    Well the chicken is cooked but I am in dire straights. Has to go to bed because everything is fuzzy and moving. Every muscle I own is sore. My neck hurts to turn. My teeth hurt. The sound of the clock ticking is giving me a headache and I’m freezing cold. “You’re getting a dose I’d say” is Florence nightingale downstairs diagnosis. He’s down there making me a hot whiskey ��. I got him a good bottle for Xmas so he better not be fobbing me off with the cheap stuff on my death bed

    A smoke??? Jesus it just shows about perceptions of people from internet. I had you pegged as a very healthy clean living type person!!!!
    Ya need to gove those things up Mam! :pac:


    I'm a smoker myself btw so not judging. The vaping kits are good if ya get the right one. Using that myself at the mo and was off them for a while but stupid vape thing started malfunctioning so smoked yesterday and today, getting a better Vape soon. But they do actually work (imo)

    Friend of mine told me of her suicide attempt today as well. Not unexpected but her story how it came to it is. There really is pure evil in the world at times.

    She's OK now, but thats now.
    Having a beer, bit morose.

    Good luck mate! Strongly recommend the vape to help. I know it's a bit hard to try something dfferent but they really do help imo. Plus motivation of having a daughter and grand-kids who need you around!
    Plus for me, it was amazing to go a while where I could walk into the shop and buy things I actually wanted instead of 13 quid every two days for stuff thats killing me!
    Good luck anyway! :cool:

    Fireside after a day spent out in the rain - my hairdresser couldn’t stop laughing when I arrived into the salon like a wet rat in my wellies! Thinking of wherers going through a tough time. Thinking of Duvet & her hot date (tbh, I added the “hot”!)

    I'm so sorry. It affects everyaspect of your life. Work and relationship and your mental clarity and your energy is going into enduring or defending against their behaviour.

    I honestly didn't cope. I had to work through serious issues with trust this year. I was convinced everyone was going to turn bad. I hope that he doesn't keep it up much longer because I would hate for anyone to end up like that.

    Big hugs Xxx

    Thank you Widders.

    Yeah. It’s just a thing. I want to help. My terror is that he will be too alone and do something stupid, and I could have helped. It was quite a while since we had contact, and I was just assuming he was ok, so was a bit of a shock.

    But then I’m thinking at the moment, I’m some helper person who actually isn’t helping that much and maybe I’m being an enabler where I can say the words or loan the money or just keep somebody’s bad spiral going.

    Jaysus. So good that I’m not a parent!!!

    Big hugs to you too. XX

    Bad humour.

    Started off 2020 on a fitness vibe but hurt my back some way and could barely walk all week. I could barely drive the car.

    Have to just accept it as a setback and start a few weeks later.

    Wine is helping.

    You need to get this person to go to see a professional psychotherapist and psychiatrist. That's how you help.

    Because it's a dangerous situation if they're borderline suicidal and you're taking on their issues single handedly. If the worst happens one day then you'll take on some of the blame, you're already showing signs of that.
    So you need to urge them to seek professional help to help them and also relieve the burden a bit from yourself.
    Then keep being there for them too but at least you're not responsible.

    Thanks NewRed2. Yah. They had a therapist and I’m just trying to get him to ring a hotline at the moment for somebody who can give better advice. It’s just kicking off a bit.

    Horizontal on the sofa at home, watching TV with the OH.

    Cooked a huge omelette and sautéed potatoes for dinner earlier and went to see 1917 in the Lighthouse cinema with a couple of mates before that. Excellent film - well worth a watch.

    Still chuffed about my short stories being published in the book entitled What I Know Now.

    Anyone who’s interested in a copy, feel free to PM me! :D

    On the couch watching something the OH chose on Netflix (not liking it hence I'm on my phone on boards!) did something to my back, feel like an old man.(well older than I really am!).

    Had very little cheese last month, making up for it tonight (with wine).

    There could be a crisis nurse to phone at the local health centre. Someone who can step in and hopefully offer help. Although when I phoned I got no.answer! I did get through later in that day but it was worrying considering it's meant to be for crisis.
