Tired of it, draining, awful, becoming bitter, i breast fed my children as a single mum, done everything, why cant i get it back, then i watched the most depressing thing on you tube where a single mum drinks vodka all night and then takes an overdos...

I don't know what a link is, but it sounds as though fairyfly needs some help.

Thanks for the link - will watch in a min. My computer seems to take ages for youtube to play anything.

Visited the place that lady was at a few times when xh first left. I could never do it - the kids would have hated me. Are you ok fairyfly?

fairyfly · 07/03/2008 02:18

I would never do that, i'm not ok, i feel as alone as she does but i will not leave my life, or my boys xxx

TheWiltedRose · 07/03/2008 02:20

fairyfly · 07/03/2008 02:21

I have always been alone with my boys.

I remember being so so so tired and breast feeding my babies alone.

But i always thought i could beat it

I wish I could say something but everything is too cliched.

UnderRated · 07/03/2008 02:28

Is that one even worse?

littlewoman · 07/03/2008 02:30

I was reading your message this morning about a list of things to do, which sounded more positive. It sounds like you are swinging wildly from determination to despondency. If you and your xbf split very recently, this is not unusual but it is a horrible place to be.

TheWiltedRose · 07/03/2008 02:31

Oh that made me cry so much dont watch things like this PLEASE it doesnt help,,,

littlewoman · 07/03/2008 02:32

Please don't watch any others, fairyfly. The world is full of horror and sadness. You only need to be coping with your own stuff just now.

TheWiltedRose · 07/03/2008 02:35

fairyfly · 07/03/2008 02:38
