I need to stop this

I hate knowing what I have to do to relieve most of my stress. I just can’t bring myself to do it. I keep thinking everything will turn around on it’s own and it’s not. I know it won’t yet I still hope it would. It won’t so I just have to suck it up and do what I have to do. This is all so new to me and I’m stuck in my ways so that makes it harder to change. I always make excuses like after this or after that I’ll do it and I never do. I mean I know what I have to do and I can’t bring myself to do it. Something as simple as a phone call and I can’t do it. Forget that I should of never been in this position in the first place, but I am and I don’t see a way out. I come here and complain and feel better for a little but I go right back to where I was. I’m just tired of it

well here is what to do:
write down the phone number of the IRS or whatever the peoples name that stress you. and with that number in hand, pick up your phone and dial the number, its got to be done, why torment your self?

I can really relate to what you've said here, even though you were not at all specific. Interestingly enough, I don't feel like I can be specific, either. At least, not on the open forum.

I'm in the same boat, though, and I understand why it's not easy, whatever it is. Oh, it might be SIMPLE, but that definitely does not make it easy.

Sometimes choices and actions that seem simple are the most difficult ones to make.

I hope you'll find something to push you over the threshold. I could use a shove myself.

A Push-
Look around at how fragile the time that we have on this earth is,
Do you have the time to continue to live in the torment.
It is your choice what you Want to do with your time, the choices you do
and dont want to make,

If you sit around a little too long sometimes life takes a shocking turn
and you no longer have the choice to make instead Choices are being
made for you.

There is a saying that I always remember when I take the opportunity to remember,

If you take everyones problems in NYC and put them each in their own
brown bag and you, Don take a day looking through each of those bags
For certain- You would take your own bag and Run,

Just Do It.
Hugs and Positive Light your way.

Don, is this the same call we were discussing in a message previously? You need someone to get a hold of you, and make you MAKE THAT CALL! But in the absence of such a person, you must do this for yourself. Your health should be a priority. Put this task to the top of your to do list. Please.
