I think you should write down all the things that are p***ing you off right now because it sounds to me like most of them are pressures from outside your control WHY are you carrying them around?

they're not...i can't make the bills get paid but if i was a better daughter they'd be less stress, which might lead to less fighting...I'm failing school because of ed and because i'm too freaking lazy and if i hadn't taken pills or restricted so much maybe i wouldn't feel so sick

Even if you were better that won't change the stress... it will just take the focus off you and they will find something else to stress about. Having a disorder like this isn't planned, it just grabs you but you have to fight with everything you got and get well with a therapists help and a nutritionist as well as a support group like OA and using this site is a great tool too... Keep journaling all your feelings, even though journals can't talk back it does help to get them out!

I also thought that trying to be the best would make everything better in my family.I am starting to see now though that no matter how hard I tried to be that perfect daughter there was always something that was not making everyone happy.
Please hang in there.Leaving is not going to help you to get through this.I know its hard.If you ever need to talk I'm here.HUGS!

Sorry you are having one of those days. But all those problems have nothing to do with you not being good enough. You are the one who needs help not the one who needs to fix things for others. If you really want to get away from it all and get healthy I wish you would go into a treatment facility. You would get the help you deserve instead of being around your dysfunctional parents. And then you might be able to lead a happy life.

yea, they're not the only ones in my family... if i go, i'm pushing for RR or at least IP at some other place

One of the benefits of IP is that you can distance yourself from your situation and re-focus, learn new coping skills and practice them on strangers. You hang in there and remember that people will always play on your guilt feelings as it makes them feel better. xxx secret is to NOT LET THEM!

    I miss traveling with my husband. Has anyone found a specific site regarding cruising for widow/widowers or any sightseeing trips. Not interested in being with couples and kids,,,I realize a cruise ship will have a portion size of families and couples, but perhaps they also put together a part of the cruise ship for groups of widows/widowers????

    A friend sent this to me..As far as I can see, grief will never truly end.It may become softer overtime, more gentleand some days will feel sharp.But grief will last as long as Love does - ForeverIt's simply the way the absence of your loved onemanifests in your heart. A deep longing accompaniedby the deepest Love some days. The heavy fog mayreturn and the next day, it may recede.Once again, it's...
