I’ve tried.

So long.
But it’s not enough.
Whatever I do.
How do you keep going?

Erm..going to need a little more info

Phantomoutforthechill · 24/10/2017 22:53

Give me a clue, what's the subject?

Anymajordude · 24/10/2017 22:53

Are you alright? Do you need to talk?

TooLateNotAnymore · 24/10/2017 22:55

My “D”H is asleep.
Oblivious.
As always.
DC2 tries so hard.
So kind
But it’s not fair for her to support the rest of us.
I have always been the one who copes. And organises. And makes decisions. And earns.
And I am tired.
More than tired.

No.
I’m not alright.
Not this time.
It’s too much.

How old is Dc2 Op?

Anymajordude · 24/10/2017 22:58

Yes life can seem relentless sometimes. Do you have any other support? What are you battling with?

TooLateNotAnymore · 24/10/2017 22:59

No other support.

Can you give us some more details? You sound very desperate. Please don’t put yourself in danger.

wobblywonderwoman · 24/10/2017 22:59

Tell us more op. Can you make yourself a hot drink

TooLateNotAnymore · 24/10/2017 23:02

Stay with us OP. What's up?

frenchfancy81 · 24/10/2017 23:03

Please do talk to us x

Phantomoutforthechill · 24/10/2017 23:04

A hot drink sounds like a very good idea. My Dc2 thinks instant hot chocolate is the end to all worries.

Nandoshoes · 24/10/2017 23:04

Hi op. Tell us more we want to hear what's going on x

TooLateNotAnymore · 24/10/2017 23:05

But I’ve tried.

OP posts:
wtf2015 · 24/10/2017 23:05

Or a cup of tea. Nothing is ever as bad as it seems.

C0untDucku1a · 24/10/2017 23:05

How old is dc2?

Anymajordude · 24/10/2017 23:05

Yes do hold on. Think of how much you love them which is why you have to hold on. They need you. What help do you need?

TooLateNotAnymore · 24/10/2017 23:06

I’ve been telling myself that for 2 years.
It’s a long time.

Life can just be a viscous circle of shite.

No matter what we do, who we do it for there are those in life me included that wonder when some fucker is gonna do something for us.

Probably never so we keep on because we are strong and coffee is lovely

I was listening to a radio programme the other day talking about stress, which they defined as being when your emotional resources are outstripped by the demands placed upon them - then even a minor thing is too much. Is that what you mean by saying you can’t cope, or is it a different type of feeling?

TooLateNotAnymore · 24/10/2017 23:06

I’ve tried to help.

OP posts:
wtf2015 · 24/10/2017 23:07

Who have you tried to help?

TooLateNotAnymore · 24/10/2017 23:08

Uptheduffy - yes. Sort of. But it’s not minor.
