Single mum

Chrystal — Sat, 23 Nov 2024 13:23:31 GMT

I’m a single mum of a beautiful 12 year-old autistic girl and a seven month old boy. I’ve just had surgery and I’m just in so much pain and so lonely all the time I wanna ask someone to just hold me but I can’t because I’ve gotta be the strong one. I’ve got a pretend I’m not in pain or lonely so it doesn’t distress my daughter and only time I can acknowledge my feelings of pain and loneliness is when everyone is asleep. I don’t have any close family or friends that I can call, all I want is someone to pat my head and tell me it will all be ok. To let me cry and let me be weak without being criticised for it

i’m kinda hoping by putting my thoughts and feelings down it might help me feel that little bit better

if you have stayed with me for this long thank you for listening and hope you have a wonderful night

I will give you a hug

I hear your distress loud and clear

Its going to be alright

Its just a bad time at the moment and the blue sky will come again

Everything will be ok and cry as much as you need to Its ok

I cry alot and It not because we are weak but because we are human and thats what healthy humans do

Im sure most people on here cry too
