Venting Stories

  • Literacy

    Sunday, February 10, 2013 | A Venting story

    Illiteracy is a sad thing. The problem is not with the person who cannot spell, it is more with the culture accepting it as if it were okay. T.V. computers, and not enough nurturing of our children's individual imaginations is at the heart of the problem. We have the ability to be a country full of very educated citizens, yet we have a nation full of poor kids with gangs for families and no rea...

  • A Better Vent

    Monday, February 11, 2013 | A Venting story

    Ever since October I've been getting worse and worse.  That was when college was getting harder on my mentality and I started getting mood swings and breakdowns everyday along with panic attacks and IBS flare ups.   I remember begging mom sometimes to just let me drop out already and she was all "No just finish this semester so you can get the money and not have to pay it back."&nb...

  • What Am I Suppose To Do About Life?

    Saturday, February 16, 2013 | A Venting story


    I had another one of my 'episodes' today and if you keep track of my journals you will know what I mean, if not it's sort of where I get extremely upset and have no control over what I say or do and I barely remember it afterwards.
    I feel as if I am a failure. I had to drop out of college due to a breakdown and am still recovering from that. I do not plan on going back to college. I didn't enjoy...

  • Life can get to you

    Sunday, February 17, 2013 | A Venting story

    A few weeks ago I went in for a checkup. Turns out I am starting to develop an ulcer. But they gave me some medication and hopefully that will help. I went to the town where my surgeon is a day early just to get away from stuff that was going on around home. Things got out of control that day with my younger sister who is jealous of the baby. She didn't think the mom to the baby was making t...

  • Crazy doesn't seem to cover it.

    Friday, March 1, 2013 | A Venting story

    I'm beating myself up because I was selfish and spent the day shopping at goodwill for myself instead of meeting an old past relationship guy for lunch. I just wasn't in the mood to talk. I'm barely getting myself together I had the sinus surgery but was still feeling yucky to find out I have an upper respiratory infection.  On an antibiotic ugh. taking b complex and c and carrot acidolphilu...

  • One Of Those Weeks

    Saturday, March 23, 2013 | A Venting story

         I would prefer to not go through such a week again for a long time. (How about never?). At the beginning of the week, my work-driven daughter, who had been complaining about being exhausted and having trouble breathing,  passed out in our living room, turned blue in the face, and we had to call an ambulance to take her to the ER. While we were waiting for it, her heart st...

  • when will it stop

    Saturday, March 30, 2013 | A Venting story

    I'm just so frustrated.  I fall in a snow storm eight weeks ago and crack my shoulder.  Didn't think anything of it and it wasn't found until two weeks ago.  It's my right shoulder and of course I'm right handed.  I have a three month old baby to take care of and a six year old autistic child.  I have a husband who is a long haul truck driver so I am basically doing this ...

  • Stressed About Tomorrow

    Saturday, May 18, 2013 | A Venting story

    I try not to hollar too much or get too upset about things I can't change, but today, I need to vent a little. (Or maybe I'm whining, or maybe I'm dreaming of whining....) Lol Anyway, I just needed to set it all down.
    My life the last few weeks has been greatly complicated by my car breaking down. All of the family relatives are 100 miles away or more, and any friends I have are usually so busy w...
