Thanks for the responses guys, @Nammu - I am definitely calling the pdoc - you've known me for years and all I've gone through; things have gotten so much better, but they can get real bad real fast if I don't watch it. Thanks for reminding me of that, I love you.

@Rosi700 - so sorry you're struggling, self-blame IS the worst - my diabetic medications did mess with the Lithium when I was on it, kind of threw me off balance for a while, so you may be on to something there - try to reach out to your doctor and see what they say. You know I love routines and they make everything better! Hope you get into some soon

@raspberrytorte - I know how hard it is with a toxic family member - I have distanced myself from most of my family over the years, I can understand your reaction to your mom reaching out now. It's kind of how I felt about my ex mother-in-law always calling me and telling me about my ex, it would always leave me distraught and disturbed after talking to her. I blocked her and I feel a lot better, not telling you to block your own mom, but you may have to cut communication if you feel that bad about it, and your hubby notices.

Trying to get some work done today - I did manage 5 1/2 hours sleep - much better than 3 but still bad. I hope everyone has a great Monday!

raspberry, I feel for you. I'm not sure about the legal end of your situation at all, but I hadn't talked to my dad in a while when he died (no one I kept in contact with had) and I didn't even find out until I headed there and the place was all fked up and some dude he used with told me what happened. Quite a relief really. I know for me it was good to detach as much physically, mentally, and emotionally as possible the earlier the better.

Got some sleep but feel like I’m drunk. Ahh. Fudge. Be good if pdoc was today, he’d see what’s wrong, no need to say a word.

Hi and THANKS for caring! I feel so down that it feels impossible to describe. Kids grown up, not living close to me. I have struggled with SI thoughts for weeks now, and only see vague hopes for my future.

But I got an idea! I think it is possible to make some sort of a map where I map what I want at different areas in my life. What is possible and what is not possible? How often is it possible for my family to visit me. If it is not possible for them to see me more often, may be I have to move to feel that I have a value.

The word value is the important on here. One get kids, raise them and so one day they are out of the nest to work with attractive jobs of their own interest while their mother sits alone as an used and drained potato. (If you ever have seen a mother-potato) it has scrumped into almost nothing in the earth, when new good potatoes from the mother plant are "blooming!
