You are most welcome @oceangirl and back at you too 😘. I hope you bounce back as well.  I think it’s my time to wind down for sleep now. Wishing you all the best. 💜🤗

Hi @outlander 

Thank you so much. I am not doing so well atm. I am sure I will bounce back. Take Care

[Zoe7]

It seems like leaving is not really what you need right now if you are struggling so much but hoping you can put some of thise supports in place for you this week and can take care of yourself. If you change your mind the forum will still be here @oceangirl Take care of yourself.

I've not cried until I read your post Zoe. I am not coping too well but please don't worry ok. I will bounce back. Its a bit of a struggle for me right now. The black dog is back and I am overwhelmed atm. You keep doing what you're doing. Milo has never seen me upset before I've kept everything together because he had been so sick. I think its time for me to go to bed. I might be back if I can't sleep. Good night @Zoe7  Thank you for your support & friendship

[Zoe7]

I will be up for a little while yet @oceangirl Hope you get some sleep 

[oceangirl]

I'm still up and really overwhelmed

[Zoe7]

Can you do some controlled breathing to help calm you a little? @oceangirl 

[oceangirl]

I'll try to do that. It is hard, I have a headache and not drank much today or yesterday. I am not sure what to do.  I am just scared but thats ok. I just need to normalize it @Zoe7 

[Zoe7]

Yes and drink some more to help with your headache @oceangirl Hopefully the controlled breathing will help a little too.

@oceangirl Sending support.

Glad you are still volunteering.  I accept if you want time out or to leave.  I miss OverTheEdge too.  Sipping might help, but I understand you cant take in large amounts.  Its extra difficult just after surgery, but in the future you will reap the benefits.

Not right breeds ... but hugs
