Hi there I think its a common thing I mean its our brains that have been effected cant stick a plaster on it and say there-there.. I am SO pleased you've made an appointment with your GP maybe you could see about councelling such as Headway hear great things about Headway or councelling in general. Think Sami has said it all really so good luck with the GP just say what you've said here tell it as it is... and rant away we all know and understand. take care.

Hi there thanks for sharing your story so-far, I went to college after my SAH and found that a hard struggle and knew then that working life wasn't for me to find the balance for yourself and family I do so hope you find what your seeking defo onward and forward..

Hello there Warm welcome to the site, glad that you found us. So sorry to hear what your going through it does take time and every day will be different but please don't give up hope... I cant answer your questions on how to cope I'm a survivor but there are carers/family members on here that will be able to help I'm sure. try and have time for 'yourself' know its hard but without the strength of our carers we'd be lost... take care.

Hi there so glad your being referred for councelling it really can help... some great replies for you (as always) don't be hard on yourself... we all know and understand... take care, enjoy the hugs they are so presious...

Sending you hugs Sarah remember the question lists and keep calm... SO glad that someone is going with you...

Thank-you all for the lovely comments yesterday I really appreciate them. Sami I'm humbled by your reply. Subs, Ronnie was backshift but he's off today so went to the club last night for a few hours... Karen, one reason why I posted that yesterday to give others mostly newbies Hope although I knew it was coming it still seems surreal.. Just reply to a few was at the club last night Ladies night in the Hall we were in the lounge which I thought might be quieter wrong! but hey-ho it was Ronnie's celebration too. Got a lovely buquet of flowers & chocolates from him, and in the Raffle he won a bottle of Rose from Valencia where we visit on holiday last year in Spain..
