I will have to @Zoe7, to ba able to cope.
When we were coming here for holidays I was enchanted with a lot of things. The change in our family dynamics and the “enforced” move has taken the gloss off it all, well and truly at the moment, so I am going to allow myself some sulking time, and then need to get back up and on with it,
When we are here for uni terms I will go in search of support groups, which I can access here more readily thanI can in the West. These short stints are part of feeling like we are in limbo.
I will put coping mechanisms in place gradually. I just don’t have the stomach for it yet.
