How did your shift go? Has your knee sorted itself out yet?
You're not bothering anyone - please keep posting!
Knee's still being annoying. The more I work the more it hurts, but I guess I deserve the pain.
Last night in general was really bad.. Just felt so low, to the point where I did not want to live any more. I hate feeling like this I hate it. I don't know what to do anymore. I'm sorry.
I remember when I was looking after my aunt and her family after my uncle died, and visiting my grandparents a lot to help them - every so often I'd pull the car over somewhere quiet when I was driving between the three houses and cry into the cuddly toy that had ended up in my car.
It sounds like you've got a lot on your plate - do you get any help at home, or is it just you, your sisters and your dad?
Driving theory test- I've got all the cd's and stuff, but still keep failing.
Does your dad have any kind of district nurse, or health visitor, or GP? And if so, do they know that your mum has left and you're now his sole carer? There may well be some kind of help that can be set up for you & him.
You may also find that you fall into the category of something called a young carer. There's a bit more information about it at the following links, may be worth taking a look at.

You're doing a fab job by the sounds of it - and remember that everyone needs a little bit of time for yourself. Even if it's just 15 minutes on the bus on the way to work listening to your music and chilling, or 15 mins chilling out with a book before you fall asleep at night.
Dad has nothing, wont take any help from the nhs or anything... GP's are still closed cause it's Easter Tuesday, that's life I guess.
Feel like complete and utter shite, I don't see any point in me being here. I'm tired and in pain, I don't know anymore.
Work was just a disaster, Was sat calling the numbers and broke down in tears, ran out and hid under the stairs... Refused to come out.. Second time it's happened now. I'm sorry
It may well all be fine at the moment, but if you have a fall and suddenly end up on crutches it sounds like this whole plan might come unstuck - so it's worth having someone in the system aware of what's going on.
Feel like utter shit this morning.. Sat stressing over work I go back to collage on Monday have a pile of work due in and I've hardly done it cause I've not have time. I don't think I'll get it done. But I don't do it I'll fail. I don't really have a choice. Should just stop moaning about everything and get on wit it. Moaning get's me no where. Pointless stupid person Suzy. Get a grip.
