Loneliness Support Group
Loneliness is an emotional state in which a person experiences a powerful feeling of emptiness and isolation. Loneliness is more than the feeling of wanting company or wanting to do something with another person. Loneliness is a feeling of being cut off, disconnected and alienated from other people. The lonely person may find it difficult or even impossible to have any...
Husband says don't worry about what you can't do anything about. I need emotional support from someone. He doesn't understand that having an anxiety disorder makes this real hard.
She has to choose between hospice and operation. But will probably need ventilator fir shirt while. After was in pain on ventilator so she doesn't want it. Said she cant make decision yet. Social worker called me. I can't influence mom. Or help her decide. She never listened to me and is rigid.
I was stressed out before this with mom. And then blizzard. Have been stressed for many weeks. Need support from someone.

I know this is stupid, but after not being able to find a job after graduation for almost two years, I ended up just taking an online teaching job because I couldn't find anything in my field.

Tomorrow is National Massachusetts Day!Have you ever lived in or visited Massachusetts? If so, tell us what's great about the Bay State!
I'm not a member of this group but wanted see what the other groups were about. But I have had anxiety issues in the past and it does create extra stress than normal in any situation. It's hard to do but the only thing that has helped me is to be able to take a couple of steps back even if it's family and regroup. If I don't then I'm too close and becomes unclear. Past of what your husband is saying is right about not being able to make decisions for others but at the same time there is some worry involved. I at times have to recite the serenity prayer and it actually works. All you can do is offer up your opinion to your mom and then do the best you can to step back. My mother did not listen to me to often either. Never got the exams she needed and wound up with ovarian cancer that could have been avoided if only she would have listened but it was ultimately her choice. If you have siblings maybe they need to get more involved if not already. Anyway take care of your self and try to take a step back for clarity.
Peace, Tim
I am sorry your mother is in the hospital and is faced with such a difficult choice. I know how hard it is to have a parent in the hospital. I am here for you.
My Mom was dizzy as what she called whirly in morning when she tried to sit up in bed....so she called my sister and then 911....
anyway we are here today tomorrow and forever to support you in your times of need...hugs bill
I'm waiting to see how the operation went and what they did during the operation.
