Anyone want to chat to me about anything? (MH related – support thread)

[MessyHairHelp]

My anxiety has been really bad recently for various reasons. I’ve finally stabilised but I’ve let myself go badly.

My hairs a mess; it’s very fine (always has been) and extremely knotted so I’m trying to deal with it a bit at a time with conditioner in.

But does anyone want to chat to me about anything while I’m here and feeling lonely?

About me:
Single parent DC is in bed (just 1 DC), my only pet died a few months ago which is what triggered a downward spiral. I’ve been to the doctors every week for the last few to stabilise and I’m ready to tackle the mess that is my hair, I know I’ll feel better for it.

I am happy to chat about anything and everything except my pet, I’m not ready to discuss that yet. But having someone anyone to chat to will help me tackle my hair.

Sympathy for tangled hair, I really should brush my hair properly every day but end up doing it about twice a week - at least 30 minutes each time

Sorry you're having such a hard time of it lately!! It being so close to Christmas always makes these feelings somehow so much more acute.

When you get your hair sorted will you think about adding some colour? I've recently been experimenting with streaks on blonde (have otherwise black curly hair) and it's kept me immensely occupied!

@Notnewbutveryold I always promise myself I'll do better and never do

@VladmirsPoutine Thank you, your post made me smile. I've thought about adding colour but never dared do it, now might be the time though.

I'm going to style it in some way when I've finally sorted it so it lasts a few days without needing to be brushed, its quite long so maybe a bun or something
