Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

[Determined]

God evening all,

It is good hot chocolate weather here, has turned into a wet and miserable afternoon here and the temperature has dropped significantly.

Hi @Determined that is great to hear. The new job (or not so new since been here a year) been great but lately come with challenges as staff aren't working well as a team so trying get that figured out....hopefully with time. Good thing is i have support from my supervisor. 

My relationship with my boyfriend is going mostly well. Obviously comes with its challenges. He use to suffer from depression and at moment struggling with addiction (can't mention what) but it isnt alcohol or drugs. I am ok with it and he is trying to get better but guess struggling to figure out how to manage it. The good thing is he talks to me and he tells me when he relapses and I try be supportive. He rang me this morning to talk about how he is feeling and that's all great. But I just found out he might have relapsed and whilst it never bothered me today it made me feel a bit upset and am not sure why. I guess I also can't help but feel helpless 😥

Morning to everyone here too

Hi @Anony18

wow, a year, it has been a while,

It is good to hear your job is going well and there is support form your supervisor. Work politics can be the pits but so much eaiser when you have support from and know where you stand with management.

Good to hear things are going well with your boyfriend also, I did wonder but didn't want to pry. (I think it was still unofical and new last time we spoke).

Hope the current low is able to pass quickly. It seems you are communicating so that always helps. (Well it does for me anyway when my darling and I communicate).

Hi @outlander nice to see you too. How are you today?

@Determined my life is very different from a year ago but it's a good different. I know we will be fine and after a while talking to my bestie about it the upset feeling has gone but I know I have to raise it up with him. He has been feeling tired and low cause possibly the endorphins or lack from restraining from the addiction doesn't help. It also affects his libido which he feels guilty and overthinks about at times. Don't think helps with the weather as well. So the lack of doing stuff, that he is "lazing" is making him feel useless so it triggers and he relapses. Hopefully with resilience and time he will learn to manage and i will learn how best to help him. How is your darling?
