We care! Supporting Simmers going through hard times.

I'm doing okay and not going through any troubles right now, but I just wanted to say that this is a really wonderful idea for a thread. Simmers don't let other simmers sim sadly if we can help it.

Thankyou very much for your support of this thread @jcp011c2 .

@SelenaGrey - Health worries are no fun. Whatever it is (and it is totally your choice to share or not) the well wishes are there. If you ever get to a dark place when thinking about it becomes to much, just remember you brighten a lot of peoples day on here, and on the off-line world as well I'm sure. I know it won't take away whatever the issue is, but let that be a shining light in the darker places.

Edited because my OCD won't let me knowingly have typos. I'm sure I have enough that I don't know about as it is. Edited again, holy crud. The thought is pure but the typing was a mess.

I was going to post something on my wall last month but I didn't know if I should because I didn't want to cause a scene or make a fuss about it. I actually got some bad news from my doctor recently. I don't want to go into detail but I'm scared about my health. Anyway, it's nice to see support. Thanks for making this thread . :)

Hello @SelenaGrey. I am sorry to hear that you got some bad news from your doctor, that has caused you to be concerned about your health. Please know that I will be thinking of you as you face the results of the news from your doctor. Sending special thoughts to you.

I think this thread is a great idea and thanks for starting it Rose. Selena, I'm sorry you got bad news and I hope all turns out well for you.

@goofygoober25 I'm sorry you are dealing with all that you are, family and your disability, that's a lot to carry! I hope that your mother continues to improve in her health and becomes stronger, it has to be a scary time for her and you both. As for your sisters, there isn't a lot you can do, but you can be there for your mom. As Selena said, love her, help her and be there for her. It's all you can do at this point. In time, who knows your sisters may figure it out and clean up their own act. If you ever need to vent, you know we are here for you. Sims is a great outlet, to be able to have fun and zone and not think about reality so much. Hang in there. Big hugs to you. :)

I am so glad this thread was made. I honestly hope you all find some small comfort here. As for me, I have a lot on my shoulders right now, and I am so worried. This year my mom was in ICU for two weeks and almost died of a severe infection. At one point the doctors said she only had a 15% chance of living. Luckily she made it through but she is just so incredibly sick that I fear I may lose her. She happens to be my best friend second only to my husband. I feel like I am losing my family. My father passed. I do not have contact with my sisters because of their actions. One is a prescription drug addict and constantly steals from or begs for my moms pain medication. Mom just gives in because shes too sick to argue and she suffers for it. My other sister fell in with the wrong people, and shows signs of street drug use and I am all but certain she is pregnant because she is starting to look like it. She refuses to get a job and milks off the government and takes advantage of my mom. I just cannot stand the fact that they constantly take and take and take from her. To top if off, I have had a disability since I was 15 years old (26 now) and have been unable to work because of it. I cannot get any kind of financial help because I have never worked. My husband and I have absolutely no savings to our name because all of it goes to the doctor bills because of psychiatric and health related issues and medication which are vital to my well being (only reason I am simming right now is because a computer and the game were gifted to me as a gift from my grandmother in an attempt for me to reach out to others and have a little fun on the side) I feel so alone because I have no friends besides my husband/mom/grandmother and because of my disability I will never be able to start a family of my own. I feel like I have complained too much, but I just feel like I had to get that off my chest and I am thankful for the listeners. I realize there are people a lot worse off than I am and I am thankful for what I have, but sometimes it feels like too much. Thanks for reading, whoever takes the time to read this. I hope you all find happiness, even if it is a small piece.

I love the things that other people have said to you here. Just remember that if you don't take care of yourself first, you can't be there for anyone else. And no, you have not complained too much! I'm delighted that you have this outlet, and a virtual world that you can play in.
