Hi - I’m new, and not really sure what to do here haha.
Honestly just looking for some people sharing a similar experience as me, I feel so unbelievably isolated in my community. And that isn’t anyones fault obviously, I’m 18 caring for my mum, none of my friends can really relate to that even though they’re doing so incredibly at supporting me. It’s literally just me and her, and I’m trying my absolute hardest to be the best I can for her but realising I’m slowly neglecting myself. Obviously I can’t talk to her about any of this, she literally has cancer lol she isn’t in a place to support me and how I’m feeling. It’s all just incredibly overwhelming. She’s been diagnosed with breast cancer for the second time. I’m doing all the cooking, cleaning, walking the dog, food shops, on top of trying to balance my a levels, and be there emotionally for her, which is honestly the hardest bit. Seeing the woman I love most in the world breakdown crying everyday because she feels ugly after the surgery is really really difficult. I think she’s so beautiful, but she won’t hear that from me haha. I’m in a really really low point emotionally, just wondered if anybody would wanna talk who understands. I’m also here to listen to what you need to get off your chest.
Have a nice day :)
