I am broken.
I feel like Humpty cant put me together again at the moment.
This is not helped by the fact I am not sleeping properly to the degree I am finding things very difficult.
I upset someone on MSE.

If it's the posts I saw from a few days ago, then I agreed with you 100%. You give so much support to people on here, and we are never all going to have the same opinion.
I hope you had a better nights sleep and feel a bit better today."Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee5 -
I'm sorry you're feeling so bad Beanie. You do so much good to so many people and I know you would never offend anyone on purpose, so please try not to worry about it. These things just happen sometimes. Put it all behind you and don't think about it. I'm really pleased that you're having physio again. It's lovely that you saw your mum and DS too
