Ive been in hospital a few times recently, and am presently waiting for another operation, and to be honest I'm not stressing over it. I've already had theee operations cancelled at the last moment, but the fact that I've waited sixteen months for it, I just want it over and done with. Years...

Quote.............".I can't leave the house and haven't worked for months." I went through all that about eighteen months ago, my depression, confidence and anxiety dropped to rock bottom? I just couldnt leave the house, and when I forced to, to buy food, (I live alone) I used to physically...

Quote.........."The only things that seem to help me, is forcing myself to do the things I don't want to do. Keeping a schedule," That's exactly what I feel I have to do when the darkness comes down upon me? I force myself to keep going, even though my body hurts like Hell, I keep at it. It's...

I knew something was wrong with me but I didn't have a clue what it was? At the time I was so busy caring for my late wife, to worry about myself, so I just put it down to tiredness and fatigue. Then my late wife noticed my sudden mood changes, and my short temper, (not with her) if someone...

I wish I could control my anger, it just flares up at the slightest provocation! It's just as well that I'm able to calm down quickly. Thing is, I never used to be like that, it used to take quite a lot to "set me off" I don't really know when this change happened to me, it seems like another...

Getting out of hospital and coming home.

Greatful that I got my heating repaired, it's working fine now, well worth the money it cost me, which was quite a lot? About half the price of a new boiler?

If your partner wants so much "space" why don't you just do exactly that? Go out on your own more, stop being there just to get "told off and bullied" Don't make yourself be so available, then see what happens, good luck.

Getting my car fixed, as that is my indelendance, my freedom. Just knowing it's there makes me feel good. The fact that I can get into it and drive away, boosts my confidence a great deal. I just love driving, being out on the roads, with the world rushing by, always gives me a nice feeling.

Welcome to the site Kormic, maybe if you had therapy about what happened in your childhood, that could help with your feelings about p**n in general. It wouldn't stop your bad memories about it, but at least it might save your relationship with boy boyfriend, as I don't think he will change his...

I was greatful for the chat I had with one of the cancer councillors I saw at the Maggies Centre yesterday. I had only popped in for a cuppa after I had been told my operation cancelled, as I had been fasting for the past twelve hours, and was dying for a cup of tea. She was the first person I...

After I left the hospital this morning, I drove to the drive through car wash and got the full treatment for £5, then dried off all the door edges when I got home, It was too cold to do the whole car? Just as well, as it rained a few hours later! So the car got a treat instead of me. Lol

That attack in London made me really angry today, as it's yet another cowardly attack on innocent people. My heart goes out to all the families who lost loved ones today. It seems that nowhere is save any more?

What makes me feel worse about what happened was, my two daughters from my first marriage both cut all ties with me, after the divorce was finalised, and that was over 20 years ago now? So, I came to think that my second wife's family had accepted me, and made me believe that I was part of the...

Although at times I feel lonely, I'm just so glad to have cut all ties with my late wife's family! Especially when I think back over all these years, when I thought they had accepted me, and when I think of everything I did for them, over that time as well. They all turned against me during the...

I tend to give myself a pat on the back when I achieve something I've set out for myself to do. Or when I manage to overcome a mood that has threatened to spoil my day, or kept my short temper in check, when I've felt that frustrated that I just wanted to "lose it" with someone who has really...

Looking back in it now, do you think it was too soon for him to move in with you? Do you think that his two kids were happy living there with you and their father? I remember when my late wife wanted her youngest son to come and live with us, he was thirteen at that time. He told me, when we...

I'm just grateful that I had the energy to wash my car today. It took me a while to do, but I got it done in the end. It was cold out there, but was I determined to achieve something today.

Even if I did find a friend, it would be a long time before I could trust them?........... .........I think thats due to my confidence taking such a knock when I was so badly stabbed in the back by all my late wife's family.................. ..........I don't think I will ever...

I'm in the same situation really, as our disability benefit used to be called DLA (disability living allowance) and once you had been on it a few years, you got put on it indefinitely, which meant we never had to be assessed every year. This is now being changed to PIP (personal indepandant...

I made the best of the good weather and pottered about outside digging up, and replanting the Bluebells that were growing under neath the wheel chair ramp. They were the ones I missed last year when I did the rest of them.
