ton of bricks

wow....well, i guess everything has finally hit me. i'm not having a good day. i'm overwhelmed, scared, sad, crying, emotionally drained. it's just too much to handle right now for me. the guardianship, my mom's health, lawyers, possible court time, her going to the hospital.
so many what if's in my head it's driving me crazy.

All you can deal with is what you know right now. She wants help, next week is a chance to get it for her. That's a good thing Jen. One day at a time.

((jen)) - you need to take a small break and get a short dose of quiet time if you can to settle your spinning thoughts. swirling head syndrome is not a nice place to be. the what ifs are just that - not real.

Always remember, you're doing the best you can Jen. On my worst days, I do try to find a 30 minute chunk of time when I just sit with a cup of tea and calm myself down. You are going to have these days, especially at the beginning because it is all so new and you've got so much new information and choices flying at you.

Be kind to yourself. ((()))
