Hi Minky.
Nice to meet you.
Sounds like you and your mum are having a bad time.
Best thing you can do for your mum is let her know you are there for her.
Also it is important not to forget about yourself.
If you need to talk you can message me at any point.
Hang in there
Amanda

Hi Minky and :welcome:

You'll get loads of advice and support here while making new friends along the way. You're already doing great coming here and looking to support your mum. It must be hard and it's important not to forget about yourself. I find sufferers are able to cope better if they take small steps so perhaps you could try compromising with your mum? For example, you could suggest having a friend round for just a short time to begin with.

Take care,

Mike :)

Hi Minky

Your mum sounds a bit like me... I think I was that person last year, I am improving. I was very angry with everything.

Has your mum been to see a Doctor to seek advice, or has she seen this website?

You will get lots of support/advice and make some great friends along the way. When you dont suffer yourself it can be very hard and fustrating trying to understand, so being there for you mom is a lovely thing to do. has she seen her doc about how she is feeling? also ask her to take a look at this site with you, there is lots of info that may help her with some things. keep posting and we will help as much as we can.

take care. :hugs: :hugs: :hugs:

Hi Minky

A big warm :welcome: to the forum. so glad you found us.

This is a safe place to talk and to get help and support. you will soon discover you will not be alone and we are here to help you.

Im sorry your mum is having a hard time and Im sure you are constainly getting in her bad books but she cant help that , she is poorly and needs some help. By no means is it your fault either you have done nothing wrong but people take it out on their loved one s and dont realise what they are doing.

Im so glad you have come here and we will do are very best to help you.

you are a very special person because you are trying to help your mum and care for her.
