Hi all
My first post here - guess I'm much the same as you all - just needing a little support and to know that others understand what I'm going through. Doing it a bit tough at the moment. Trying to work full time and hold down a pile of other responsibilities and obligations. Coming apart at the seams somewhat.
Anyway, thank you for reading. I hope I can make some valuable contributions here also.

Hey Squarepeg,
Welcome to the forums. My name is Nick and it is lovely to have you here and you have come to the right place!
Firstly, sorry to hear your doing it a bit tough at the moment. Life is full of ups and downs but it is important to stay positive and strong through the tough times because there are always better times ahead!
Thank you for sharing your situation with us. For many people its extremely hard to post on forums and share their emotions and for you to do that is a huge step. It is also extremely brave, courageous and shows you want to improve your situation which is amazing and you should be proud of yourself!
You will find these forums are a great non-judgmental space for you to share your emotions and thoughts with people who have been through what your experiencing. Feel free to post as much as you feel comfortable doing so and reading other people's posts and learning from their experiences to possibly help your situation might benefit you greatly!
What your experiencing at the moment is totally normal and a predicament many people who are and aren't on these forums experience on a daily basis. Life is a struggle and nothing worth doing is ever easy right? I think finding a balance in life is important and something you can possibly look into. If you wish to provide us with more information on the details of your situation we will definitely be able to provide some more assistance and information that would be of use to you!
Thank you for contributing to the forums and I look forward to seeing you around.
All the best Square.
Nick.

Hi Squarepeg, thanks so much for coming to the forums and we know what you are struggling with and how restrained you are to not even be able to express yourself for fear that nobody will know what you're talking about.
We certainly understand this awful feeling because we've been through it ourselves, and do feel so sorry for you, so please be comfortable in being able to talk with us, you can definitely trust us.
There is no criticism especially as we've suffered so badly from it, we empathise with you, and there must be a lot you're struggling with from what you have told us.
Look forward to hearing back from you.
Geoff.
