Hi @BlueBay
I hope you are feeling better today - it does take time to get over a stressful series of events as you have had lately - indeed - as I have had lately - and I am still feeling tired
Though the weather is warmer and I do more in warm weather than in cold weather - still I am feeling it right now
Starting a small puzzle is good - and also - having extra work hours before Christmas means you can use the money for gifts - I had this happen one year - I didn't have money for gifts but I got a job for a few hours one week would you believe - tasting chocolate for market research - and so everyone got presents - I even got one for myself
So yes - worry doesn't change much - concern can help us find a solution - make plans etc - but it sounds as if you had a good cry or something and you feel better - that's the way to go
I hope your day is the best it can be

I've had a bad day.
I went to the exercise class and I broke down after the education part. It was run by my dietitian. I think he knew I wasn't good. After the class he asked if I was going to the exercise class and I said no. He suggested I go fir a few minutes. As I got In there the guy who runs the group asked how I was. I told him not good and thst I was going hime. Not staying. He asked for a chst in private. I broke down telling him I'm all the negative words you can think of. I was broken. He listened and said he is here fir me. After 15 mins I decided I was going hime. He quickly spoke to my psychologist and she saw me fir 10 mins. She suggested I go home and stay active if I can. All I wanted to do was go home and be left alone.
I'm home outside drinking a coffee. The sun is nice and warm.
I feel like I'm never going to get better. I'm such a failure.

You’re far from a failure @BlueBay. Recovery is a long hard and lonely journey.
It sounds like you had some positive support today, from people who care very much about you.
A sit in the sun with coffee is a good place to be. Take care where you can. ❤️💚💛

Hey @MDT I'm sorry you're feeling like that too 😢
is it this time of year. Maybe??
I know I have to buy presents and food for Xmas day but don't have spare money to do it. So I bought a few things for little A - a little pool, a book and clothes. But. Need to buy fir my boys too. Might give them a voucher. It's too hard at their age. I think you're a similar age??
I'm just tired of all the crap. I'm tired of everything right now.
I think running away would be good.
idk I get so confused.
take care my friend
