I know I haven't been the most helpful person lately, I am trying and I will support each of you the best I can whenever I see a post.
It is just at this moment my mind is really occupied by the fact that my fiancé is in hospital which you all know anyway.
I have had someone pass away yesterday so that has been difficult.
I have no job anymore as I was fired from both of them so I have been on the hunt for work.
It's getting to the point where I can only manage to cope with so much before it starts taking a massive affect on me.
I am fighting back so I am doing the best I can given all these situations.

@Animalloverb Mate, what you're going through is legitimate hell right now. And, not to overstep the mark, but by the sounds of it, it must feel like everything is collapsing and falling apart for you right now, like some sort of cruel joke. The only thing that isn't falling apart right now mate is you, which is nothing short of incredible. You've offered so many people support, even in your darkest of times, and yet even now, you're apologising for not being helpful enough and offering more help. I want to clarify this, you have been insanely helpful, and i guarantee that every single person on here agrees that you have. You need to give yourself some credit right now for that, for still standing, and not take on any more burden than you have to. You're doing amazingly for others already, you need to take time for yourself. There's only so much mentally a person can handle, so let's try to ease some of that pressure on you where we can. On here, i'm around, and so are others to offer people support, so only do what you feel you're able to, and focus on yourself and on your situation friend. You're doing an amazing job fighting on and doing your best which is astonishing. Sending you a virtual hug.
Thank you mate, I really appreciate it. It honestly really does feel like that right now. I mean what else is going to go wrong. Trying to be there for my fiancé as best as I can, and also suffering from someone who passed away yesterday, like I didn't speak to them for a while as I was too focused on my fiancé and now they are gone.
I Don't give up, that's the way I have raised myself to be, in the hardest time I tell myself I can't give up because people need me. Without me those kids that come to my free of charge animal therapy will have no help at all.
People may be like oh your parents raised you well, no, no they didn't, my parents weren't there for me. My own father did horrific things me as a young child. I raised myself. I had to stay strong so I could be there for my younger siblings. I was 10 years old getting hurt by my father and kept a smile on my face and stayed strong to show up for my siblings. And when I turned 13 he was taken to prison, I still kept a smile on my face and showed up for my siblings while going through court.
And now, still I carry on with everything just for other people. So much in my life has gone awfully and I still push myself and move on. The situation with my fiancé is hard enough, and trying to manage to be there for her while holding myself together after loosing someone yesterday and then trying to find jobs. Its hard. But as I say, I am doing what I can.
If you ever want to talk about anything, I'm here for you. You don't have to worry about me. I can hold myself together.
