Went for a country drive and had lunch with one of Mr Darcy's Aunts today @Totman

[Totman]

A good drive is superb... especially in the country... helps one forget the goings on we live in right now... 

 Its great to be able to see folk.... we all need that....

Has there been something that has been particularly rough for you at present @Totman 

[Totman]

Actually no Darcy...
Im a 20 year veteran og bipolar disorder in my partner. Id just like the opportunity to talk to like partners. I tried reaching out once... but it was a failure.

Lovely to hear @Totman 

Connecting with others who understand has been helpful for me.

A quick forum tip, if you type in a @ symbol you will get the option to tag other forumites as I have done with you,  this lets them know you have mentioned them and they will get an email alert. 

Have you any hobbies? We do have some lovely social discussion threads.

Must admit to feeling a touch alone sometimes... partners in likeminded situations dealing with similar illnesses.. will help I reckon. I know I need help... bit battle weary all in all

It can be a hard slog, things certainly picked up for Mr Darcy & I when I educated myself and learned how to support him in a healthy way.
