I don't think that I can make it through this.

I have been holding on by a thread for a while now. But this this is just too much. I had a dental abcess a few weeks ago that the dentist put me on antibiotics for... now I have some kind of intestinal infection that is contagious and life threatening. I have to go on stronger antibiotics so my insides don't explode and kill me. No I am not exaggerating. And it is contagious.......so now I can't even go near hubby at all. 
To top it all off I just bought a brand new laptop, that is broken. I can send it to another province to get fixed or I can return it. There are no other laptops that are the equivelant that can replace it.  Not anywhere. I have to get my corporate paperwork done in the next 2 wks. And it could take weeks for the computer to come back to me.  Literally to call anywhere to get help or information means being on hold for hours. 
I think that I am going to lose my mind. With everything that is going on with the Corona and with work and with hubby's injury and not having anyone to talk to and really not having much human contact in weeks. 
This is all just too much........way way way too much.

I'm so sorry you're dealing with all this. I can only hope that your luck changes. Things tend to even out. I had some challenges in childhood but had a son who was handsome, top sports player, he had a wonderful childhood and it was fun to be there- so that evened out.

I am so sorry that you are at this point. I know that it seems overwhelming and that you are at your breaking point. Please hang in there. You are important. You are loved. You are heard. I hear you.

thank you. I am really trying, just getting really fed up with everything blowing up. Been off of work since January.....hubby can heal from injury thanks to no medical care. Now the new antibiotics to kill the thing that the antibiotics gave me - I had a reaction to them.......and now I can't take them or I could go deaf...like wow just wow...........I am really feeling like the answer is too just throw in the towel and give up.

Gosh, this may be a bit late coming to you. Take one thing at a time. Pester your doctor until you get the right help. The PC can be exchanged, maybe your husband can do this for you. Everything builds up to the point where I know exactly where you're coming from.
I've been trying to set up a new phone today. It's driving me nuts. I have to forget about it until I feel ready to tackle it again.
Try phoning the helpline at different hours of the day or night.
You'll get there, I know you don't think you will but you will.
