    This move has taken it out of me. I have overdone things and our relationship is on the rocks. I feel neglected and invaded at the same time, if you see what I mean. I feel I am at rock bottom and degraded by him.

    Hiya,hope your feeling better. Im sorry to hear things are not to good at the moment. And I hope you get the chance to have a relaxing weekend as thats what you need. Moving is very stressful . I know this to well as I have moved several times over the years. It has taken its toll on me which is why Im partly depressed due to this. I am hoping,fingers crossed I will be moving again soon although I am dreading.Some may remember I went to view a place not long ago.Well that landlord who got my hopes up and promised we could move in has not bothered to contact me back.Im pretty angry that he promised infront of DS but it just goes to show some ppl have no consideration for others.Anyway a few weeks ago the council showed me a private rented property which was nice but rooms very small, still anywhere is better than where I am now.The council gave up on the landlord after he didnt provide the correct paper work but friday he found it and monday I should find out If I can move in it or not.
    I dont know If Im coming or going.Ive only been in this flat since november,It has made me so misrable and depressed living here but now Im probaly going to be moving I have to start all over again.The thought of doing all the packing,organising is to much for me to take in.I have so much stuff.I dont have my own fridge or cooker but washing machine,sofa,DS has more stuff than me than I knew of.I left so much stuff behind at my old home I dont want to do it again.I have packed loads of things but it looks so unorganised and messy.I cant pack properly.You would think with the amount of moving I have done that I would be an expert but truth is, I have always packed in a rush.If I get to get the keys monday, Im going to try and move the next day.
    Its horrible when the council string you along like this.Do they not know it takes time to pack?I dont have no one to help me,so I am doing this all alone,DS is off school too.It will give me oneday to get things sorted and I dont think I can do it.I wont have a landline, no broadband or anything.I know none of that is important just yet but all the gas and electric Im worried about. What if there is no electric or gas?Will they switch it on for us when we move if I ring them a day before?Then there is all the informing places of change of address, so many phone calls ect.Im sorry to mke you all feel even lower, I just feel under so much pressure.I have my course starting soon but I dont feel capable of coping with studying,moving,settling in, unpacking ect.
    Anyway am watching Doctor Who at the mo as DS loves it.Hope your all enjoying your weekend and all feeling better.hugs to u all xx

    I am feeling so fed up :( and just angry. It's been a pretty crap week. HR woman made me annoyed :mad: and told my manager that I'm difficult e.t.c I said to my manager that I don't want to keep going to occupational health appointments and don't understand how it is helping and that I would tell the Doctor this. She said to me you ask the Doctor why you're there and then she said she knew why and that was it :mad: The following day she has a go at me about my coursework. I am finding it difficult but I am trying my best and there is a lot of work involved. She was talking through something and then she said can i be honest with you, I said yeah, she says you don't come across as someone who actually wants to do this course argh!!! Just 'cos I'm struggling a little doesn't mean I don't want to do it!

    Next day the stupid guy I work with upset me. He knows I've been looking for somewhere to live and he was out with his friend who asked him whether he knew anyone that was looking to houseshare. He said he didn't mention me 'cos he didn't think it would be right or something. I said what do you mean. He said well you cut yourself and it wouldn't be fair if I didn't tell him seeing as I already know. He then said he would want to know if he was going to live someone like me :mad: I said I don't think it makes any difference and you don't just go up to ppl. living in a houseshare asking if they self-harm e.t.c He said well what would happen if he came back and there was blood everywhere or something happened to you and he was left to pay the rent by himself :mad: I was so upset and he knew I was. Later on he mumbled 'sorry' but I didn't want to know.

    My manager found out that we had had an arguement (we weren't talking to each other) and she was like he's said sorry, you're so stubborn e.t.c :mad: I said to her that what he said was out of order and if I had wanted to I could have reported him to someone in HR I don't know who and she just said where would that get you Grrrr! She was standing up for him saying X isn't a nasty person so I'm sure he didn't mean it.

    What is wrong with these people!!! :(:(:(

    Hi RBK, Im sorry to hear work is still causing stress for you. Did you go to the medical or did you manage to get the appointment changed?I do feel that the woman from HR is giving you a hard time. Is there someone else in HR you could try talking to? Maybe if she has a manager, you could try speaking to the manager of HR. You certainly dont need them adding to the problems you have had to go through.
    As for the friend that made that comment to you, it was harsh and he shouldnt of said that. I think you should still say your hello and bye but just keep it to that. Unles you feel he is a friend worth keeping. Hope you get things sorted out.Hugs xx

    hi diamond, hoping you get positive news from the council on monday, i know how stressful living in an awful place can be, i did it when my sons were younger. true, they don't give you long to pack, but i'm sure you'll cope.
    as regards the gas and electric give them a ring the day before just to check its turned on, and when you get in a new place take meter readings, so you only end up paying for what you have used.
    as for the informing everybody of your new address start making a list now, of everybody to be informed, sometimes we remember things later, and then they can be added to the list. i know its hard moving on your own, and if i lived near i would willingly give you a helping hand.
    rbk, sorry that your going through a difficult time right now, can you not speak to somebody higher up?
    right, off in bath shortly, been a long day, as both sons got up early to see what presents they had got for their birthday. praying for sun tommorrow, as hoping to take them out for day
    big hugs
