flower girl agony auntSorry to hear about your recent loss.

It must be very difficult for you having no space or time to yourself, but please try and see this from a different angle as well, grand parents as annoying as they can be at times are a treasure and i did not realise that until i lost my grandad and i sat down and thought about it and realised that i had not seen him for six months, and the worst thing is he only lived 10 mins away, that still haunts me today and that was six years ago, so i make sure i visit both my nans every week now.

Is there not anywhere else in the house that you could sleep, i know it's not ideal but at least you might get a decent nights sleep which would make you feel better.

Take care.xx.

YummyMummy agony auntCan you not sit down and chat with your parents, if you live with them that is as you didn't say. I'm sorry to hear about the loss of your aunty.

Your parents need to take in to account you NEED your own space. Your nan either sleeps elsewhere or goes in to a home, or you look to move out.

Seen as you nan is sharing with you I am guessing you are living at home and not on your own?
