If you get a change read the following story example that highlights the dangers of "so called convesion disorder" diagnosis.

It sounds like you have a very difficult job to do. And it reads like you are doing your very best despite your barriers you might have along the way. Sounds like you are super mum 🙂

Im curious as to what you do for your self during the week for self care?

Looking after your self or treating your self as a carer is very very important- you need extra because you work so hard at your job out and your carer job at home AND your a mum.

Examples and ideas of self care:

Do you exercise? A walk a few times a week? Or swimming

Do you keep up a good diet?

Treats for your self ideas: Coffee out once a week, paint your nails ( if thats your thing) buy a new movie once a month?

Looking forward to your reply
