I haven't seen this friend in a few years as we live hours apart but last week she said she had the weekend off work and would like to come visit my city and catch up with me / see my new baby.

I was thrilled at the time and said I'd love to so we arranged it for tomorrow.

I have existing MH problems which have been fluctuating since I had my baby but I've woken up today really struggling. I'm super anxious to the point of feeling ill, crying on and off, I'm not 'with it' at all and I'm disassociating alot. Just not in any state to be having days out to be honest.

I feel horrid for even considering to cancel but I just can't face it.

I've just googled the M&M store, hell will freeze over before I go in there 😄

Honestly it was like a modern form of torture even before dd spilled her entire tub of M&Ms on the floor. A staff member just walked over and swept them into a trough that runs round the room - clearly its a common occurance. I can only hope they bin the ones that end up in the trough.

Yay OP well done. Remember this for next time. I've got a similar thing to do tomorrow that I don't want to do but I know I need to push myself through. This has inspired me so thank you!
