    Sorry to hear to hear your feeling down. A lot of us are like that today.It must be a mixture of heat and it being friday. I didnt get to sleep till gone 3 in the morning.Cried and cried and feel so weak,I have no energy what so ever.I try to be ok around my son as it upsets him if he sees me cry.
    Please dont sh, play your game as that will take your mind of things.Thats what i do, it takes my mind off the thinking for a while.
    Going to go bed soon as have such a bad migrane.

    I doubt I'm going to get to sleep tonight. I always have problems sleeping, and the hot weather doesn't help.

    I'm sorry you're feeling down. :([[hugs]] Just remember that you are a brilliant mum and a lovely, wonderful person.

    I'm trying with all my might not to sh. My incentive at the moment is that I have way too many scars. I don't even feel comfortable wearing short sleeves anymore because of them. Having new cuts and scars is going to make me feel 10 times worse, but then I always do it now where no one will ever have a chance of seeing them. I'm always in long sleeves and if I do wear skirts I wear thick tights with them so no one can see my legs. I'm ashamed of my scars and how I got them. I don't want to feel ashamed anymore. :(

    I hope your migraine goes soon hun. They are no fun whatsoever. I hope you have a good sleep. [[hugs]]

    I'm off now everyone. I might be back later, depending on whether I can sleep or not.

    Lots of sparkly love and many hugs.

    My migrane wont go, my ears a re blocked and its that time of the month. Im under so much stress. I am really panicky at the mo. I know what you mean about the scars.When i went docs today he was shocked when he saw my arms.If i wear a short sleeve top I get looks from my scars, If i wear long sleeve top I get looks again for having a long sleeve top on in this heat.I told doc I wanted to sh but I couldnt coz my son would notice and i have run out of excuses to him about my scars.I braved it today and wore a tshirt and again all the mums up the school was oking, well some not all.Iget very paranoid about my arms. Its not fairwhen ppl are so judgemental.
    I hope you get some sleep hun.

    Eek. Sounds like you're "in the wars" (as one of my dear friends would say. :)). It's that time of the month for me too, which makes a change, seeing as my periods are very irregular. Do you get lower back ache with yours? I do, and it's very painful.

    My doctor was shocked too, and whilst she didn't say anything, I could see it in her eyes. The only reason she saw was because she wanted to check my blood pressure and I had to lift my sleeve up. In the past people have turned their nose up at me because of my scars, or assumed I was an attention seeker. Now, if I was an attention seeker, I would be going around saying "Look at my fresh cuts. Look what I did"and proudly wearing them for all the world to see etc, well in my opinion anyway. But I don't. I don't want anyone to know, and not many people do. I feel able to open up about it on here because you all understand what it's like. People around here where I live don't. They see scars and immediately jump to their own conclusions. People can be so judgemental and it makes me so sad. :( We shouldn't have to put up with their glaring eyes. It's bad enough feeling ashamed and anxious, without other people adding to it.
