...Small steps, but in the right direction Sparky. Patience is you ally right now, it’s a good idea to take a couple of days off after a hearing, give yourself a chance to regroup and recharge... go and do something you enjoy.
All the best and well done.
Thanks Mojo.
It's great to see the little one again, if only I could take a couple of days off, not long though until I'm off on holiday where I'll have a couple of weeks to regroup and recharge in the sun.
...Something to look forward to! Even if you can’t physically take a couple of days out, try and disconnect emotionally, watch a movie, have a couple of beers... some time out, where you're not thinking about the case and all that goes with it.
All the best
Thanks Mojo.
Yea, I get what your saying now. It's definitely important to wind down and take ones mind off things. I try to chill out and take my mind off things, especially more so now as it has in the past had me feeling miserable so I do try to have some me time now to think about other things other than what's going on with court, contact etc.
We’ve all been there, I still remember the strain from years ago, it could be all consuming sometimes, and it got to the point where we had to disconnect ourselves from the case emotionally...to step outside of it and try and view it impersonally, as a solicitor would... it actually worked! But down time was equally important and saved our sanity at times!
All the best
