Losing my mind

Ever feel like you’re losing your mind? I’m struggling so bad to stay on top of everything, but I’m sinking and I can feel myself losing the battle. I’m stressed. Actually, I think stressed would be an improvement. There’s so many things in my life turning to shit at the moment, I’m not sure how … More Losing my mind

Another one.

School bullying has always been an issue, I’m guessing as long as there have been schools, there will have been bullying in some form.

Social outcasts or get involved?

Sitting at my child’s sporting presentation night and I’m sitting by myself, ignoring all the other adults around me.

I hate having to have conversations with people that I don’t know – heck, I hate having conversations with those … More Social outcasts or get involved?
