Re: im nothing (tw - death)
Hi @toffuna101 , thank you for sharing this post. Some really powerful and strongly felt words here. What did these parts of the TV show bring up for you?
We're here and we're listening.
i didn't really watch the TV show, i just got it from a scene

@Redemption i can't sleep until my brother goes to sleep just in case he has violent headbanging meltdown and I have to respond quickly. Not that I can respond as quickly as usual with a broken fricking leg 😂
@DonnerKebab must be extremely hard , I hope he got some sleep and you did too.
@Redemption I'm used to it thanks, have been since i was 11, it's just that doing it with a broken leg is new 😂 I fell over trying to sort out one of his meltdowns last night. But we both got sleep thankfully, him at 3, me at half 3
@DonnerKebab still can be hard though, its good you do all of this though. You ok now?
@Redemption yeah, all fine now, my leg killed when i fell over though, but the pain meds have helped ease that now. And it's the sort of thing you get used to after a while you know. 12 years of it makes it a whole lot easier than you think.
Anyway, how are you doing Bro?
@DonnerKebab yh I hope your leg gets better fully again soon. Im overwhelmed but getting there, hopefully support chat is on later too.
@Redemption Cheers Bro, and yeah, with any luck it'll stay on tonight. Do you want to talk a bit about what's got you feeling overwhelmed bro?

updateee - my last day is now sunday, i wasn’t at all expecting that to be the outcome since we are meant to give 1 months notice and sunday is 4 days away lol so as much as i am relieved, im also kinda sad?
@shannon_164 well done. I know it's a really anxiety ridden thing sending in a resignation text, and i'm so happy it went well for you. It's normal to feel a sense of sadness when leaving any workplace, because it's a change from normality and there's small things you'll miss from it, but you have to remind yourself, your moving to a better workplace, to bigger and better things elsewhere.
thank you @DonnerKebab
@shannon_164 it's easy to lose track sometimes, cause the future is in the future and the here and now is obviously the first thing that will come to mind, but you have to keep reminding yourself your doing the right thing. You're doing a great job pushing through the social anxiety to have resigned and doing what's best for your future, and you really should be proud of yourself for it. Good luck with it all. 2 shifts to freedom sounds both fun and scary.
