Tom, Joyce Meyer often refers to the fact that her father sexually abused her. Sometimes I have thought ' why doesn't she stop referring to it - she has forgiven- so why does she bring it up?' But then when I have pondered the nature of abuse - part of what happens is that the abuser in...

Is there anyone you can choose to call up or go around to , or them come to you Tom? I don't know if they have any Coda groups where you are, but these groups all have people in them that really are trying to connect to themselves having had a lot of emotional abuse, and learning how to have...

Maybe this post of Woven's is not a word 'in season' for you. And that is ok. Not all words are for everyone - right now. I know that part of your healing work has been around boundaries Tom, and some of the dysfunction and abuse you have talked of , as a youngster - certainly emotional...

Dawn Penn No, No No (GREAT QUALITY) - YouTube Love the sound of this track - lyrics are a bit heartbreaky - just love the sound of it though

I'm glad it was a help and that you felt helped Rowan Tree. Thank you so much for reaching out. I must say I was blessed too to see how many people really care and wanted to be there with you in your pain. I think you are so courageous and really I must say this - I admire that you have been...

:hug: I do know what that feels like . It is so very hard to need help and support - and to post here - it can be such a help - but also - I too have shared things out of a broken heart running over .....and then later on felt like...uggh wish I hadn't. You can make a request for the thread to...

don't know if you have ever used this one disabled living foundation helpline - that is in front of yellow pages for your area. the 'careline' i mentioned - i just checked is not in yellow pages - i think it is attached to your local council - tends to be set up that way. just google...

It's funny - I have not been on the forum for quite some time - except for a peek now and then. But this morning I felt prompted , urged to log on. I'm so grateful to God - He is with you and cares for you so much. I do know other people in your type of situation and so could ask for...

You mum has your other siblings for 'close care' for her . There are ways of caring or loving others- that are safe. Sending a card now and then....that sort of thing.

Also perhaps email some churches and ask do they have house groups - these may be closes to where you live. Even if it is in a larger town - they may have a minibus and come and collect you and take you home - if they know your situation. Worth a try.

I hear you. You need support. It should be in the front of your Yellow Pages the number for Careline. Careline will connect you with social workers etc. If your husband won't take the test - you still can make an appointment with HIS doctor to express your concerns and be honest about what...

Hi Rowantree Do you get any government assistance with care for your husband? You are entitled to at at least 14 hours a week of care assistance, whereby a person that you meet and are happy with can come and sit and care for your husband while you get some much needed time to yourself - a...

It's very interesting about gluten . I have wondered about this , just in my own experience of bread. When I don't eat it I feel better - although I do like it. Most people crave do-nuts and high fat foods etc when depressed , because the body and mind are in 'crisis' state and so there's a...

Hi Dreamer You know what...this just saved me. This quote was exactly what I needed. In some ways today I was doing ok, and then in others I did simply awful. But...I will try again tomorrow. Thank you. :hug:

Hi fluff puff gerbil It's so great that you care. I think when people are depressed it really does help to know that people care. I think it is a good suggestion, while she is in hospital, just to send her little cards. I think what was said earlier by Jeshu is an excellent idea. Sometimes...

Cm James - your face really radiates beauty and love. Do you know that? I can imagine that lots of people feel comforted just by simply looking at you. What lovely pics - your cousin Ross and aunt Helen look so glad to be with you.

What's up? I wish you would share it - i'd love to hear what's happening to you. Take your time. Maybe share it a piece at a time, if there's too much for you to think of at once. Do share it - if you want to.:hug:
