feeling blue

2 minute read time.

Well,i went to bed the last two nights feeling shit because of the Danielle carry on and in a horrible way feel relieved that the problem has been taken out of my hands now as she has left the site.I woke this morning and cried,cried about everything really,how sad i felt over the Danielle fiasco,scared about my future health,felt really down as i had parents evening the other night and was told that Logan put my name down as a helper for the class trips but they picked someones grandad as he is more able than me.....made me feel shite. I am worried sick about Christmas and i know that the way money is in my house that my children will not be having the kind of christmas that they are used to and this uspets me with all they have been through this year,Billy is still out of work but is looking,Daniel is a lazy bum who has had one job interview in the six months he has been unemployed and doesnt seem to be looking for work anywhere,i know its hard as we look o the net every day and some jobs on Gumtree have been viewed up to 800 times so what hope do we have? I applied for a job doing data imput as its was local and part time and i feel at least one of us would be working but really mentally im in no state to work and ive got another op to face in the new year but god i have to do something.I have cried on and off most of the day and my mum came up and i got angry with her as she said im a doormat and the reason i have nothing is that i let the kids walk all over me and im too soft with everything,i also told her about the Danielle thing and she said i should stay away from the net and try get out more and meet people face to face.She also said i need to go back on some sort of anti depressant and quickly. I feel honestly that billy doesnt help me at times,when im down he just lets me be like that,he doesnt encourage me to do anything,lets me sit about all day in yesterdays pj's unwashed and eating shit,where i sometimes wish he would shout at me and tell me to have a shower and get my ass in gear,even make me go out for a walk with the dogs,but he doesnt and i spend loads of time just now sitting about the house feeling sorry for myself,what a depressing blog this is,but really what is the point??

    Leigh, I hope you're not still in your pj's!  Tell you what, both of us now... up off the settee, leads on the dogs, lets go for a walk round the block.  Smell the air, listen to the fireworks going off (still? why?), let the dogs sniff at every lamp post, gate post and corner, see how much enjoyment thay get from the littlest things in life and wish that we were both dogs (no funny comments, please!).  A bit of fresh air will do us the world of good, and while we're walking, let's just think of each other and the other great people on this site, and forget about the upset of the last few days.  Go on, I'll give you a head start... 5, 4, 3, 2, 1......

    Leigh apparently I am a fabulous nag so you can use me if you like!

    Its been a rotten few days on here for people who invested time and energy in the whole debarcle - notice how she has left Facebook too now!!!

    However, we live and learn and as I said to Angela, some of us lovely people would do it all again if we thought we were helping them.  Cos we are gooduns mate and thats what we do.  Don't beat yourself up over it, you are worth more than that!

    Take care,

    Debs xx

    Dear Leigh I am really sorry you are feeling this way but please dont dwell on the Danielle situation. Whatever has/hasnt happened has happened (if that makes sense) you need to concentrate on you. Your blog isnt depressing either, I always like it when I see one of yours and always read them. I think the point of blogging is its a release, a way of getting of your chest whatever you need to without any of the 'reaction' of face to face contact with another person. Its no holds barred and very liberating for us cancer people as we all know it can be hard to say what you need to. Keep with it things will definately blow over and get better. chin up hun!!

    Love Chrissixxx

    Hi Leigh,

    Come on bird, you and me got things to do in this life ahead of us! Yep, sometimes life is shite and the people around us don't help but you've got real friends on here who will be with you through thick and thin.

    Writing a blog is about saying what the hell you want to say, good or bad, happy or sad. We have all been there and know what it's like. That, babe is, is the point! :-)

    Sending big hugs
