I am sorry things are hard with your parents. It is a difficult situation which thankfully I haven't had to deal with so I don't really have any advice.
Let your mum know your there and try and distract her?
Look after yourself xxxx
Life can be beautiful if you let it.
Step back, breathe and take it in
Leigh I know the feeling, it is hard! Don't think it means you're lazy though, lots of people struggle with stuff like that and I'm sure it's even harder when you're tired from work etc. Is there anything that would help you get into a better routine?
Thank you. Good suggestions xx

I'm so sorry to hear that Claire. Parents separating is always difficult, especially when there's another party involved. I also think it's harder when you're older as you have a better understanding of what's going on and it can be trickier to get your head around. Just being with your Mum is probably more than enough, don't worry too much about what to say or do. Feel free to PM me about it; as you know I have experience in that area!
I'm good thanks, still settling in. Just went to a meet up of all the Psychology postgrads to get to know people which was nice. I'm so excited/terrified about what the future holds, but at the moment I'm just so happy to have my own little room in a lovely house in this amazing little place that I'm yet to explore!
Thank you guys. I really appreciate you all being so lovely.
I'm trying to be there, but it's hard because I've got work and uni and my life in Manchester, and she's still in Hull. My sister's cut both my parents off because she can't deal with it, and that's hurting mum more. I'm trying to make reasons to go back and just pop in, but I don't want Mum to feel smothered, or like I'm checking on her. I just hate seeing her so upset and unhappy.
I hope you're all okay though. Ali, that all sounds scary but super exciting.

That sounds really tough Claire but im sure your mum appreciates your visits and will understand that you have a life.
Ali I'm so glad you are enjoying it!

Star I hope your okay!

Cam, you do realise I'm now going to spend all day in uni singing "gotta catch 'em all"?!...Hmm.
Ali, I'm glad you're enjoying it, it will be a busy year/ 2 years - actually how long is the Msc? But it'll be worth it.
How's everyone doing? I hope you're all good x

That's great, well done! :) It's understandable that you feel sad though, you've been working there quite a while so it's bound to be sad leaving. When do you go?
