I have been reading the book on Mindfulness and Self Compassion and I can't seem to make much sense out of it.
  I have been so exhausted all day for no good reason. I woke up with a headache. I got an irritating phone call from a hefer at the unemployment office yesterday that at first got me upset, then made me angry the more I thought about it. If you are going to deny me unemployment okay, just tell me. Don't drill into me my failures on my last jobs making me feel worse than I already do. Like, I know I am a failure, you don't have to rub it in. I suppose that is just her job. She does not know me and I really don't know her and it is probably not personal. I am sure she is paid to be a bully.  I seem to be thinking of every abusive episode I have endured for the last two years. My self-confidence is gone. Everything that is supposed to help does not help. Medicine does not help. The therapist did not help.    Meanwhile, I am waiting to start a job that I am not sure how much money it will pay. Sooner or later our money supply will start to run low. We can't live on my husband's salary alone. I also would like to go back to school to learn a trade that would be profitable and fulfilling. I feel like I am in limbo and can't figure out what to do. Sorry for the long rant. I just needed to talk to somebody. |

Waterknob, I am sorry the worker at the unemployment office gave you a hard time. Some of them are like that. I do understand the financial strain of low income. I live alone with no one to help with the bills. There are things I do without because I just cannot afford them ( like TV). This may be a time for you and h to discuss ways to NOT spend until you get some stability. I hope this is of some help.

Hi Waterknob, sorry everything is so frustrating and that the worker was so unkind to you.
Rant away if it helps, that's what we're here for. I really, really hope you can find a way forward somehow.
