I honestly don't know what to do to get through each moment anymore. There has been so much that has happened and continues to impact on my life. 

My brain is screaming with a million thoughts in opposing directions so I'm sorry if this is just mad rambling,😞☠️

It all began to unravel when my eldest son died in 1999🪽🥀 he was 4

My youngest son was then taken by cancer in 2023🪽🥀 he was 17

My 2 middle boys ( 28 and 32 ) and 2 grandchildren ( 6&7 )all got ripped away on the 20th July 2025 🪽🥀😭

In amongst all of this, I was trapped in a very bag personal situation where was extensive dv abuse which has left me with lifelong injuries, scars and damage.  When I finally got out in April 2024 ,it was my boys who saved me - & who unfortunately saw the firsthand proof of just how sick, twisted and sadistic my ex was . Without any hesitation, after a 15hr drive from their home in Qld to NSW they made sure that I was somewhere safe and guarded (they moved me to where they were literally next door) 

Now there is  no one and nothing left 😞☠️💔 and all I can keep thinking is I wish I hadn't been saved. I wish that my ex had followed through on what he threatened so many times😭

I’ll keep going if you keep going.

That sounds so traumatic. I am so sorry to read this. I hope you can get some good psychological support. I think talking that through with a professional  could be helpful. Seeing your GP could also be important. When things are hard, I think it is good to try to stay in the present moment - not focus on the past or future helps. Any self care activities like walks or other things you enjoy could be helpful. Would looking after an animal be helpful? My cat is often of comfort to me.
