After years of rough times
Family illness
Sad deaths in my family
dv

Life is now not bad thankfully

But I always have some kind of a worry

So at the moment
My bloody boss has not been approving my timesheets in time
So another week no pay

Don't want to piss her off by saying something but she should know this

It's keeping me awake and really really putting me over the edge

How about you?
How do you manage ?

Some times I think ok
So no pay
Maybe borrow money from family?
Won't be that bad

I mean it is a bit shit
But at least I have work

Having some serious harassment problems from neighbours. It’s causing me a lot of stress and is making me feel very miserable. I don’t want to be forced out of the home I love because of these very nasty people.

My car needs repairs and I've booked it in, but can't afford it, so will have no money for the next two weeks. It's not too bad, I've some food in and it's just for me, so I don't mind living off pasta for a while, but I've tickets to go to a concert at the weekend and will be expected to go for a meal with friends beforehand. I think I'm going to take all my spare change down to the bank and hope I can scratch enough together for the night.

I struggle every month with money, can't cut back anymore and I'm tired of it, but I know it's just how it is for many of us.

My ds and his mental health. He's also going abroad with the school very soon and I'm worried.

The commute to work. My driving anxiety has really flared up and I feel ill every morning (and night).

Money. I did not dare check my bank balance when I used the cash machine today.

Noticed our dog is looking a bit thin this past couple of days and now I've started thinking there is something seriously wrong. DD also commented on him tonight. Am on Mumsnet as needed to distract myself from googling doggy diseases😔

Weird situation with male friend - sad at highly likely prospect of losing my best friend but have prioritised my own marriage. It's terribly sad though.

General dislike of my own gilded cage career. Trapped due to security/wage but desperately unhappy.

Mum will receive health results on Friday. Worried most about this.

I had a hospital appointment last Friday to go on the list for cataract surgery which I'm actually looking forward to. I am also taking eye drops to treat high eye pressure
I was then told by the Dr than I have myopic macular degeneration which means my vision will gradually decline

Mostly money. I live with adult ds and we both work full time but this week is hard.
Petrol down to reserve fuel. Credit card maxed. Payday on Thursday thank God but car needed new alternator and battery last month so have been poor for ages.

Sick of toast and pasta but know at least we have food.

Ds following situation in Russia so on high alert about that.

Mum is 82 and lives 500 miles away and had 3 health scares this year. The worst one was a stroke where she called me and all I could hear was her crying and making gurgling noises. The fantastic ambulance service were there 30 minutes after I called them (from a different country). Its just a constant worry.

It's nearly 2 years since my lovely dad passed away suddenly in his sleep and I just feel sad sometimes.

My bloody depression which I fight constantly. I feel it waiting in the wings and I m scared to go back to that dark lonely place again.

My daughter- suffering with her mental health and I've had to make a decision to discontinue A levels until she's in a better place.

Husbands health issues but he just won't take control of his diet and exercise and it's frustrating.

How we will afford mortgage next year with increase.
