    Hope you're ok @Amberpearl 💛

    Did you find something to watch? I watched some of The Office US which helped distract me after my mum and brother left.

    Well done @Catherine21. This is probably the hardest time of year so you should be so proud of your choice. Take today easy. Are family still there? If not, can you find something light to watch, or something to read to keep you occupied? 💛

    My day yesterday was awful ylthis morning is no better.Son still wont get out of bed.I cant enjoy anything on tv because im stressed with this whole situation.I am reading from others that they went through this for years.

    @Jane315STARX I can relate to this massively. From my own past experience, this time of year can be absolutely crippling. I used to describe it to others as only being able to deal with the core basics of self care which was often just being in bed. It's difficult to describe but it's almost like an exhaustion and you just physically cannot do anything else.

    But, after that period I came out of it much brighter and I hope your son does too. I can't imagine how worrying it is for you as a mother but please try to be kind to yourself. 💛

    morning all. i am a bit depressed.. i do not like christmas. i am glad even if it is a bit selfish i do not have to give presents away to anyone as i would really feel very anxious etc. i enjoy my own company but it is very depressing. if i am not busy doing something it is when i start thinking way too much about stuff i should not but i just can not help it. another year passed but i feel rather scared about the following year on what it will happen. the system is becoming very hostile against sick people. anyway….

    You're not alone in feeling alone and struggling at this time @Schildpad, I promise. 💛 I hope you're able to find a distraction. I've been watching The Office (US) to keep me occupied. It's light and silly. Has been really helpful the past 48 hours or so as has being on the community. 🙂

    i have been watching film after film even the very bad ones.. i can not wait to go back to the routine but it will start in January so i will have to just try to keep busy doing other things.. i really need to get netflix or something similar.. freeview is bad…always the same stuff.

    Do you have access to the likes of BBC iPlayer, ITV etc. They're free but there's much more choice than what's on the tele. Netflix is brilliant though, lots of variety.

    i might try on line stuff .. yeah… but i have been thinking about netflix for a while. maybe next year.. i mean it is around the corner so i should be thinking about it.

    i also like films from other countries other languages etc… anyway.

    now trying to keep warm. it is kinda cold but no snow.

    i guess tomorrow i will go out and go for a walk pain permitting as my leg and back is bad in particular with this weather.
