Default Do you struggle in life?

Ah I can't post apologies...

But if I could it would be that I'm sorry but I can't add a yes or no poll that is private when you post ...


After works drinks, I do apologise for that x

Every single day, everything I do is a struggle. Even when I'm just doing my hair or making a meal there's an internal feeling telling me "I can't do it, it's too much work, just give up and go back to bed."

...but you did it, you took control of it ...that’s a huge thing, Jess...and the thing to hold onto and build on ...and don’t allow your thoughts to focus more on your anxiety levels of how you were feeling...try to refocus them on the control you took and that empowerment..?.....that was pretty amazing, eh...

Occasionally.
7 weeks on antibiotics and legs that won’t let me sleep gets a bit bothersome.
However there is always something to look forward to.

Keep strong Jess, little steps at a time will get you there.

Currently, very much so. But there are people much worse off than me so I shouldn’t grumble. I’m lucky I have a family that help me but yeah, it’s hard atm thanks to panic disorder/attacks/general severe anxiety.

Anyone who says no as in NEVER is surely not being entirely honest?

of course everyone struggles at some point, not every day though for most

literally what Wizard said, life is hard, but it can also be great, otherwise what is the point

You should grumble! There's always gonna be someone objectively "worse off" no matter what circumstance you're in, but that doesn't mean you can't be upset
I like to think a big part of healing is being honest about how much what you're going through hurts, and for that you should speak about it however you feel fit
I hope you feel better soon

That's the distinction. The thread is confused.

The title is "Do you struggle in life?" and the poll is "Do you struggle at times?"

Two different things.

I would imagine the second question is a yes for everyone, the first a yes for only some people.

Every single day at the moment. I haven't been in a good place since Anthony dumped me and I just feel useless and hopeless and like I bore everybody so I just keep it bottled in now. I am just existing. I can count on one hand the amount of good days I've had in 7 months.

Life is hard....its also a blessing. I spent 12 years and thousands of pounds trying to have a child, everything failed. I was told to give up. Almost 9 years ago to the day (27th) of this month, my life was complete when my miracle son was born. Fast forward 4 years almost to this day (31st) I was given the worst news, my mum had cancer....three days later we were told it was terminal, 4 weeks later she was dead. At times I still find it hard to breathe if I think about the speed we lost her. Enjoy what you have...even if you think it's ****...make memories and try to love life. Its hard, it's **** at times...but it's so limited. Talk to people if you feel down....chances are they will get it and help.
