Lurkers

If you are lurking in the background taking in the information and not really saying much, just remember…..we all have issues and you will be surprised at what the people in this group have been through. If you want to talk but not sure how….drop me a message, I haven’t got all my shit together and I’m definitely not perfect but I’m a good listener.

Definitely stop being a lurker just writing down how I’m feeling here really helps me knowing the support and no judgement on the posts really helps 💪

Life throws you curve balls

So my father in law has been diagnosed with a rare form of lung cancer which in a healthy person the timescale is 12 months but he’s very weak and frail but now at home And then yesterday I get a message late in the evening from my Niece to say that my Sister had collapsed at home and has been taken into hospital. She had been feeling poorly last few weeks but put it down to a virus but after some initial tests she had high potassium levels which have started to attack her kidneys and also sepsis which they have started to treat via a drip. I really think 2026 can F@@K off already and with something that’s going on at work this is going to test my own mental strength but I know I will get through better then the old Bob would of 💪💪💪

@John Black I really think the old Bob would of just reached out to the cans of cider to drown out what was happening but then only to wake up feeling shit and feeling more sorry for themselves that would of spiralled into shit eating and so the circle continues. New Bob is now more focused and determined, dont get me wrong I was really tempted to have a drink the last few days but I knew deep down that wasn’t going to be the answer. I didn’t stop drinking because of a drink issue I could always go without if I wanted I stopped drinking for my own health regime and it was only a 6 month challenge to myself but now currently 2 years I don’t want to go back to my old self as I’m enjoying the new me and I know the new me is going to be prepared and ready for the upcoming obstacles that will in no doubt come my way. I will be more focused for me as at the end of the day I’m as important as those around me and a stronger minded Bob is better then the old Bob Hope that all makes sense it did in my head anyway 😝 💪

Let the fog fuck off

Who’s been out for a walk this week? Who’s taking steps to clear the fog? Who’s stuck and doesn’t know which foot to lead with?

Been out a few times after work to clear my head and just think positive thoughts and take in the fabulous views I’m lucky to have living on the coast 👍
