Having a really bad day

Hey everyone..
I know this is going to sound like a pitty party but I am really not trying to be in that.. Today has just been really tough.. I have just gotten back to work after being out from surgery for several months.  We are so behind financially that when I look at bills it frightens me to death...  I also have a 17 year old daughter who has just recently moved out with her 25  year old boyfriend and they are living with a couple who have 3 kids, definately not what I wanted for my daughter.... I cant talk this over with my husband, they did not get along part of the reason why she moved out... Before I dealt with or so I thought with a pill.. It was so much easier for me to do.. I find myself really wanting one today so I can deal with things.. I know that is a false sense of security and really messed up thinking but the desire is still there.  Sorry to bring all this heavy stuff on here but I just needed to get it off my chest.

Hey this is all about the heavy stuff with a little bit of light peppered through it.  I can completely relate with you regarding your daughter.  I have two daughters and a son.  Both of my daughters have broken my heart over and over.  Must be a mother/daughter thing.  If you want read my journal today because I brought up issues about mine in it too.  As far as the financial goes we are really struggling right now too, and the more I hear my husband say we have to tighten our belts the more I want to take mine off and slap him with it lol!!!  It's just that it's there, it is what it is, we have to make the most sensable reasonable descisions we can and that's the best we can do.  You are doing great considering your burden, never give up, okay?

I am sorry this is going on. I wrote something similar in my journal yesterday. I know it is a false sense of relief but it would be relief, BUT then I realize, the problems will still be there once the feeling goes away. Hang in there and I hope things get better for you soon. Best of luck to you.

I'm so sorry. I know that family can be a big trigger for some of us. Read Cathy's craving list. It has some really helpful info in it.

Hopefully it will pass soon!
