sober4life Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 Not a chance. If my name was on the mortgage for the house I would just move back in like Walt did on Breaking Bad. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rattler6 Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 Tired. A bit grumpy and angry. Was going to go to a meeting but was too tired and it was not needed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If my name was on the mortgage for the house I would just move back in like Walt did on Breaking Bad. I often get told that I look like Walter White. Especially when I'm wearing my brimmed hat. I didn't know what people were talking about until I borrowed the first season of Breaking Bad from the library (I don't have cable or wi fi at home).

I'm on half the mortgage for the house where my ex and daughter still live. I live in a dump of an apartment with leaky windows. I never know if I'm going to make rent from one month to the next. I seriously considered moving the cats and myself into the minivan over the summer. It's still a possibility. i inherited a camper trailer from my dad when i went to go get it i found out my sister had sold it, that alone wouldve helped me out alot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kogent5 Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 My supervisor where I volunteer suggested I apply for this job that I am woefully unqualified for (it's the type of job listing I would skip because pretty much none of it describes me). He said it would be good practice since I will start job-hunting in the New Year (and he even got my hopes up since he will be one of the people overseeing the hiring process), but I know it's going to massively hurt when they choose someone else. I love where I volunteer, I love the cause, I love the people there. Pretty much the only thing I hate is that I can't be there every day. They don't hire much either because their budget is so tight. I'm just so sad. I was telling my friend that there's nothing I can offer that other people can't do better. I just feel a bit like sticking my head in the oven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PraiseBrownies Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 (edited) Conflicted. So many mixed emotions. Stuck in such a strange position. I don't want to be here. I miss the cats. It's cold. I can't sleep alone. When will a therapist finally email be back? I'm so touch starved. The tears just spontaneously start and stop. I smiled at him today and got a smile back. He held my hand and kissed my forehead and told me he loved me. I don't want to be here. I don't have a home to go to. I don't have a family I belong to. I don't have a purpose. I'm just here. Breathing. Blinking. Waiting for more tears. Everyone is telling me different things. "You can't help how you feel" vs. "You can choose how you feel." What's the truth? Last night being alone hurt so much that for the first time in almost a decade I crawled into my father's bed and asked to spend the night because I was afraid. Of being alone with my own thoughts.

Its going to be more difficult for me this year, since my daughter left. We always made cookies, and prepped for dinner with the family. My therapist asked if I had a plan of what I would do when I became overwhelmed or just ready to head for the hole of hell. Same thing with my family past, present, and maybe future. My mom passed on Christmas Eve back in 1997 so it's an awful time even though she was extremely violent. I just have to add this. When I tell doctors my mom was violent they defend her. They make excuses for her. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ladysmurf Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 My family tends to keep holidays pretty plain and simple, which is good for me. As far as Christmas I don't go crazy buying people gifts or anything, only for the my nieces and nephews , other than that, I don't want to waste time driving to buy people gifts. I don't get why people make such a big deal of it, it's just a day it will pass. It's better that you have company to spend the day with, than a bunch of presents. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christmas became a very negative time for me while I was still married. My ex would criticize each and every gift I bought her. It was never good enough. After a few years of that, I began to completely dread the holiday and would drink myself stupid just to keep myself blacked out until it was over. I now spend Christmas with my cats and I'm infinitely happier as a result. It still churns up bad memories for me, but at least they are now only memories. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christmas is a commercialized geared on mass spending. The 2nd Thanksgiving. Honestly, I am only spending on my immediate family and, a few people to show how much I appreciate them. Honestly, I am not spending on my cousins(except 1, ppl forget or don't bother that the 24 is his birthday) and aunts and uncles. I don't have money to spend on so many ppl. I even opted on this Secret Santa at work. Point of this holiday is about giving out of appreciation and kindness. Some think to much of what gift they are expecting. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sober4life Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 I probably won't have a good day again until March. Who would be happy here. The sun is never out. Everything looks dead outside and the whole day it looks like it's almost dark outside. This is what it will be for months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a lot of wussies and female dogs in power and there are not so nice people around. I try to be a kind person even when I am in one of my dark moods. Right now I feel a bit eager, frustrated, lonely, brash. Trying to think about how I want to feel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
