My husband broke his neck and lost his job and we moved across the country to take care of my Mother right after her husband died and there were problems. My mom tried to split us up. My son and husband got into a fight. Christmas was ruined. My mom kicked my husband out. I soon joined him and now my mom won't have a relationship with him, only me. And she scares me. She shook me and bared her teeth at me. She dropped me off at er and said she was done with me to the nurses.
I was hospitalized with psychotic mania and am now depressed. We are living in a small apt 20mins from my mom with no relationship to her. We have met a few people through a church. My husband is wondering if we should move back across the country and try to get his old job back as my mother made us repay a loan that she said we could always keep until she got mad we got back together and took it. Now we live in a little town with not a lot of work. And our money is running out. And I am still too unstable to work. My husband is on private disability but we don't know how long that will last. He is also bipolar and we are both alcoholics. I am sober. He has relapsed. |

I don't know what to say?...
you moved my usually immovable heart however! what damages my senses is this ridiculous philosophy that just seems to be so abundantly necessary these days!... "it is what it is".... I wish your "is" wasn't "this"....'that' you are going through. I feel for you dm.

Before I would spend the money to move again, I would make sure I had a job to go to. I am on private long term disability also. My status is re-evaluated every 2 years but if it is approved then I could possibly stay on it until I reach the age for eligibility for full social security retirement. Their thought is that once you reach retirement age you are no longer disabled from work as you are now retired. They did require me to apply for social security disability after I was on it for a year. When I was approved the amount they paid me was reduced by the amount SSDI paid me. So, my income stayed the same even though it now came from two different places.
