  • I AM SO MUCH BETTER THAN THIS!

    Wednesday, February 27, 2013 | A Painful story

    I am upset and disappointed with myself!  I used my pain, which is vast, as an excuse to do something that was wrong.  I forgot that I took away my permission to do wrong things.
    In 2008 when I did the worst thing I ever did, I suffered immense guilt and pain.  I have never done that particular wrong thing again, but being involved with a married man is also quite wrong.  And,...

  • I am going to make a series of journal entries that I hope will help people understand what The Other Woman goes through when she is essentially a good person, and was led to believe by a mm that he fully intended to leave his wife since long before they ever met.  And she is hurting from decades of a now ending emotionally and sexually abusive marriage.
    Right now I am weak.  This is th...

    Wednesday, March 6, 2013 | A Painful story

    I am not used to feeling that way.  Like I am pointless.  Not even me when I am weak.   I pray a lot, and I mean a lot.  This afternoon, I was weeping and praying and told The Goddess that I was weak, and She told me that it's OK to be weak.  And I said No, it is not OK for me.
    I'm struggling to do the right thing when I am weak, sad, hurting, downcast.  I am fa...

  • Welcome To My World

    Sunday, April 7, 2013 | A Painful story

     
    The world of the abused, sad, miserable.  Right now feeling suicidal.  But will hang on and instead blog about one of the least talked about, but one of the worst things abusers do to their victims.  I am referring to Crazy-Making Behaviors.  By that I mean is things that abusers do that make no sense.
    Here Are  Examples:
    Conversation with my abuser:

  • I Don't Often Get Angry, But I Am Pissed Off

    Saturday, April 13, 2013 | A Painful story

            So, the medication which KEEPS ME ALIVE (Otherwise brain death occurs after several seizures) is now banned in my state. WHY? Because ass-hole drug dealers ruined it for those who NEED the pills for pain, life, etc., not just a high. So NOW guess what usa government? I have to rely on street drugs. THANK YOU. Your plans fall flat on their asses, and then...

  • I keep trying

    Wednesday, April 24, 2013 | A Painful story

    I am sorry for whining, but I am damn tired of one bad thing after another happening, and when something good happens, it never lasts.  And none of the bad things are my fault.  Being abused, broke, and disabled are not my fault and are not fixable.  Because if they were I would fix them!
    I'm mostly sad, but also mad!

  • SUFFERING SUCKS!

    Saturday, April 27, 2013 | A Painful story

    I refuse to do the self-pity, poor me, dance.  But why is Karma kicking me in the butt quite so much?
    I am having emotional difficulty giving support on CA to a man who is truly remorseful and is trying to make it up to his wife.  And I care about him.  I make suggestions, but am reminded of what X did not do, and I feel sad, miserable!
    I weep!  I weep for might have been!
