Do you ever feel

[Guest guest]

like your entire life you have been surrounded by nuts your entire life? I feel

like I've been caretaking for some dysfunctional person my entire life. And I'm

sick of it. Are there really this many people who can't function? Or, only a

few of us willing to help those who are?

Or, is it just me that seems to keep running into the same thing. My father was

mentally ill after a brain tumor. My mother severely borderline. My brother

and sister abusive narcissists. Here I am taking care of my now dementied,

borderline mother

So, of course, I felt perfectly " normal " to marry a man with bpd and bipolar.

And ...divorce...of course.

I'd like to for once in my life, feel like there is someone normal around to

talk to. Someone one supportive in my life. Not, just me here shoring everyone

else up.

I'm really, really tired of it. And have begun to wonder if life has anything

else to offer me. And why there are some of us that seem to be dumped on.

Okay, so I'm in a bad mood. But, really. Normalcy is needed now and then.
