****ty life

[blup]

In recent weeks yes I have, three times.
In 10 minutes they haven't answered the phone, each time.
That's counter productive, too.

A quick google suggests Samaritans annual income is about £25 million, while the RSPCA, another charity, raised around £150 million, Koolpc might be better off than he realises. Hopefully you will both get the right kind of support.

I've got rid of the Fat African squad. Jeez. I just lied, yes this, no to that.
Except when they asked if I would promise tocall an ambulance if I decided to end my life, I said I thought that would be counterproductive.
They said they couldn't get hold of me, but I'd replied to their phone messages judiciously, by text. "I'm OK".
They have been completely incompetent, in my view.
That started day one, when they said I had to recognize a "higher power". Same as the AA lot do.
Luckily she was just leaving, otherwise I'd have poked her 25 stone blubberousness out through the door with my four footed walking stick asap.

Who imposed them on you? Social services or NHS?

Well, I got a call from the council housing dept In Swansea saying I am being offered a flat and that I have to view it tomorrow at 2:30pm!!!!!!

Yes, I will go and view. 3.5hr drive to Swansea. I was visiting on Thurs to see my daughter but that's changed to tomorrow now.

But she said that I shouldn't move back because of her as she won't have much time for me. Living with my older brother is difficult due to his ways etc.....Smokes, likes TV loud, my bedroom in next room, he can be cruel, nasty too. So, that is making me think about moving back to Swansea. I don't know.

I will see the flat tomorrow and been told I need to decide there and then....

My brother won't accept rent money etc etc...he wants to pay for everything. I don't let him though. I sneakily buy things / pay for things without him knowing...

So, big decision for me yet again guys.

I had to leave my job to move to Devon. Possibility I could get it back.....

Can't believe how distant my daughter is towards me these days. They grow up so fast and want to head off on their own....

I don't know what to do guys.

Stay here or go back to Swansea. I am not happy about anything in my life at the moment guys. So much anxiety and depression. On new meds but not been on them long.

All I am after is peace in my life...sorry to moan.

It’s called growing up - she should have a life of her own and you should respect that and be happy for her. That and she could possibly be trying some tough love out on you to give you some independence. Take the flat. Get a job. Join some clubs or societies etc. Meet people other than those you are related to.

THIS!!


Swansea has its merits. Hope it looks reasonable for you.
I would expect a ton of problems down the line, living with your brother.
Good luck.

National Hopeless Service. Home Treatment Service. I think my GP pressed a big red button.

I'd move back mate, nothing like your own place.

My son is 21 he texts me a lot and I see him most weeks ish but hes got his own life as has your daughter.....let them live it I say.

Everyone has their own lives, everyone has their own problems too. The problem as I see it is that you are too dependant on your daughter and she needs to get on with her own life as you may be a problem to her by your being too needy. I always think it is nice to see your kids maybe once a week and maybe the odd phone call in between, any more than this and you could become a pain rather than pleased to see you. It doesn't mean she doesn't want to see you but maybe a little less than you would want to see her. You need to give her more space in my opinion, you need to get your own life in order and start to enjoy life but not to use your daughter as a crutch.
