I don't think this reads as whiny at all.

It's just real life,

Oh yes, a space of one’s own. I get it. I do get the space, but don’t have a physical space of my own.

It’s ok to not have all the answers R. No one does! I admire you for reaching out for them. And your honesty.

Gold star for Tim. Two actually. I need to be told those two gems often!!

You’ll feel better after your life summit weekend, I reckon xx

P.S. I usually need to re-read posts a couple of times before responding, so I think it’s totally ok to take your time to reply to things!

I think I’ll feel better after the Life Summit, too. And I already feel better just by doing my silly little workouts, making some lists, scheduling my laundry days & talking about it xx

The idea of making a list of things that are hard and asking a friend for help is genius!

My brain just could not come up with solutions on its own but once I asked for help it started things rolling which was all I needed.

You are my voice of reason. Tim said to me “if I said that you you’d get mad” & I said “she says it different” lol

Whiny Bitch #2 over here. I had a quiet little tantrum when doing the grocery shopping because people seemed to be going out of their way to be annoying and I just couldn’t take it anymore! Retreated home for some kitchen pottering, a big drink of water and some Real Housewives viewing, and equilibrium seems to have been restored. I think it’s definitely right that you sometimes need to be a whiny bitch to your safe person so that you don’t take it out on others, that’s really true and great advice.
