Well i havnt really been on DS for a while. Im just so ehausted, physically and mentally. Im trying to run the business on my own because he doesnt get out of bed, as well as looking after the house and the children. Money has run so low that im now borrowing from my mum. I cant eat properly, it makes me feel sick. Im trying to eat high energy foods but its so difficult forcing myself, and now, worst of all im having trouble sleeping. The only good thing to come out of it is that i can fit into all my old clothes! My husband wants to go back to detox but business is so quiet that it will take months to afford it, and days pass into weeks. Time is flying and things are just getting worse and worse. All i need is sleep and energy and then il be able to carry on but without these things im suffering big time. Im thinking of asking doctor for something to help me sleep. I need to do something. I just cant carry on. Everyday normality for me is just hard work

" Oh i bet you can do it ^^. Perspective is everything, if you think you can do it, you can, but if you think you can't, you won't. Sometimes that whole cliche philosophy is a total bitch, but hey, it's true, so I don't question it. Everyday normality..is overrated, just make yourself happy, whatever it takes dude. It's important.
Best of luck!
Hope you sleep well xD "

" you know, i always had the "luxury" of being the "sick" one. unfortunately, if i was on something, there was no problem (in my world) and if i wasn't, i was too busy feeling sick, tired, etc. to even consider or care about the "well" person taking care of me. it honestly didn't occur to me that taking care of me was anything other than a PLEASURE, much less a strain. i'm assuming that you are not an addict , which is why i've told you this. (we are really self centered) i've been clean a couple of years now but it's still a daily mental struggle (thank god for suboxone...the ONLY way life is possible for me). tell "him" your side of it. , it may give him perspective, you may get some deserved thanks and some added effort on his part. at least you'll feel better getting it off your chest. don't know his addiction, but see if suboxone is an option "
