Hi @Anastasia
It’s so lovely to hear from you - hello and hugs to you too
I’m so sorry to hear about everything that’s happening for you and just from what you’ve described, it sounds as though you’re carrying an incredibly heavy emotional load
The battle between our head and our heart is never easy and finding ourselves being pushed and pulled in so many different directions can be exhausting within itself! As such, I can really appreciate how you’ve reached a place where you feel overwhelmed and emotionally depleted
There have definitely been times in my life when I’ve felt completely overwhelmed by the avalanche of responsibilities hurtling towards me and as such, finding a way forward often felt impossible! As a result, there were numerous times when all I wanted to do was hide underneath my doona until the worse was over and a sense of calm had been restored!
Just from the little bit that you shared, meeting with staff from the NDIS sounds as though it can be an extremely stressful and frustrating experience and as such, I just ever so gently wondered how the review went for your boy?
Oh Anastasia I’m so deeply sorry to hear that your dad is undergoing chemotherapy and my heart goes out to you and your family at such a difficult time
Please know that I’m thinking of you and sending you some very gentle and caring hugs
Take care of yourself,
ShiningStar
