To ask what your biggest problem in life is at the moment

New bathroom needed
dh needs a car

I’m in 35k of credit card debt and spend every waking moment worrying about money. All my own fault so nothing I can do really. Reading some of the responses on here really puts my problem into perspective - sending everyone so much love.

Hi @naturalcrackle111 my BF , her boys both had this - one had quite a lot of allergies which they gradually worked through and since he’s cut out is much better. She had to bandage them both every night / it was heartbreaking.
I thought you’d want to know they’re both now grown up brilliant men, look amazing, glowing, healthy, sporty, great jobs and relationships. you will get through it, take each day as it comes and worth exploring allergies. good luck xxxx

My 13 year old nephew unexpectedly died in April, just after his birthday and before our trip to Disney. My children are completely broken especially my 14 year old. They were best friend, raised together like siblings. I genuinely loved that boy like my own. My sister is a single mum and he was her entire world. My entire family is devastated and I can't help anyone. My 6ft 3 son woke me up in a state the other night and I sat on the stairs and held him while he sobbed in my arms. I'm so worried about them all, I wish I could do something.

My controlling partner, I’d love to not tread on egg shells and feel anxious daily

So sorry to hear, that is devastating 🙁

I’m so so sorry. this happened to a friend of mine, to her nephew… tho it doesn’t sound like the families were as close as yours. It sounds so difficult @naturalcrackle111
I just wanted to say that the whole family had grief counselling collectively and individually and it did help the younger ones a lot.

LA attempting to water down my SEN DD's EHCP (which I spent two years fighting for) at annual review, plus she was totally overwhelmed at a mainstream high school open day. Maybe other's will be better, but they'll all be too big and noisy, and there's no obvious alternative as she's too academic for special schools.

Divorce now that my husband has finally admitted he’s not in love with me anymore after a year of separation and hope.
No job, no house, no local friends, fat, depressed, and have EUPD.

hope you get your new bathroom and car sorted.

Worried I'll be made redundant.

Compared to some of the challenges on here it seems trivial. 2014 was one hell of a year for my family and I've always appreciated the good times since.

Wishing everyone strength to cope x

If you can, please get a second opinion. The same thing happened to me at the start of this year. I love my car but they were telling me no more repairs and said it wasn't worth it. Went somewhere else on the off chance and they fixed it for less than half of what the first place quoted me!

I have a lot of trauma in my past and lack quite a few things many people might take for granted - living/supportive parents or good relationships with siblings - I’m an only child with one dead parent and one I no longer see (addiction issues/abusive behaviour). DH’s family is also a shit show of dysfunction 🤪

But reading some of the daily challenges people are facing on here makes me realise how good we have it in our own immediate family unit. I guess my most pressing worries at the moment are money/our financial future and my career, which is at a bit of a scary make or break stage…

I've read every post and my heart breaks for those suffering. I really wish you some relief Is you struggles

I don't really have problems currently but I know life can usually turn in an instant. Happiness is not a permanent state and mine can vanish tomorrow.

I've got Covid for the first time and feel terribly unwell - the continuous cough is wearing me out and stopping me sleep. I just want to feel normal again!

OMG my heart goes out to your family. How cruel life can be.

So deep in grief from my 21 year old daughter who passed away suddenly 8 months ago. I will never be the same person I was before. I’m sad 50% of the time and less sad the other 50% .

My DH left for another woman recently. This feels like absolute child's play after reading this thread. My absolutely wonderful mother is starting a very familiar journey into Alzheimer's, in the footsteps of her parents, which is a grief I can't even begin to face.

My health is gradually getting worse, with perimenopause symptoms that are exacerbating my movement disorder symptoms too.

I was the picture of health a decade ago, ran half marathons, slim, ate well.

Now a decade later, after 3 pregnancies and c-sections, and horrendous concussions and post concussion syndrome, plus being injured permanently by an off label antipsychotic after the first concussion, i have been living with a movement disorder called tardive dyskinesia that is like Tourette's and Parkinson's disease combined.

It's been hell on earth at times and I've often wondered why I was born sometimes 😪

My autistic child being out of school for two years with no hope of a place at a specialist school.

Yet you still posted 😡

Everyone's health I guess.
My physical and mental health are bad, I've got 3 kids, 2 are autistic and I've just about been keeping my head above water for so long... I need help, desperately.
The only one who will help is my ex husband but I know he brings other issues with him. It can never be as cut and dry as him taking responsibility. He will start to want to borrow money, or somewhere to live, and that will cost me peace in a different way.

My DC with SEN may not get into college in autumn if they get low GCSE grades but be forced to do a vocational course instead. Feel sick at the thought of them being failed yet again. Not sleeping or able to concentrate at all.

Just to let you know you aren't alone, I was in the same boat. Follow debt camel on instagram, get a plan together. It feels shit now, but it's not forever. xx

Don't be 'that' person. Really no need for it, is there?!

Being in hospital sat in a bay next to a lady in nappies and trying to chat and be kind when it smells like a sewer.

So sorry to hear about everyone's issues. Mine pale in comparison, but I currently owe £10,000 on a credit card after messing up with an interest free offer, and have no idea how I'll pay it back before it starts adding interest onto it in 2 months time. Balance transfer will only allow me half of it.
