Hi everyone, I'm just after some advice. I have two sons aged 19 & 11. We moved to Cardiff 9 years ago so I could live with my partner & because I moved away from my family, it's starting to take a toll on me. I would love to move back to be closer to my family, but it's just so awkward. My partner has his mum, friends & his full-time job here. I'm really struggling at the moment. I feel so depressed & lack motivation, I'm crying all the time, I've got no friends here. I'm socially awkward & I find it extremely hard to make friends. I feel lonely & isolated. My partner knows how much I love him, but I just can't cope anymore, we have discussed about moving back but I know deep down he doesn't want to but he says he doesn't want to lose me. He knows how unhappy I am being away from family. I can only visit them during school holidays but it will get to the point where I can no longer afford a train ticket. My parents are in their 70's & I worry about them every day. There's so much more to say, but right now, I just can't find the words. I'm literally at breaking point. 😢
