Hi all,
I've been caring for my wife with her chronic and undiagnosed back pain and the mental health issues that come along with it for 2-3 years now, but only very recently realised that was what I was doing. It's really helped me to see that as my role, and I'm starting to work out what support I might need to continue as the lighthouse in our family's storms, and keeping our 6YO afloat too. It'd be great to connect with fellow carers, to hear your stories, to vent and listen to your vents, and be here for each other, and learn what it is I need and want from you all.
