Other People

Sunflower painter, i agree with davit, i have a few family people in my life that i can not be around, because of how they treat me, i gave them an option, and now i don't see them much, but it was their choice, I see them on my terms, if they can't abide by my terms then i won't see them, no one should  be allowed to disrepect you.    jaybe

feeling anxiety over past

Hi all, I have been doing really good, but this morn woke up to almost a doom kinda feeling, I lost a 2 1/2 yr.old daughter back in 1991 around this time, I am feeling so gloomy and upset, I always miss her, but now the sadness and hurt just seems to be overwhelming . i am very emotional and just have no energy, want to hibernate, but I know i can't , have young children to care for, anyone have some advice to get myself together again   jaybe

feeling anxiety over past

Thanks Everyone for all the encouragement and comforting words!  Ashley, I don't know what to do at times, I just feel lost!   Sorry i haven't been on here for awhile, having other issues go on in my life, I feel like just gettin deeper stuck in this hole, was going to go to a ladies' night out affair tonight and lookin forward to it , since I don't get time to myself ever, but I don't think i can go now, I have no family or friends around, trying to stay positive for my kids , but it is becoming impossible when the future is now looking dark.just needed to vent    jaybe

I Think I am in Trouble

Debora,   hi  I can empathize with you, I also have a husband who dosen't understand, but Davits' advice is so true.  You need to do CBT for yourself.  It took me a long while to get it.  I keep my husband out anything involved with my panic/anxiety disorder , it is better that way and keeps anxiety level manageable.   jaybe

I Think I am in Trouble

Debora,    I have a teenage daughter and you are so right, kids can pick up that,my daughter says mean things to me also and it is tough to tune out .  You are sounding positive and that is great, that is most important, I had days that i would be so   stressed out that would lead to depression, but thankfully them days are few.  I know we can overcome this!  One day at a time I find is the best way.  jaybe
