Also, Brave, Honest, Self-respecting, Fierce & Thankful. I ended a friendship today. They messed up with me time and again, apologizing after each time only to hurt and upset and disappoint me once more. Eventually I had enough and boundaries mean very little if I'm not prepared to enforce them. It was a difficult conversation. They cried, pleaded for one last chance and I had to sound like a broken record. To sort of fortify my resolve, I kept in my mind an affirmation I read someplace: I can't control your behavior, I can only control my exposure to it. Wow, I hope that you can find comfort and a peace of mind as you move forward with your life 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tymothi Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 I had a truly wonderful time with my separated wife and her daughter the last few days. They drove all the way down, hauling a bunch of my junk. The wife took the time to explore my puny super humid town, and the daughter taught me how to read scales on a guitar. For once, I actually think I've had a genuinely good couple of days. Despite the heat. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duck Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 Feeling physically ill. I checked my BP and it is higher than it should be. Too many nasty people to deal with in society. The sun is out after a rainy day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've told me so that's how I know. I'm not really alone in this world somehow I'm less than alone. I would be better off alone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure the story of me learning how to use it on my own will be one of those stories. We'll see. Just don't saw off your finger!! I have a pretty tight friend group, and the three of us love each other to pieces. But I do have a larger friend group where yes, friends come and go. I got a hoverboard last night but it was super late so I can't ride it but I can today! Just gotta beg it to be just like my sis's!!!!!!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think we're gonna leave you, if you do, your wrong. I know there are a hecking lot of nasty people out there, (like my ex) and Jaelyn, and, I could go on and on but that wouldn't help. I know for certain I don't want you to die, and as a matter of fact, I don't think anyone here does. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I first got a chainsaw someone told me a story of someone that decided to cut his own tree down and cut his arm off. I'm not as much of an idiot as I come accross as sometimes. I only use a chainsaw if there is no other way. I'll actually take more time and use hand saws if I can because it's safer. I haven't had friends in real life in years and probably never will again. I would like a hoverboard but I would rather have the time machine or a delorean at least. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no intentions in dying any time soon but the people that keep asking me I am in the will right will get a surprise in the end. They will be in the will but I'll make sure I leave this world in as much debt as I possibly can so they'll get what they ask for that's for sure! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Floor2017 Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 I am not my best today I am in pain and it will not go away,but I am still trying to smile as much as I can. While I serve the people in the CCU. It's tough sometimes fighting physical pain, depression and anxiety at the same time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkd_sd Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 Not exactly sure. Tired for one thing. Just got back to town. Long story, so I will try for the shortest version. Mother is in the hospital. They are taking good care of her, but her condition has its 'ups and downs'. It looks like things are going to work out one of two ways, but both options have their own issues and complications. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightjar Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 I feel so far away from any kind of 'normal' life. I know a lot of people feel the same right now. I wonder if I'll ever make it 'back to normal' and I wonder if I even want to. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never enjoyed any relationship of any kind so far but you know depression I "need" someone. Within 10 seconds of absolutely anyone on earth showing up here I would run out the back door and jump the fence like the deer. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most likely there will end up being what they are already calling a 'new normal'. Will I (or anyone else) even recognize that it is the 'new normal' until well after the fact? If not, we are in for along stretch of feeling 'un-normal'. I think we need to each define our own 'new normal' and stick by it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went from "once COVID is done, things will get better" to realizing it's never getting better. If it's going to be like this until I'm dead, I'd rather just go now. Not suicidal, just wanting to be obliterated from existence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
