Un pc thoughts
So im writing this just to get it out. I dont really expect a solution. Apologise in advance if the un pc nature of this is not nice. I am getting a counsellor soon. Ive been aware all along that ...

Hi @Kiki_Dances60,
I sort of went the otherway and gave lots of info. I still post some stuff. I think people feel bad for you and dont know what to do with it when really what you need is people to listen. They also feel guilty sharing their stuff because there lives still go on and they dont want to winge. Just yesterday a friend of mine posted a there is always someone worse off post and she chose a man who had half his body amputated. She had said above it, we know you are suffering the worst if all of us. My response was its not a competition. Its all realative and acknowledging that being a parent is hard. Ive had to say sometimes listening not problem solving or offering postive words is all i need.
My brother rang me out of the blue yesterday for a chat. He has been very absent i realised he has some stresses i understood and we talked through them. Its a relief to help others with their issues.
