Yesterday I had such a bad day. I had headache all day. I'm completely stressed out and worried about what's gonna happen. My finances are really low right now. I'm trying to do things that will help fix that. But nothing seems to be working. And now I think I made it even worse. Don't even know what to do anymore. I feel like my life is out of control and don't know how to stop it. Right now all I want to do is sleep all this away even though I know it doesn't solve anything. But if only for a short time, feeling calm and relaxed is better than what I'm feeling right now.

So many of us can understand, I think. Life these days is really a struggle. They SAY we're in a recession, but that it's "easing." I'd like to know what planet THEY'RE on, cause it's not 'easing' in my neck of the woods. Things are just as hard now as they were 5 years ago, and I wouldn't call what we've had a 'recession' -- it sure felt like a depression to me. The state I live in had a 10% unemployment rate!

It's scary, and you're right -- it would be nice if we could just sleep it away until things got better -- but we can't. I think we're stronger than we give ourselves credit for.

We'll make it thru this - and worry is just interest you pay on a problem you MIGHT have. So why worry? LOL We can't afford to!

Why not join us on the Depression forum? Sounds like you might be depressed right now -- and you'll get plenty of support there. I wish you the very best. God bless and please take care. Hugs, Lee

Hi PC -- Not knowing how you will survive financially is scary. Do you have friends or family who will take you in for a while? I find having a backup plan, even if it is distasteful, comforting.

A while back, I suffered a lot of loss, and I ended up homeless but not truly so, because I was staying with friends, a while here, and a while there. Even friends I did not know I had.

Sometimes I feel so alone, and in the end this turned out to be a great experience, because I found out people are really good. Now I have financial stability and I don't need to reach out to people like I did then, and I was not able to sustain that closeness that felt so good.

So perhaps I lost something more precious than money. I hope something really really good comes out of this for you.
