  • Not feeling comfortable!

    Thursday, October 11, 2012 | A Sad story

    Feeling like I may have made people feel uncomfortable here!  Might be a selfish feeling, always expecting people to respond to my posts or messages.  Who knows?  Might be all in my head!!

  • No paticular place to go

    Tuesday, March 5, 2013 | A Sad story

    I look ahead to the rest of my life and I see absolutely nothing I have to look forward to.  Divorce, loneliness, shame, the constant fight.  What am I fighting so hard for?  I'll never do anything on my "bucket list", I'll never be able to get back 24 years of marriage, and I'll never, ever get better.  Oh, maybe for a while, but it always comes back.  I can't get a job ...

  • Struggles

    Wednesday, March 13, 2013 | A Sad story

    I'm going to a bible study, doing a lot of praying and reading trying to train my brain to think different thoughts, its a constant battle inside my head.  Mornings are the worst. 
    I want to just love my son unconditionally no matter what his choices are, and I do, but I keep letting his choices and the people he surrounds himself with control my head.  The thoughts and visions of ...

  • I am a hostage

    Tuesday, April 2, 2013 | A Sad story

    I am a hostage and now I feel myself entering another season.  I am losing interest in DS and, at this time, I am tired but I don't want to go to bed.  I am in limbo.  I am not in heaven or hell.  I am suspended between. I am a stranger in a strange land.

  • No motivation to do anything.

    Wednesday, April 3, 2013 | A Sad story

    I have no motivation to do anything in my life. I left school in 2009, and I haven't done anything since. Shortly afterwards I had an interview to get into college, but they didn't want me. So, since then I have felt like I am not good enough... FOR ANYTHING. Going out with friends doesn't interest me anymore. 1. Because they have all left and don't speak to me anymore, because they all have boyf...

  • I AM AT A VERY BIG LOW!

    Wednesday, May 15, 2013 | A Sad story

    I talked to a lady, on the phone, about a job delivering news papers.  She told me that when I move to Beaverton, I should call her but until then, no job.  I can think of many choice pronouns for her but, I will use restraint and just call her a "lady."  If I had the job, I could move to Beaverton.  I cannot move to Beaverton, without a job. 
    Then, I started looking to s...
