hi sam i know how u feel but i care for my brother he has aspergers and im 11 to and its also hard being a girl and the youngest.

sometimes i want to go out but i cant because my mum gets really tierd too and she has bad circulation all over her body so if i wanted to go out on my bike with my mum she couldn't because she would get too cold and i really only go out in summer.

hi my name is Jen,(14)

i care for my little brother who has ADHD, asperges, dyslexia, dyspraxia and a few more things.

i'm looking for a few people to chat to who are in very similar situations to me or who are young careres and never really get much time to themselves or who are dedicated to the person they care for (bit like me :D)

just cus you're young doesn't mean no-one will talk to you - if anything it gives even more of a reason to give you suppost :D

how much time do you have to yourself and what do you like to do in those times?

hope you settle in well and feel a bit better bout people wanting to talk to you
