As I have said I am preparing for a fourth resit in the first exam of a Diploma in Wills and Probate .
My Mother sustained a foot injury a week ago and was given a Tetanus injection and she complains several time’s a day of her foot injury and is stubborn to see a Doctor .
I hardly go out , I try to study and my anxiety is constantly worsened by her worries which she puts on me .
I can understand how hard it is . Sending a big hug . Hear if you want to chat
Hello
How are you ?
I am trying to prepare for the resit but she tells me of her symptoms several times
Very hard for me at times
I am feel funny thanks for asking . She may try to pull you away from studying try to study. I can understand
I hope you are ok
I think I already feel sad that I spent my forties caring for my Father now gone
I turn fifty one next month but I am close to passing the exam and I would like to find a years work experience but every time my Mother tells me of her worries I just become overwhelmed with worry ?
I wonder if she is becoming like a child demanding attention
Also when she had a male friend in her wife she gave him the priority over me
Only when he became controlling and abusive did I stand up to him
I think I wonder when I will ever be able to make a life for myself
I am fifty totally isolated but she does have friends and a cousin who visits her
But still never enough
I think she just demands attention and reassurance like a child
Put yourself first and do the work experience . Your Mum has to look after herself you need to take a step back. Your Mum needs to sort herself out ...
Good evening
I hope you are ok
I have not even applied for the work experience placement yet
I seem to be concentrating on the resit which is the middle of September.
I have done a Mock Exam and I am waiting for the results
I have had several narrow failures so preparation and the right mental attitude is key .
I hade learnt from previous failures that my Mother has a tendency to impact on me her worries and this prevents me from doing the best that I can
I think it is most unfair at times for her to behave in this way knowing that I gave up my forties to care for Dad whilst her life remained undisturbed .
