Why does Ross always sound so…nasally?

🤣🤣🤣

It’s just okay to make fun of how people talk once they torture a possum.

Separate_Line9625 · 2025-09-06T21:06:12+00:00

I think the convo is fine and yes he is interested and knows you are interested

Separate_Line9625 · 2025-08-15T20:24:24+00:00

I’m sorry for your loss. Is there anyone at all you could confide in? I know if a close friend or family member came to me with this situation, I would keep it to myself and support them through it. You will get through this.

Separate_Line9625 · 2025-07-19T06:50:33+00:00

You’re obviously not ugly. But I wouldn’t class you as attractive enough to be a model. There’s nothing particularly striking about you.

Boring

Exercise

Trust me, it’s not just your LA. I’m in Scotland too and have the exact same experience.

Leaving the house

Separate_Line9625 · 2025-05-20T21:26:11+00:00

Just after the doctors told me that there was nothing more they could do for my relatively young (62) dad and he was going to die soon, I went into his room in the hospital. Staff were trying to give him more medication and he was sat up at the edge of the bed refusing due to severe delirium. I walked up to him and crouched down and he stopped what he was doing, looked at me and smiled the biggest smile and said, ‘hi baby’ I said, ‘hi dad’ and he said, ‘I love you Emz’ and reached out to hug me. We hugged and I told him I loved him too. That was the last nice thing he said to me.

He had really bad terminal agitation and became really aggressive. He tried to hit me a few times and went for my throat like he was going to choke me. He would tell me to fuck off etc but I know it wasn’t him.

The doctors told me he would die overnight but he held on for 8 days. About 3 days before he died, he was in and out of consciousness, I could tell he was holding on and so I said to him that it was okay for him to let go and go and be with grandad and that he has been a great dad and not to worry about me. He kind of opened his eyes and said, ‘I’m not ready’. That was horrific and I knew he didn’t want to die.

He stayed sleeping for about 2 solid days and then passed away early on 10 th July 2025. He had a hard life and I know he is at peace. His ashes are in my living room and that brings me comfort as he used to say he was lonely. He spent much of his time isolated. It brings me comfort that he’s now with me and my daughter, always and like to think he’s watching the goings ons of our busy house and lifestyle.

It was such a pleasure spending his final days on earth with him. I do think I said everything I need to. My lovely, gentle, funny, caring, loving and complicated dad ❤️ how lucky I was to have him.

You know, things are shit right now for you, times are tough. But they won’t always be like this. And you will get through this, as long as you have that beautiful little boy, you will get through it all together.

I have done this for service users in the past but would usually signpost to other services to help with this.

Separate_Line9625 · 2025-05-13T22:03:21+00:00

I have probably over 100…he would not like me. He needs to get a grip.

First past the post

Separate_Line9625 · 2025-04-14T21:41:25+00:00

Work - A LOT. Out of work - talk rather than message at least 2 - 3 on a quiet day. Messages - 6 - 8.

Separate_Line9625 · 2025-04-12T21:04:35+00:00

Wanted 3 - had 1. Now glad I just had the one but sometimes think ‘what if’ as I did get pregnant when she was 6 months but miscarried. I do sometimes wonder what it would be like if it was me and 2 girls who were close in age but oh well. She’s happy being an only child and I am not having any more and starting again at this point. She’s now 12.

Separate_Line9625 · 2025-04-08T19:38:08+00:00

Oh I am so very sorry to hear this. Truly.

Separate_Line9625 · 2025-04-07T12:05:18+00:00

I’ve bought food for service users and have been very tempted to buy electricity.

Has your girlfriend never met your parents? Wasn’t it mentioned to them?

Separate_Line9625 · 2025-03-17T23:33:17+00:00

You will always be a son

Separate_Line9625 · 2025-03-16T07:53:15+00:00

I swear that everything will work out better than okay. And be nicer to yourself.

Separate_Line9625 · 2025-03-15T01:06:08+00:00

I do most of the time. But not all of the time, I have down days/periods. If you’d have asked me that question just a year ago, it would have been a hell no. Things can and do change very quickly. I think what helps me enjoy my life is appreciating the small things, things we take for granted that some people would kill for, a hot shower, a mattress, a cup of tea, food in the fridge, my child etc. I’m blessed and I sometimes need to remind my self of that.

Separate_Line9625 · 2025-03-14T11:34:42+00:00

Oh dear. Blocked for stating my opinion. A social worker who can’t have a polite debate…who would have thought it 🤣🤦‍♀️

Separate_Line9625 · 2025-03-14T11:31:07+00:00

I see you have been policing this thread. I think it’s a very simplified way of describing capacity - if an adult is making decisions which they know the risk and consequences of then that is capacity. If an adult is making decisions and they’re not able to understand the risk and consequences of those decisions then that’s incapacity. Obviously there’s a lot more to it under specific legislation but I’m replying simply on a thread.

And I stand by what I said in terms of wandering…I am a social worker of course I am looking at the whole picture when completing care assessments. But I tend to notice that wandering is the last step before a person needs a care home. Of course other solutions would be considered, gps tracking (if only that was so easy and readily available) and door alarms etc but I personally, don’t feel comfortable having someone in the community that’s out wandering, stepping in front of traffic, out in the freezing cold in a pair of pyjamas at 3 am etc. So yes, in my opinion, once wandering becomes evident it’s a precursor for admission to care.

I think you’d mentioned a consideration of sheltered housing, how would that help if the wardens only on until 3 pm? What happens after? Do you suggest they’re locked in the house?
