Hugs @BlueBay .... 💙🐚

Yes, up early @Snowie.  Managing around 6 hours sleep a night, and have gone to bed early the last couple of nights.

Still wobbly here @Catcakes ..... think mr is disdirecting his emotions big-time at the moment.  Will understand more later today,  His estranged father is unwell.

Hope you get some respite today @Faith-and-Hope 🌿🌸❤️

Thanks @Catcakes @Snowie .....

Mr will be out all day .... so there is respite in that .... and we have a commitment out tonight with all the kids.  Will be a Mum taxi just before that .... but expecting a quiet day today over all.

Heading to the coffee shop in my jammies .... lol .... nobody knows that what they are .... will get dressed later.  Will potter around with some sorting I wanted to get done today.

Sounds like my day @Faith-and-Hope, accept for the coffee shop (why? thought the CS was a walk motivator lol) Enjoy your 'respite' from high maintenance WH (don't envy you there).

Hi @Zoe7 @Snowie @Faith-and-Hope @Former-Member

@Catcakes wondering what you meant about the DBT and if you want to talk about it on the hot choc thread.  

I had not heard of it til I joined this forum, then some one posted about it as  a solution to all.  I have researched it a bit since and downloaded the files from @Phoenix_Rising DBT thread.  A lot of my issues really occurred before DBT or mindfulness was a thing. I was meditating back then anyway but getting in trouble for not praying acording to my mother;s style ...  I am an interested bystander ...reflect on what might have helpded my sibs and I. Genuinely interested in all things that improve  mental health serivces.
