holiday stress

Ugh I'm stressed to my limits today. My partner is driving me out of my mind. Seems as if no matter what I do it isn't right. If I could crawl in a corner and hide I sure would do it. I just want a good life. Nothing special I'ld settle for boring and stressfree. Doesn't seen to matter if I take my pills or not I can't get over this feeling of worthlessness. I know I'm a good person, I tell myself I'm a good person but I can't seem to convince myself. Wish I had a place to go to just sit and cry. I do that here and then I have to listen to that also. Will things ever get easier in this life of mine?

((((Keitha)))),

Why does such a "joyful" holiday come packaged with so much stress? You are not alone! I love the holidays, but my anxiety always goes up.

I hope your partner can see that all the fuss is not helping. I'm sure calm will come eventually.

Try to see the good side of the season! Relax and try for some quiet time to pampered yourself.

Can you bundle up and visit the horses...they were always great company when I was going through tough times. They are always sympathetic if you need a good cry.

Hugs,
Dee

Dee my partner of 10 years has just told me she doesn't want to be with me anymore. So here I am with DD and two grandsons and no money to go anywhere. I won't stay here, this was my dream place but without Mel it will only bring bad memories. So now my mind is working overtime trying to figure out how to make things right. Guess you could say right now I HATE life and pretty darn tired of it. Wish the Good Lord would find it in His heart to take me home.

Oh Keitha, I'm so sorry...but your DD and grandsons need you and love you. Always remember that.

I know your head must be spinning now. Please try to take some time and not make hasty decisions though. There would be a lot a good memories too right? Just hard to see now.

Hugs,
Dee

(((Keitha))) That's a shame): Things seemed to be going so well for you. Unfortunately, we are all too easily

Ladies thank you for you kind words and support. I know they say God gives us no more then we can handle but I think he must believe I've got the broadest shoulders around. And I also know that He will take me to be with Him when He sees fit. The alternatives are not worth the price one has to pay.

And yes Sheri I am so hoping she'll come to her senses and see we are meant to be together. Maybe she's just having a rough day also. I tried to talk with her about it but all we ended up doing was hollering at each other. Mel's one of those people it's her way or no way. Usually I'm ok with that but there are times I just gotta speak out.
