Charl I may be overstepping things here and forgive me if I am. But you support so many others here accept some help and support back. It is ok to have bad days it doesnt make you less of a person. In fact I think you are showing courage by standing up and saying you are finding things hard it is a brave thing to do. I like loads about you charl but what I like the most is your honesty. You say it as it is not what you think people want to hear. For that I have loads of respect for you. It was good to see an update. Things will get better stay safe. Take good care hun x

hi Charlotte...

I agree with adams last post...it is your honesty that shines through and your doing the right thing posting whats inside and not just saying what you think people want to hear.

Your recovery is your own journey and some days the road will be rocky.... ive also used drink to self medicate and to help me sleep and you right Charl..perhaps a chat to your GP may be a good idea as just whilst you are going through these changes you may need a bit of support.

Im happy you are going to your job too..sometimes work can be a healthy distraction and some days dont want to leave the house but when i get back at night after interacting wiih people i usually feel a bit better.

Keep posting if you can Charlotte...no matter what comes out...even if its just a few lines hun..it will keep you connected and hopefully you will know your not alone.

hugs and bigger hugs

you know the word : )

R and D xxx

ps... thank you for your post to me..I would have loved to be a Mum but i'm happy being a crazy Auntie Rach xx lol

Hiya charl. Sorry your not feeling to good at the mo. Speak to ya doc, speak to ya BF. Your right dont hide them feelings accept them and share them. Dont bottle them up that certainly wont help. Keep strong and yes gambling certainly wont help, you'll escape for a short while then you'll have another problem on your hands and feel even worse. People have there bad days, its perfectly normal. Keep sharing and you'll turn it around. Theres a lot on here that care about you and theres a lot in your life to be proud about. Keep posting and look after yourself.

Hi Charlotte,

Am really sorry to hear you have been down recently, hope you will start to feel better soon. Life is an absolute war sometimes and sometimes I wonder how much we have to be tested. Just remember, no matter how bad things get, you are the most important person in the world and nothing or nobody will ever take that from you. People can be irritating and can cause us grief, but be thankful you are not like them. You are a lovely, kind person who deserves the best and that is what you will get.

Stay strong.

Best wishes

Kathy x

hi charlotte,

havent been on too much recently been quite busy just lately but im glad i did manage to get on tonight, what i like in you is that you tell it how it is and not just a standard comment if the times are good for you then im happy if times are hard then im sad as well because i know what a thoughtful, caring, understanding person you are. hopefully the dark times will soon dissappear, i really hope they do, and please please hang on in there with gritted teeth. do what is best for you!! because your number 1.

Hi Charlotte thanks very much for your comments and support. I'll be honest In my last post on your diary I wanted to ask for your opinion but because you seem to be having a rough time of it lately i didn't want to bother you with it. So with that in mind I really appreciate you taking the time to offer your support. And I really hope you can get your head straight and get back to the positive, lovely, inspirational Charlotte that we've all grown to love. It's a tough road were walking and ofcourse you have your new job which is never easy, new people and aims etc plus a littlin so I'm sure that the tough times are just part of life - unfortunately but ultimately they'll get better and you just need to focus on all the good in your life of which there is many. Thanks again charl and look after yourself.

hi charlotte

thanks for your kind words. iam only positive and determined now because when i joined i had hit rock bottom, and almost done myself in, in fact the day before i met you and ricky in chat so you guys pulled me up the first rung and then the gamcare family have gradually got me up a few more. on reflection of the journey first i would say my determination is down to relapsing and getting stronger from it and also i think you have to hit rock bottom before you can start moving up. sorry for rambling a bit i suppose what im saying is is THANKYOU and you will pass this horrible stage i hit one of them early on.

take care

carl
