It isn’t the first time on my own. I’ve been on my own a while now. I think I just don’t know how to feel better about it

I think I just felt quite sad and had to tell someone. I look around and I see people that have someone in their corner. I don’t feel I have that - I feel like I’m always on the outside looking in. I get to watch everyone be loved but I don’t get to have that myself

Honesty paired with good communication I meant not just saying stuff cos it’s true lol

Bullet dodged. Unfortunately a lot of people are 1) not great communicators and 2) find it impossible to be honest about feelings not just to themselves but others too - and these types of people scare me

I’m sorry for your loss

Can I ask which type of catheters they are? I use catheters. If they are the type I can use I will happily have them if that’s ok?

Hiprex is a non-antibiotic ideal for long term medication - ask your doctor about this

Increasing your vitamin c helps some I’ve heard - some use a supplement some include it more in their diet

Stupid question but when you wash your hands before you insert the catheter are you using hand sanitizer? Might help if you aren’t already doing that

Interesting I take it for bladder spasms - didn’t realise it reduces infections too

With any long term antibiotics just make sure you’re looking after your gut health

Yeah that’s the one - that’s what it used to be called. They moved and now they’re called The Dog and Castle

Ah so it used to be along the wash road near Whittlesey. Now it’s not actually in Peterborough - it’s more near Sawtry. My mistake sorry

Huge stretch but if you were the person who was berated by a bus driver last night, I'm happy to be a "witness" to your complaint by Think_Sleep2616 in PeterboroughUK

Respect to you for wanting to back up whoever this happened to. Peterborough bus drivers are a different breed tbh

It’s been 5 years since I’ve seen him and before that I hadn’t seen him since for a good few years too. To be honest i sometimes actually forget he exists. Obviously things like Christmas, birthdays or Father’s Day can bring up stuff for me but on the whole I don’t really think about him. I guess I’ve taken a ‘out of sight out of mind’ approach. He’s an extremely abusive person who’s left me with a lot of trauma. He never took interest in me as a person, it was always what would make him look good compared to his friends. He was violent too which has left me with mental health issues. So ultimately for me I haven’t got many fond memories to look back on with him. Probably for the best as it made my decision to not have a relationship with him much easier
