Thanks for your support mute.scream (can I call you Laura) I'm sorry you're feeling so tired and stressed lately. I know how draining it can be to look after people when they are sick. I think you're a great friend for taking care of her like that, but try to remember to look after yourself too, and give yourself some space--you need and deserve it.
I've been having a difficult few weeks what with one thing and another--I've been off sick for three weeks due to mental health stuff, and I'm supposed to going back for reduced hours starting on Tuesday. I generally feel very tired and down. The dissociation makes things really difficult--it's so hard to focus or make sense of everything, and everything feels really far away. It's really scary to me to keep ending up in places and not knowing how I got there or buying things and forgetting I bought them--I don't like it. I don't know how to help myself with it either--I've at least got some techniques for managing depression etc, but nothing for dissociation and I don't really know how to cope with it. :(
