@Shaz51 sorry to hear your osteoarthritis is playing up today. The changes in weather don't help. Hopefully it is better by the end of the day.

 

Thank you for posting the daily check in.

 

1) I am feeling about a 6 today.

2) My anxiety is medium high due to feelings of uncertainty about the future, split alliances within the extended family (my mum and sister seemingly on one side against my husband and my Dad on our side...I think). I fear that due to my husband's mental health struggles my parents may eventually side with my sister and her family who have estranged us. I think my Mum has already but my Dad not yet. I feel like I am stuck in the middle and like the only person that cares about me is me. Hard work supporting someone through complex-PTSD whilst still trying to support myself. 

I think what I have been doing well to cope is remind myself that in the end we can only truly rely on ourselves.  I have tried to keep my anxiety levels in check.

3) I am decluttering the house which I hope will give me some sense of peace.

 

Hope everyone is doing something to heal and self care today. Sending hugs to this community.
