    I absolutely hate spiders too, and I don't feel at all guilty for killing them, they make me petrified and if you don't kill them they will be back......................

    They're so.....eurgh. My bedroom leads out into the garden so it's inevitable I'll get some but they scare the living daylights out of me and they are so big.

    Heya Alba. :wave:

    The spider caught me off guard as the first time I saw it I was tidying underneath my bed and it sort of jumped out at me. The fact that the spider blends in with the carpet doesn't help.lol. Then I was sitting watching Loose Women and I saw it scuttling along the floor. I truly hate them. My instinct is to kill them, and then I feel so guilty for killing a living thing. :(

    awww, poor you. I'm ok with spiders, (maybe cause I've never had one in my house!?) but wasps do it for me so I understand where you're coming from. I can kill a wasp, but not much else. I would get it (a spider) in a bit of paper or something and throw it out the window, easier said than done, I know, and not sure I could do it with a big one. If I was nearer I would have done my best to get it away from you.

    I don't know how I can make things better here, shes threatening to smash up the house, burn down the house, angry at everything. I'm afraid, shes talking about my little sister as if she hates her and I don't know what to do. I've had a word with my sister warning her to keep out of my mums way but I don't know what to do. She'll be worse if I ask anyone for help. She says that if she goes to the doctor all her money will be taken away, I don't understand how it works disability/incapacity or sick or whatever it is she might get

    Meyore sweetie, I'm so sorry things are hard for you. I wish I could offer some advice, but I'm afraid I can't. Maybe a post in the Benefits section would help? They've been helpful when I've posted there before. Its not the same, and no where near as bad as what you are going through, but I had a tough childhood with my Mum - she is a recovering alcoholic, and wasn't very sober when I was growing up! It was scary being at home sometimes, everything I did was wrong, she hated me and would snap at the slightest thing.

    Alba - I am terrified of wasps too.lol. They really scare me. I'm thinking of getting one of those door shield things for the summer so that if I have the door open, they don't come in.
    Many a time I've had to vacate my bedroom because a wasp has got in and started trying to attack me.lol.

    Ok hunnie - what's going on?
    I can tell you right now that I can't think of a situation where she would lose benefits, even if she was admitted to hospital angel.
    What's the situation now? Has everything calmed down?sLo_hug2.gif
    Much Love,

    Shes asleep now, which is a relief I wish I could. She threw a few things around but then just sat there. I got her ex round because he knows how to handle it and I couln't cope alone.

    Shes self-employed but has been unable to work since last month. The doctor wouldn't sign her off so shes getting no money. Shes afraid that if my doctor does sign her off she'll lose tax credits. My head hurts too much to work it out :o xx

    Hi meyore!:hello:
    I'm glad things have calmed down hunnie and that's probably the best way to leave things for her and yourselves, at this late hour. You're top of my list tomorrow hun ok? Something's got to give here before it implodes. If you can tell me how old you and your sister are and what the general situation is, I'll do my best to see what I can do suggestion wise in the a.m., if that's ok? Meanwhile, if you guys get the least bit frightened angel, call the police.sLo_hug2.gif
