If you want to talk with @tyme please email team@saneforums.org and they will get your email as they are the Community Lead on the Forums.
I know you have been going through a tough time looking after the kids @Sunnyside226 and it's good that you set a boundary and called your brother, and they are going to stay with your friend for the rest of the time.
It's ok to display anger @Sunnyside226 we are here to support you and know that you have been going through a tough time lately.
How do you feel now you have made this plan?

@Jynx @RiverSeal no it's obviously not okay to feel anything or do anything everyone thinks all I do is harm the kids which I haven't and that's all everyone thinks of me
I feel shit for doing the plan with my friend but I can't handle everyone telling me I am hurting them
Once they gone with her I am out too
I am crying I might just disappear

I'm sorry that you are feeling like this @Sunnyside226 and we know that you were doing a great job with the kids and managing your own MH as well. It was a big responsibility and you demonstrated courage and how brave you are.
Maybe once the kids are no longer your responsibility and are with your friend you will feel better. What do you think you will do tonight?
I'm going to send you an email to check in with you so please keep an eye out for your inbox.

@Sunnyside226 Honestly hun you've had just waaayyy too much on your shoulders - it's no wonder you're so stressed and needed to make this plan. It might feel shitty now, and your brain might be telling you that you failed or something else nasty like that - but your brain would be wrong. @RiverSeal is right, we all know you were doing the best you could in a really heavy situation.
Did it help to speak to Lifeline?

@Jynx they were okay it I think 🤔
To be honest I am angry and suicidal because I am sick of people always saying I am harming kids doing this you know what it's no one's business what I do as I have told Tyme I would never hurt kids but once you push me I lose my cool and yes I did today when @tyme is back I want to talk to them no where everyone can see
@Jynx how are you long time no talk
