I am what you would call middle aged. I am loud/quiet/outspoken/reserved.
I broke my ankle last year in august. In 3 places. I had 12 weeks to go to finish a nursing degree. I have been divorced twice. I have 3 children and 1 grandson.
I am in pain all of the time.
Another site banned me for speaking up, just before xmas, it was hard.
I am learning to walk again and want to finish degree this year. I can't see that happening.
I am living in a place where I am a survivor of violence. I cant move yet dont have the funds, my job as a nurse was supposed to help.
I try not to be angry and blame me or anyone else.
I am lost.
I love music, but have to keep it quiet.
I have to be quiet.
i am on meds for depresion and anxiety but trying to come off.
No one understands what the break in foot meant.
My daughters are grown and my son is 12.
I want to give up but cant.
Today I had another x ray on foot, not looking good.
What happened to fair???

Snappy

Welcome to depnet and I hope you find it beneficial. I can relate to the second sentence of your diary - loud/quiet/outspoken/reserved. No one on here would guess it but I am all those things as well. I think I have become a little more extroverted since I joined depnet and I have a firey temper because I am a redhead.

Hope you get to finish your degree - I am in the same boat 11 subjects to go with my second degree.

You will find as long as you don't breach the depnet etiquette, you will be fine here and I hope you make some great friends here who can relate to you and support you.

Go Snappy!!!

thanks for the support,it means a lot.
I didnt expect to be in this situation at this time in my life. I wish I knew as much now as I thought I did when I was 20.
I am grateful for the health of my children but not happy with eldest's attitude (23) she thinks she can just snap her fingers and I will be there.She is mother of my grandson.
Im coming off prozac so going to put this low mood at the moment down to that.
I want to hide from the world, dont want anymore abuse and I want and deserve some respect.
just feeling crappy I expect.
