Guest guest Posted July 2, 2010 Report Share Posted July 2, 2010 Chelsea, You've got a lot of worry hanging on to you. I just want to tell you that if you can find a way to give the worry to your maker, there's only so much you can do to change things sometimes, this is what has saved my sanity. The stress was too much to bear and certainly was the trigger to a lot of my illnesses. Please think of the love you have for your family and let the warmth fill you. You are loved. It's going to take some effort and good planning to find answers and make good decisions so take care of you as best you can and make time for yourself to relax. Maybe learning some new ways to take your mind away from the present time will help. It helps me to visualize in my mind and wake my senses too. I love nature and all the sounds and sights and smells of numerous places. Just for example. Hold those good moments and look for them, don't let the negative things in life take that away from you. I'm glad you came here to share. I hope you keep coming back.

Guest guest Posted July 2, 2010 Report Share Posted July 2, 2010 Dear Chelsea I just want to hug you I'm sorry you and your family are going through this right now. I am sending lots of healing prayers. Also your husband should file for disability he may get it its worth a try. Just have a lawyer to help you. disability lawyers don't get paid if you lose. if you win they get a percentage of your first check. If you ask me its worth it. Anyways I hope things brighten up for you. Hugs Katy >there is no hope. everything is spiraling downward faster and faster. i had the good sense to have my husband hide my gun from me a few days ago, but honestly, i don't have the strength in my hands to pull the trigger anyway. >i am thankful for this list and for the opportunity to vent. i have no one to talk to about any of this so it is good, at least, to write this out in some perverse way. i am also ashamed of myself for feeling sorry for myself. how childish of me. i am sorry. for everything.

Guest guest Posted July 2, 2010 Report Share Posted July 2, 2010 ((((((((((((chelsea)))))))) You have a very full plate. First you need to take care of your own physical and mental health or you will be unable to help anyone. Perhaps if you could find a therapist with experience in pain would be beneficial. there are counselors with nursing degree. A therapist/counselor could help you develop some realistic coping skills. Hope this helps, Tami --- chelsea wrote: > > there is no hope. everything is spiraling downward faster and faster. i had the good sense to have my husband hide my gun from me a few days ago, but honestly, i don't have the strength in my hands to pull the trigger anyway. > > i am terrified and so low i can't see anyway up. there is nothing but the pain. and everyone elses pain, both physical and emotional. and i have nothing to offer, no reserves of strength left to call on.

Guest guest Posted July 3, 2010 Report Share Posted July 3, 2010 Hi Chelsea You are understandably depressed and scared. PLEASE seek a counselor's help, and check every available resource you can think of for help. Apply for food stamps, medical assistance, check out local charities-anything and everything. You just don't know what's out there until you check it out. Check your city, county, state and federal options. Ask friends for suggestions-don't let your pride stop you. I know it's hard to do things when you're depressed, so take it bit my bit. And keep talking to the group.
