Update: he had a hernia that was strangling his bowel. They fixed it and he will be fine. But it will be a four day stay and a lengthy recovery. Last night my mother was already asking me if I could come over and change her sheets, take out the trash etc. I told her I could barely take care of my own crap because of the pain I am in with my back. She got pissed off. She tried to “remind” me of EVERYTHING she did for me in 2007 when I had cancer and had 2 MAJOR abdominal surgeries. Her “EVERYTHING” consisted of coming by my house on her way to work for 20 minutes everyday. Also, before I was discharged from the hospital during my first major surgery, she told me I could come over and stay with her after I got out of the hospital so she could “take care of me”. The NIGHT before I was discharged, she called to tell me that I couldn’t come because HER back went out. So...karma is a beotch. So also, her husband is a complete ass**** to me. He makes fun of me, puts me down every chance he can. He makes me feel extremely unwelcome whenever I do come to their house (which is not very often BECAUSE of this). So, I guess I should just tell her that I cannot help HER.
IM SORRY if I am posting this and venting. I a REALLY struggling mentally (going through withdrawals from two psych meds) and physically due to this pain that I am in. I don’t know where else to turn. Any advice or positive feedback would be SO appreciated. THANK YOY for listening!!

Due to my increased paranoia, anxiety, and a panic attack over the weekend, my psychiatrist has put me back in a full dose of Zyprexa until further notice. Every time I think I'm getting ahead something happens and it's back to square one. I knew he was gonna do this but I can't help feeling disappointed. It is what it is.

You can suggest that her or her husband's doctor refer them to a social worker....xo
You sick, your responsibility is to you, you've more than enough on your plate...on your own.
Boundaries hard to do, and is a beautiful word
