Looking after ourselves

Re: Caring for the carer

I'm sorry you are feeling this way @Appleblossom - it sounds like a lot to sit with. I have sent you an email just to check in with you privately so if you could respond when you can that would be much appreciated.

Sitting with and sending you hugs,

Re: Caring for the carer

Thank you for allowing me to express my anxiety and support on forum and email @tyme @FloatingFeather @Shaz51 Yesterday I was so anxious and si was flying.

 

I ended up having a lovely evening and my son went out had a good night too.  Issues around acceptance and belonging are huge for me.  Working on standing up for myself with humour and directness is slowly having good effects in my relationships and I am not simply in submission mode but a full player.

Re: Caring for the carer

@Appleblossom sorry for the late reply. Glad things were a bit better. Yes, I had struggled with boundaries/ submitting to the point of losing myself. Hearing you there. Glad to hear full player mode is being engaged.

Re: Caring for the carer

Encouragement is always appreciated.

Thank you @tired_sisyphus 

 

I can so relate to your name.

How are things in your life?
