Just posted a comment on your 4/1 journal. I hope you are having as peaceful and relaxing a weekend as possible.
Probably you should be keeping a journal of some sort, documenting what is happening, even if it is just a few sentences. Just in case, for the future.
I haven't "talked" to you in a while and I found myself wondering how things are going... I hope you are OK and the family is not fighting you so much. How is your mom?
Hi Candy I tried chatting today 12:38 pm my time - maybe we can try later ;-)
I am a caretaker to my mother who has dementia.
I was raised in an alcoholic environment and married an addictive person. I am a people pleaser. I take medication for anxiety and have had some short therapy sessions. Went through an alcoholic awareness program through the addiction foundation. Learned a lot. Have read the twelve steps but haven't worked them all. I'm a Christian and that in itself has given me some healing. I have some anger issues from the past.
. my mother and father seperated when I was ten and had to live with a step father I did not like and was abusive. Couldn't wait to get out of the house. My father was an alcoholic and my mother later became one when she married her third husband and he was an alcoholic too. My mother was not available during those years. . I juggled work and raising four boys for many years single handedly. That is why I think I developed anxiety.
