The last couple of days my anxiety has been climbing. Today I am almost at panic.. I can not focus, my insides are jumpy . I have also visited negativity land several times. I know this is only temporary but I can not wait till bedtime when I can go to sleep and pray that tomorrow will be better. I do not know what is bothering me. I have a lot of situations in my life that I have to accept the way it is. I see a therapist and he says my anxiety comes from some of the issues that I am repressing and can't do anything about them example my son is gay and is living with another young man. I have had 2 hip replacements in the last 5 months. I have a verbally abusive mother and I have cut ties with her and she doesnot let me talk to my father and I saw my father in the grocery store and he looks so old and run down. I am on meds.
Thanks for listening.

You have a great deal going on and so understandable as to why you are having so much anxiety. The only thing I can suggest is to take one thing at a time and not to try and deal with everything all at once. Does your father not have any say in whether or not you speak to him? Going through both physical AND emotional pain at the same time is hard for anyone. Please keep talking about it. Sometimes just writing things down makes all the difference. Hugs GB

Thanks GrammyBear. My father does not have any say in talking to me. When I have called their house and mom answers and I ask to speak to dad, she says I can't talk to him. It has been a difficult situation for many years and I have seen many therapists.
Thanks again GB

Are you able to lay in wait for dad in the supermarket, and then kidnap him? He's clearly an abused husband, too.

Maybe he can come live with you. But at any rate, I think you need to talk to someone at a refuge somewhere. Find out how abused spouses think, and find out how to save dad.

As to your son, I think this next generation are all multi/omni/alternate sexual now anyway. I think as the world fills up people are letting go of the ancient ways of living that only worked when you weren't overpopulated, and were trying to create increased population to feed you in your old age. We're maxing out now; anyone who's an alternate gender is quite possibly responding to nature. For example once a population of rats gets to a high enough point in an enclosure, they stop procreating as well.

And if you're a christian: just remember God said 'thou shalt not eat shellfish'. I think if being gay were worse than eating shellfish, God would've put something in writing. :D
