Thanks all.
my depression hasn’t been good since my dad died 3 years ago and I developed a bit of a drink problem, which is now under control Also I had mild arthritis so signed up for a drugs trial for a new pain relief. The drug has destroyed the cartilage in both knees and I have had to have them both replaced.
Whilst this has been going on, my teenage daughter who is on the spectrum started refusing to go to school and we have come close to being prosecuted.
just to cap it all off my husband has announced that he wants to end our marriage.
other than that it’s going well ? -
Oh gosh @mrsmerlot that sounds awful! I'm sorry you're going through all that, are you receiving any emotional support?Disability Gamechanger - 2019
