@BryanaCamp I am grateful to have you as a friend on the forum.You are inspirationally positive in relationships. I am hoping to have my own flat one day soon because my brother will be back home. So it will be easier to share looking after mum.

thanks @Meowmy your so kind, I am your friend indeed & I'm grateful you're my buddy too! I have some difficult relationships (my mother is difficult) but other good ones, I've worked hard on them & medication has helped a lot. That would be exciting to get your own flat, I like living alone it's nice & quiet. I hope your brother is helpful in caring for your mum - you're a very good daughter to take care of her, that's not easy.![]()
thanks @Lea02 I went thru 7 years of having no family relationships due to mental illness but now things are better, especially on meds. Well done on building yourself a wonderful, warm family, I really respect that. I'm single so it's just me & the cat but I do really enjoy my nephews.

Thats wonderful @BryanaCamp , thanks for sharing. You're blessed to hav ur 2 aunts. And wonderful that u hav an improved relationship with ur sister.
Im grateful for my mum. She has had significant MH battles throughout her life but is in a rly good place now in that way and is such a wonderful support to me. I am at her place as we speak, we are both knitting and chatting away. Shes a real blessing to me.

Thats wonderful @Lea02. Im so happy for u in regard to your relationship with ur hubby and sons, that is rly special. Im sorry to hear about ur family, but it sounds like u hav come to terms with it now, as best u can neway, and take great solace in the love u hav with ur husband and sons.
I know my husband loves me dearly, i wish he cld show it a little more through a bit more involvement in my MH struggles, and compassion towards me. However, i am very grateful that he attended an appointment i had ystrday with my psychiatrist bcoz i was so scared about this particular appt, and it was a real.blessing having him there with me.
