Sadly, sometimes the most important lessons are often the most painful too. With each hurt, steel slowly forms around me heart. Thanks for reading.

So tired of my 25 yr son with high functioning Autism & ADHD, my next 24yr son who is my career and then my 11yr old son who also has Autism and ADHD fighting all the time when there home together and there all calling me to stop the other one from starting and I'm sick of beeing court in the middle especially as its one of my triggers.

It happened again. That's the 4th time in only 10 days.
I was insistently followed from the supermarket all the way to my car - then asked for money.
I virtually had a melt-down last weekend, when that guy followed me then screamed at me (when I couldn't give him money).
It's been a different person each time.
I feel like I'm being stalked, my personal boundaries are disrespected & invaded
I feel unsafe there now.
It takes me great effort to go down to the shop to get essential food stuff - I'm usually very tired.
Now I cannot really go to those shops anymore, because I cannot deal with being targeted everytime I go there.

I just don't know where I fit on here ...carers and lived experience.... I know personally that there is no fit...I seem to upset people where others appear glorified.....perhaps I just don't fit here on either forum... I feel that there is judgement on those who are justified to post their grief on both sides ... I feel that there is judgement within this very forum of carers and lived experience...I think that this is a mirror of the real world...

My back pain is excruciating tonight, it's been worse all afternoon.
Usually (for the past 25 years) it's been only at night, disrupting my sleep (but not every night).
Now it's bad for hours in the afternoons, as well. Owww....
I'm already very tired, but can't relax with it hurting so much.
I finally had an sms reply (this afternoon) from the MH Support group people - they apologised for not turning up (last Saturday), when the group was supposed to be on. I had driven out there for it, but no-one turned up. I did have the right date & time (they said), but they got it wrong....
Chronic pain really gets me down, I've been living with it for decades.
