“A note for the next person. I was in the same place nearly four years ago. Their dad pays nothing, and I couldn't see past it. Last month I had people round for dinner. The bad days get further apart.”
“Please be gentle with yourself so I wasn't, and it made everything harder so I had to ask for help and it nearly killed me, but it was the right thing, and talk to someone, even if it's just in here.”
“I was sure I'd never feel normal again. I was wrong. I stopped trying to be the perfect parent. good enough is enough. keep going, even slowly.”
“Sei que agora parece que não vais ter um minuto para ti. Eu também senti isso. O que me ajudou foi aceitar ajuda quando aparecia. Uma vizinha que ficava com os miúdos uma hora, uma colega que trazia sopa, o meu irmão que levava a Leonor ao parque. Não é fraqueza pedir. E tenta arranjar um cantinho na tua semana que seja só teu, mesmo que sejam dez minutos a ouvir um disco. Vais ver que esses minutos te salvam o dia.”
