Dear DLHM so beautifully expressed 🥰 this forum is a special place where people can offer support and let others know there is a place beyond the depression or at least a way through it. It is wonderful that you are able to share your inspiration It is great that you have someone you can share...

Dear Ezzy I guess we’re awake at the Same time. Firstly when you are typing there’s a little microphone on the left of the space bar. Hit the button and welcome to the typed spoken word. NO fingers required. I love black dogs but not the type you’re talking about.. the depression your...

The thing I love about writing these articles is the way people respond to each other. This is an amazing place where people reach out with love and caring and offerings of support . Thank you to those who reach out . 💖🙏🏻

I’m so sorry it is a struggle for Aged Care it is very under resourced and I guess it is only when we petition and have our voices heard that we can make change. Please don’t give up and maybe try your local council to see if they have any help available. As Wendell says above, “don’t give up”. 🙏🏻💖

Dear Jest I checked with the local area and their waitlist for assessment is 3months it’s supposed to be 8 weeks but there’s been a significant increase in applications or so I was told

Maggie don’t give up You need help and there is help available. You need to advocate for yourself and if you are confident find a friend or go back to your GP Good luck.

Dear Mousey it sounds as if you are in need of some ongoing counselling . You certainly have experienced some significant grief in a short period and it’s compounded before you have time to come to terms with each experience. I strongly recommend that you visit your GP and get a referral for a...

Dear Jest my articles are suggestions for dealing with aggression.you use what is best for you 😁 I’d only say that isolating yourself can be lonely. However as MariaG says it can be beneficial to sit with your own thoughts …. For a while 💖

I’m so sorry you are suffering that much pain but I’m excited to see you moving on and turning a page to view your pain in a different light very difficult to do but worth it in the long term. I’m so happy that the article has been helpful and thank you for sharing you positive attitude and...

Sorry it’s so painful . I love your attitude. Simply being positive (and that can be hard) makes a huge difference 💕

Hi Maria I’m sorry about your experience.my article is aimed at connecting with people you want to connect with , but not everyone fits that bill. It is very difficult when neighbours aren’t helpful and I’m actually writing an article about what to do when you are confronted with angry and/or...

Jest I agree some neighbours can be difficult. It’s more about the process of connection than making lifelong friends. A simple smile and hello to waitresses or the coffee maker makes a difference. I’m sorry your neighbours are not friendly but communication is the key and believe it or not you...

Congratulations to both of you. Seeing your valued and insightful comments has often made me wish to know who you are. It sounds like a loving match best wishes for the future Joy 💕

Thank you Julieapol I’m so sorry for the loss of your beautiful daughter at such a young age. It is so true that until we start to look into things there are often many things we don’t know about. Getting our affairs in order makes life a lot easier for those left be hind. Again I’m sorry for...

Actually the current statistics are 30% of first marriages end in divorce which is a decrease from previous decades. I’m not sure whether you truly believe how horrible marriage is , you’ve been badly hurt in an earlier relationship or you are going for shock value and stirring the pot . I hope...

Marni yes your point is very true but sometimes it’s easier to say nothing. You also have the right to make a statement to police or child welfare if you believe someone is being abused. It is why now police can take out an AVO on behalf of a victim of abuse because it can be very difficult for...

Stand by your friend/relative but don’t force the issue. Offer constructive ideas for leaving but remember they are usually in love or enmeshed with the abuser and it can be very difficult to leave. Remember their self worth has been seriously impaired or they wouldn’t allow the abuse. Praising...

Dear birutespehr it is a very difficult situation and this will probably not what you want to hear but I’m sure you realise you can’t change your son. He has an illness and an addiction which until he wants to change it will not change no matter what you do. It is easy to be in denial and go...
