    • About Me

      Hi Everybody, My name is Nina. I am 22.I am depressed but hopeful Always. My Father is an alcoholic and i am trying to better understand my whole family situation. He left us for another family, Had an affair with a married woman and they have a 4 year old son together now...he is now living with her. The Divorce was finalized in March '09. I have now 2 older brothers ( one of which has Cerebral Palsy and seizures who I help my Ma take care of 24/7) and 3 younger brothers... I am trying so hard to make this life a good one for them now that Dad is Gone that I fear I have lost my role as Big Sis and have subconsiusly stepped into Dad's empty shoes.I think that has changed and somewhat ruined our relationships. Confused about a lot of things and looking for happiness again.I am a very very positive person. Always looking for the better in the situation. However sometimes I just get so sad for the world. Want to find and belive in LOVE again. Right now I have a difficult time understanding why people get married.

      Treatments

      Psychotherapy Somewhat Helpful
      It Was okay. I always knew what they were telling me before they actually told me.So I stopped going.
      Reading Working / Worked
      A Book that i just recently finished...The Way of the Peaceful Warior by Dan Millman has Changed my Life forever. if you happen to see it in the library or the bookstaore...I strongly recommend it.

      My Dad is an Alcoholic and is very sick from his drinking.No longer lives at home. Refusees to go to ReHab.It is difficult to talk with him anymore. Its so sad and frustrating.

      Treatments

      Al-Anon Working / Worked
      I was in 7th grade. Havent been to a meeting since. Helped me to learn more about the disease and its effects on the person.
      Patience Somewhat Helpful
      "patience is a virtue"..however, in this case you cannot wait any longer.. you need to state your peace and let them know how they are effecting your life and the need that you will not stand by them unless they are willing to cooperate and get the help they need to begin living again.
      Talking Working / Worked
      Always helps. Sometimes i feel worse unloading it on a friend though. Even though i know they are there to help, i also feel horrible sometimes for not being strong enough to just deal.
      Writing Working / Worked
      Writing is a hobby of mine that seems to always calm me down and deal with my issues in a creative fashion.
