Family members are so mixed up. I don’t know what to do. My mother died in 2011. Now my family members are saying that is when I gave up working because of my condition when it was till 2017.We are not close but this is really bringing me down as they will not believe me. I could prove it but do not feel I should. How could they confuse 6 years

    Hi sweetheart.  Try getting outside trustworthy support for this difficult time your going through. You've done really well accessing this forum and reaching out to the scope community. Losing a parent can be really tough to come to terms with and the time it takes differs from person to person.  Your family should recognise this but reach out to charities like this one. CALM charity have a really good online support chat. Look them up and have a good chat with them
     They are amazingly supportive. I used them this week in an hour of need and they really helped me get clarity and direction on how to deal with the situation I was in. Take good care x

    Hello @mk1

    Welcome to the community! I am so sorry to hear it has been a difficult time for you with your family. I see the community has come out in support <3 If we can help in any way please don't hesitate to reach out. 

    I agree with EDW that there are great charities out there like CALM, SHOUT and Mind if you need someone to speak to :)
