my avoidance hat off, even for a short time.

Lots of these 💕💕💕💕💕 @outlander . You matter and are deeply loved all around these forums, and no doubt, elsewhere.
