River Rain Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 I'm sorry. Sometimes when it rains, it pours, please be strong and take care of yourself. Some things are out of our control, and we have to find a way to deal with the stress or it eats us up.
KathyM Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 I'm sorry your family is going through this. Your mother needs you to stay strong so you can help her through this. Take care of yourself, get plenty of rest, exercise (which helps you keep up your mood), and look into finding some relaxation exercises that will help to calm you down when you are feeling overwhelmed or have anxiety. You may want to consider seeing a counselor to talk to during this difficult time, or a spiritual advisor if you are spiritual. You can get through this, but please take care of yourself so that you will stay strong and emotionally healthy.
