Hey I don't post much around the boards about me and how i am recently.

The past hour has just been really tough. I have tried to keep going and and stay positive. If you've been is SC these past 2 night you could tell i didn't want to talk and that's because I didn't have anything to say and I was also told to keep busy.
20 minutes later my mum who I carer for I find in a depressive state and really upset with herself. (I won't say much more). I am worried about her, she hasn't got the correct staff she need to support her I have no say over what happens as I am only 17. Please all I want is a hug and nothing else. I dont want to talk or say anything else i just want a hug.

    Sending you hugs Abi, we're all here for you <3 
    Maybe somethings don't get better, but we do. We get stronger. We learn to live with our situations as messy and ugly as they are. We fix what we can and we adapt to what we can't. Maybe some of us will never fully be okay, but at least we're here. We're still trying. We're doing the best we can. That's worth celebrating too ❤
