I hope you are all being good to yourselves xxx
I'm probably going to stop coming on here.
I have just handed my notice in at the MSE Arms. I don't know whether continuing to post in here will be too tempting. No such thing as a half drug addict.....so can I log in, post here and leave? Hmmm.
I'm in such a funny mood.
I get so much from MSE but it comes at a huge cost. In my way I give my soul on here and the place sucks the life from me and hurts me at times.
I always read this thread but I only comment when I feel I can help. But I think you can cope without me. Others are the real hub of the thread so I know you are in safe hands.
No fuss. This is a healthy action.
I want to thank you all for allowing me to post here. This thread holds my proudest MSE moments.
I love and send my love to you all

Aaw please don't stop posting, do what I do, either stay away for a few days/weeks until feeling better, or hover around until you feel able to talk, I for one will miss you, even though I haven't been around for a while.:oKEEP CALM AND keep taking the tablets :cool2:0 -
Hey Gillette,
I have just signed on. Had a real long day today and its only 2 oclock. Its one of those days thats going to drag and be long.
Im not sure If something has triggered you to feel like this or if someone has upset you or offended you. But please dont go. You are a highly valued friend. We may not know each other but we try and be here for each other when we can. Even if unable to post, we think of each other and hoping we are ok coz we care about each other when other ppl in our own lives couldnt give a f@@@ if you know what I mean.
If you want to talk about it, Im here.You have been very nice and kind to me and I thank you for that. Remember how your positive and useful posts have helped me??You have helped many others on here and there is always new people that read on here and dont post and when they do, someone always replies to a newbie. You have been one of those. I may not always reply to posts as I am forgetful and things slip my mind or im too ill but i try my hardest and so do you. You should be proud that you have helped others when they have been at there lowest. Sometimes when I feel I have helped others, i feel a relief coz I hate to know others are suffering and to help someone forget those awful and dark thoughts gives me satisfaction.
Anyway, please think about it and pm when ever u like. I got to go docs i a bit as got to get repeat prescription. Had to see caseworker today. I have had a slight relapse in my old addiction. Im really upset but had my reasons. Then went and saw dietican. I have to do a 2 week diet, dont know how im going to do it but have no choice.After i been docs, picking son up and then taking him docs so he can get refered to hospital for hearing tests. Then home, cook dinner, tidy up and before I know it its going to be 10pm. Im knackered.
Hugs to you all xx0 -
:hello: Everyone,
I am ok,had a nice meal at my parents todaygoing to presentation night on my own as Dad isnt well,Mum would have come to please me but I said I would be fine as it really is just collecting it and my bits and pieces I have made and it saves Dad from driving back and forth.He has some sort of flu virus and I dont want him to have to come out again today so I thought of him instead of myself
Mounted the photos on to card and they look lovelyaw Gillette I am sad you have to leave but I hope you will come back and post again when you feel able to
You have been a great friend and an asset to this thread and you will be really missed
love and light,

Hi Diamond
I'm in a similar boat - lone parent - no support, how do you cope?[/quot
Hi blue-sea. Sorry for the late reply. I havent got a clue how I hope. It is like a constant battle and fight to be honest but something allways picks me up from the floor. Its been so hard and I know It will carry on being hard for many years to come. But when I fell that low and I cant see a way out, I sit back and think of things. I pray that things will gets better and look at my son and think how hurt and distraught my son would be if i ended my life. It would mess him up for life and I couldnt do that to him. Protecting him is so hard as his growing up. I want him to grow up and and remember me as a happy and good mum and be proud of me. My childhood wasnt great and I blame my parents for it, so that is my lesson that I must be better than my parents and do my upmost so my son doesnt end up a bit messed in the head like me. It is all down to me how my son turns out and thats what I have to keep saying to myself. You are coping very well althought I dont know your curcumstances but coming on here and posting, means your a caring person and you are human.Just try and think of good things, think of things that would make you happy. And go and treat yourself, have your nails done or hair done. YOu deserve it.
CCstar, sending you hugs hun.
Katie, have a great evening.
got to dash now but be on later on when my slaving has finished.
Hope you all have a good day.

Awww, its nice to hear from you. Glad your ok. You have been missed. I think we all have our moments when we dont have time to come on. I know Im mspending far to much time online and I need to cut back as Its getting to the point where Im not getting things done. Need to sort our the place and have a proper clear out so I can keep myself busy. We know you care and think of us, so have huge respect for you. Just remember we think of you and miss u too.Hugs xx0 -
