I reached a breaking point today. I have been fighting with the temp co/unemployment for several days now because they are being A$$holes. I still don't know if it has gone through. Then, today, my landlord emailed me and told me that I still owed $500 for June. I knew that I have to pay back 275.00 from using it to cover half of my rent before. But I also KNOW thT I paid my June rent. I lost it. I cried HARD. I am not a crier, so for me to feel this bad, it is very bad. Today was trash day, and I spent most of the day throwing out half of what I own. I don't want anything around me. I would be happy with my tv, bed and a bookshelf. I just went crazy. I threw soo much crap out. And I'm not done. I guess I just don't give a crap anymore. I don't own anything of value anyway. I am a pathetic loser.

First off please don't negate yourself by calling yourself a pathetic loser. I know how that feels and honestly it will just make it worse

I'm sorry things seem to be falling apart. I'm not a crier either so I know it means a lot when those tears roll

I hope your life starts to improve soon

(((hugs)))

what ruby said 'you are not a loser'... if you really must get rid of your stuff why not have a sale and raise some money at the same time. it might even be fun. just an idea. hugs

TC, these ladies are right. You arent helping yourself or the situation by referring to yourself with such derogatory names. I too have been guilty of being my biggest bully but you have to learn to believe in yourself and build yourself up. Because in the end we are all we got. You are no loser. Just remember we are all here for you. Hugs.

TC I'm sorry you are having such a rough go....

You are anything but a loser you are a normal person fighting through the ravages of the "down turn" which effects middle age single women the worst lets be honest.

It also effects people who are without a career which is me and you hon....find your way by doing things that make you feel good.

Grab the bubble wrap and go look at some birds...any chance you can get to the gym?

Tc, remember to take things one day at a time, one thing at a time, one hour at a time. I've certainly been overwhelmed and hassled at times in my life and you have to fight hard for that positivity. It's not going to come easily and like the other very caring ladies here have expressed, negative self talk will make you feel worse! I hope you can focus on that one small thing a day to get you through. The gym,enjoying nature, things to help ease the negativity. (((Hugs))))

    I've been on high dose prednisone for pneumonia, and now I am slowly weaning. But lots of symptoms I don't like having, plus overeating has put at least 10 lbs on me. The food is "loud" as the GLP-1 users refer to it.Also pressured speech. Which comes out in my posts. Sorry I posted so much. I just need an outlet for my agitated and irritable brain. Just scroll on by my posts, if they are too...
