I certainly don't care about anything now....

I am so hurt and sad that I don't know what to do...

My mother gave my Baby Kitty away to her therapist!!!!!!!!!!

I loved my BabyKitty...like my own child and now she's gone!....

I gave BabyKitty to my mom as a gift and for companionship...and she turns around and gives her away to her therapist!!!!!....

And she had the nerve to say I never give her anything!!!!!!

GOD....I never forget when I was about ten...went to the Galleria with my cousins and bought her a photo album for Christmas....when she opened it she was like "What is this" I don't need a photo album!!!" ...I was like ...????? I haven't been ever to give her anything else since out of fear of rejection....

and now she does this? GOD...this hurts so much...I miss my kitty so much!!!!

:/ I'm at least glad that she gave the kitty to her therapist rather than a shelter or worse. Maybe she doesn't realize how much the photo album and kitty meant to you? Either way, I'm sorry that your kitty was given away. That sounds like a really hard situation to be in.

you are in a verypainfull situation but i think if you start relizing your mother isent going to change and ou cant make her she has to want to change you need to look after your self first ......................dont spent so much of your time trying to please her insted spend it on workng on your self i know that sounds hard now but it will help you in the end .................you need to stir clear of negative things and people in your life if you can avoied them ................................i will keep you in my prayers ......................god bless

I can understand your disappointment and hurt. Please remember to put yourself first. It is hard to do, I know. I struggle with this every day. It may help to remind yourself that we cannot control other people's reactions, no matter how much we want to be able to.
As a practical approach, you may want to donate to your favorite charity in your mother's name. This will make you feel good, and it will do good for the community.

Sheesh...moms can be so thick at times.

But, please stop saying you don't care about anything. You do, hence your pain and unease. You're using the wrong words. And this might distract you from the right words, the real problem. Maybe "you're tired", "defeated"? Maybe "overwhelmed"? From the right words, you can start to look at the root of those feelins, and the root of those....until you recognise that simplistic, raw, original cause that governs the "defeatism". The one thing that, if healed and nurtured, will fix the problems it causes by default.

How's that for a 6:30am thought? :p

that's pretty good for a 6:30 am thought Cypressmoon...really is...

I tried to post this earlier but I accidently closed my browser before posting...

I just don't know...I am so sad and hurt by the repeated crap that life keeps throwing at me!!!

I am angry so angry...and all the people I love most and at me!!!

I used to have great thoughts like yours at 6:30 am when I was alive back then...but now..I have nothing...nothing but pain...hurt ...and sadness...

and I don't like talking about it and i don't like thinking about it...cause it just makes it worse...

check out my new post about my day today and maybe you'll understand a little more...

thanks again

I will check it out.

And...it makes it worse because you have to think about that pain to work through to the other side, when you heal. But, it's ALL FOR YOU AND YOU DESERVE THAT ATTENTION.

Also, nothing wrong with a vacation to find yourself again.

    I'm feeling down,, and got alot on my mind right now.  I got grief going on, on top my depression and anxiety and now I got to worry about somewhere to live since I can't afford living here since my mom passed.  So many bad things have happened since my mom passed.  One thing after another it seems.  Yesterday our fence fell from a storm that hit, had to call someone to prop it up.  Thank...
