Mark Twain said "The cat is the only animal who has never been broken to the plow. If we were to cross man and cat, it would improve man, but degrade the cat." Another cat lover, lol. Ernest Hemmingway also loved cats. Me too. I have my two fur babies sitting on my lap right now. I stayed home from work for feline therapy in fact. These 2 are both so friendly.

Honestly when I feel broke is when it's hardest not to put stuff on the credit card. I need to stop. We are making debt payments and our big debts are almost paid but we will still owe a few thousand on the credit cards. I need to start saving but it's so difficult when you need things like furniture. Its stuff like this that made my husband almost leave me. I cant go there again. I know better!!!

I just did my books for my business and my spending and realized i overdid it in both areas. Now i have consequences. Im already dealing with consequences for past actions that ill never forgive myself for...but this...this is so not needed right now. I did the same thing. I am sorry for this pain you're going through. You are not a piece of you know what and you're not a failure. What is happening does not define you.

babyxgothxx Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 I am going to sound like a psycho, but I want to really hurt my crush... He's treating me like I'm invisible and is making me more depressed... But he has a good life, doesn't seem sad at all! He's really happy with his fiancee... He even spoke to my brother in front of me (didn't even look or talk to me) He knows my brother through me by the way... He knows it k i l l s me... I want to make him miserable, I feel hatred and don't know why... I'm such a psycho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WordsInTheWind Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 I feel like I've made a step in the right direction; I finally have an appointment - 4 weeks away. I have no doubt that this optimism is premature. With my luck this first appointment will be more of a meet and greet, and I will have to make another appointment for any real progress to be made. I am afraid of the hope that will build within the next 4 weeks; though I always try my hardest to remain realistic. But I just want an answer at this point, a solution big or small to my mental health struggles ... So as I said, a step in the right direction for once. All I have to do is figure out a way to explain what I have been experiencing, well enough for this Doctor to understand within a 15 minute appointment...

I understand completely. I owe a bunch of money on a credit card that I pay back little by little. Since that card is still used for some expenses, I may never pay it entirely. My spouse hates debt, though and I haven't told him the whole amount I owe. It's a lot. When we got married, shortly after that, I had to start paying back my student loans--which landed us in big trouble with money. We didn't have a credit card, but my inability to find steady work at the time really put pressure on the marriage. We barely got by. That whole year tainted our entire relationship.

I actually love the one thing that cat haters most hate about cats - that is, their independence. Dogs (wolves, of course) follow an Alpha, that's why they can be trained to do our bidding. The domestic cat's ancestors (European and Asian wildcats) did not and do not follow an Alpha, which is why they do their own thing. Taking direction is literally not in their DNA! It's not because they don't like us - they do - very few wild animals have liked us as much as the cat, or else they would not have hung around us for 20,000 years. Squirrels and raccoons do well with humans to, but they never get TOO close. Cats did and do get close, let us touch them. That says something. Current scientific thinking is that we did not domesticate them, they domesticated themselves by coming to our farms and cleaning up the rodents for us (big time, confided buffet for them!). I like friendly cats, but even they cuddle on their own time LOL! Everything with a cat is their decision, which I like because not only do they give me companionship, they exhibit the kind of self-reliance, personal command, and independence that I aspire to for myself. Not one ounce of needy in a cat (except for the food thing, because they have not yet mastered the can opener LOL - hard without hands, I got to admit). Our world demands and celebrates dog-like dedication and servitude. Cats say "Screw That, MFs!" If you can afford them, I highly recommend them, especially for people like us who need such amazing spirits with us to show us the way. Plus, a more amazing athletic specimen in nature is hard to imagine. The things they do with ease are mind blowing - like leaping three or four times their own height and always landing on their legs, and catching critters and changing direction while running and sleeping 18 hours a day : ). I am in awe of the little buggers!!!! OK, I will stop. I like cats, in case you can't tell!!!! LOL!!!! Absolutely wonderful expression. I don't know how, but I would love to see your posting shared more broadly. Adoption and cat fancier sites of course. Surely there are places that other DF folks can suggest. It's too good to just share with us, and it's so true! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LonelyHiker Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 Feeling about as lonely as I've ever felt. The worst part is, I'm getting used to it...it's become the norm. I have no one. I can't even cry about it anymore. I'm all out of tears. I'm just empty, numb, desolate....a zombie.

Why am I such a wimp? This illness makes me so tired and fragile. My coworkers do this full time and then sign up for overtime. I work 4 days a week and can barely drag myself through it. I'm sitting in the office with my head on the desk...I've got such a huge pile of work to get done but I can't bring myself to start it. I have no energy or motivation. Even the thought of my boss yelling at me isn't enough to light my fuse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
