thanks poppycracker xxx A think, a trip to the local country park with my Daughter is in order .. some nice fresh air, feed the ducks and an ice cream might be just the thing I need today ... Pray for loads of shade for me, so as I don't overheat again!

Lots of shade coming your way kaz..... or, I just thought, would taking a brolly help? May look silly but might help to keep you cool? Anyway, have a good day with the ducks

Well another day and the suns shinning, but it isn’t making me feel any different. In fact the warm weather isn’t helping me keep cool .. I have been told some two years ago I am pre menopausal, what ever that means, and that I can’t have any sort of medication or help until the menopause is full blown? Could take 10 years the Female Dr told me! … So hot sweats galore for me!!! .. I can’t afford any sort of herbal remedies as I am a lone parent on Income support, so moneys tight, any spare cash I do ever have I spend on my daughter, clothing etc … I feel so so selfish and indulgent feeling like this .. I have three beautiful kids .. 2 grown up, and left home and one little girl still only 8 with me .. Also a little grandson with another grandchild on the way ... my life is slow and uncomplicated .. But all the same I can’t seem to function properly and have no drive to do anything apart from the housework and looking after my littleun. I can’t be bovered to even call or talk to the very few family & friends I have, the phone stays unplugged more than connected these days .. What’s that all about? … I am not sure whether to return to Dr’s and talk about going on some sort of medication again .. I am just totally in a haze at the mo .. thanks for Listening x

Hi kaz , maybe you might like to treat yourself to something , a little bit of retail therapy or the like,do you have nights out,i remember how differcult it is to get a baby sitter you can trust(and afford) but you need your own space away from all the duties and responsibilities now and then.

regards

Andy

:hello: Sorry that I haven't posted for a while. I have read all the posts even though I haven't commented.

A big to all the new posters I hope you get lots of support.

Things haven't been too bad lately. I think the medication prevents me from getting so low. I haven't self-harmed or overdosed, so yeah, I'm pleased with myself.

Work is keeping me occupied. It's very busy, there is just so much to do. It's quite rewarding though and I do like being able to help others.

I'm still going to the gym twice a week. I really enjoy my workout.

I hope you've all had a good day and enjoyed the lovely weather.

Hey, its nice to hear from you! Glad to see that you're feeling okay, and well done for not self harming or overdosing. (hugs) x x

hi all

well, I'm back down in the dumps again. OH is being totally over the top, it's like he's bouncing off the wall and he just does my head in. I think he's drinking again although he says he isn't.

My head is saying he's only trying to cheer me up, but all I want him to do is leave me alone!!!! Although woe betide if I say that, because then he gets in a bad mood and starts snipeing at me which makes me worse.

Oh dear, this is all about me isn't it :rolleyes:

Hi all the people that came here today, (((((all))))) hope you are feeling better for reading the thread, I did when I joined.

:hello: poppycracker, how are you feeling today? (hugs) have you talked to your oh about drinking? sometimes being by yourself is just the thing you need, rather than to be sat with someone and be in a bad moood... you know? keep that chin up x
