Hi JacquesPaul,

I’m thankful that Monica has been here to give you such good support and advice. She’s right about the bills etc. As long as your basic needs are being taken care of the rest is not important right now. I imagine you must almost be in shock from it all. I think it’s like we were in a trance and only when we can’t keep going do we wake up to the harm of it all. And shock at what we have done. I don’t want to say it’s just money, as we do need a certain amount to survive and live, but right now, it’s your health and state of mind that needs help. Frustrates me to no end the shortage of mental health support in a lot of modern countries. Lean on your family. Also, in my experience, squeaky wheel gets the grease! Ask your family to keep pushing as you are in no shape to push for yourself.
take care,
Laura
