Only posting this so nobody can see me crying in real life. Emotional wrecks assemble.

Is anyone else a simpering wreck at the moment? I’m normally not, but have had a very tough few weeks (death of a beloved pet, a scary medical diagnosis, family shit going on).

Scared myself a few night ago when I burst into tears during sex. Actual sobbing, snotty, hiccuppy wailing. My poor husband got the fright of his life thinking he’d hurt me.

Thought to myself “right, obviously a bit of an emotional build-up that needed to be released, back to normal now”.

Nope.

Came out for a nice walk today and am in the park with a coffee. Sitting on a bench enjoying the peace and a string quartet has just started up near me and they’re doing Colours of the Wind from fucking Pocahontas and now I’m off again Hmm

FFS.

Damned talented musical bastards using their art to illicit emotions in me. Grr.

I’m similar right now.

Visited my Dad for a week for the first time in 4 years (he does come over here but only for a day or two), and haven’t stopped crying since I got back on Wednesday, because I want my Dad.

I’m 34 with 3DC of my own but nah I’m gonna sit here and sob multiple times a day because I want my Dad Blush

In fairness I’m having a shit time right now, been served a S21, had to quit working to be a full time carer for DC2, am desperately trying to move to be in my Dads beautiful coastal town, but it’s almost impossible because I’m on benefits.

YES!! I just started a thread about this exact thing! It's in Chat, called How Can I Cheer Up?

I 100% sympathise.

They stared in on Moon River so I had to make an exit.

Sorry to everyone else going through a hard time. Life can be shit.

OP, you could almost be me, recent death of DCat, death of a long gone EXH which has caused all kinds of family shit, unreasonable exclusion from a DD's life and terrible sadness in the news recently. I'm bursting into tears at all sorts of things and having nightmares too, I know they say all things pass but I wish this sorry state would just do one!

Hope you soon feel happier.

Yes! I actually gave myself a headache from crying and speaking to solicitors and private medical providers all day yesterday.

Top tips are sleep as much as you need - allow more sensory support than usual, its good for your body and soul in a way you cant appreciate. Warm bath, big hug, windy walk, candles etc. Bit of hygge. Feed your soul.
