Remember SF, that all the best performers_pale_ suffer stage fright....thinking of you & sending good vibes for tonight.

Thanks BMF, I'm playing in an orchestra tonight and I dont get nervous when there's more than one person - i get such a buzz from playing! A natural high and all. Now, if its just me on the piano doing a recital, that's a different question - I get so nervous I shake. lol. Thanks though x

Hi Tiff
sorry for delay replying went away for the weekend stayed in a caravan it was just what I needed were the only one in the field peace and quiet!!

OH has been off work on and off for the past 3 years .
first with depression -4 to 5 months off ,
just getting back on our feet then broke his hip off again for 27 weeks so didnt qualify for help . he just had ssp.
More pressure on me to keep our heads above water !!!

Now this year been off since july will hopefully go back in a month so havent been able to claim anything just ssp which is why I went from part to full time in May .
got turned down for time off so worked long days and days off to get time offf when he came home wore my self out !!
Never applied for carers allowance still waiting to see if the mortgage protection will pay out they did last time but not sure this time !!

I work for ss !! adults with learning disabilties.
They want to get me back after 6 weeks can they force me as I might not be ready ?
I'm ok with help for dd thanks .

Dh has had no help been on prozac for 3 years now never offered councilling quite self obsessed where my problems are at moment.
Keeps calling me terrible names which doesnt help my situation .

He puts on me to do everything and doesnt have a care in the world think that is my problem I just couldnt cope .
In laws even told me I was doing too much and to slow down but no one would help to relieve the strain !!

not feeling quite as bad today as you said take every day as it comes.
thanks for the support
"chat" soon

hiya everyone

Sorry my last post was so depressing.. I didn't mean it to be.

I've not been to see daughter because I think I'd have killed her if I had. Yesterday I transferred £20 to her account so she could buy toiletries and things, then her father visited her and gave her £10 and also took her out and bought her all of those things, plus some new clothes. So she had £30 of free money right.. then last night she was calling and calling me asking for more money so I said no, what she had should be more than enough for the week and so she got p1ssy and eventually hung up on me. Then at around 10pm last night I get a phone call from the nurse, daughter has passed out drunk in a chicken shop and they can't keep her if shes intoxicated, would I be willing to go and collect her (bear in mind I live nearly 2 hours away and don't have a car) So after a bit of ringing around to see could I get a lift I rang them back and said no, let the police have her cos a night in the cells might do her good and teach her something.

I dint' hear anymore then til late morning when she rang again demanding more money. I refused and also said I wasn't going to go and see her because I was upset and disappointed in her cos of last night. So now she's getting her friends to prank call me :rolleyes:

We have a meeting tomorrow with all the professionals and then in the evening one of the psychologists is going to my mum's house to see where she decorated the walls of her bedroom and ensuite with blood :eek: not sure why he wants to see it just doesn't take our word for it but there you go. So we'll see what happens after that.

Take care and big huggs all of you xxxxxxxx
