I lost my mum 6 years ago and had to do everything for the burial, service etc.
Left living with my needy sister who has learning difficulties though she's 35 now and not a stoopid as she wouold have people think. Other half is messed up himself and likes to drink too much. I;m completely lost and often wonder whether its actually worth carrying on. I do have a lot of friends but i cannot tell them everything as i just can#t bear the looks of judgement to my other half and the half sincere sympathy from them as they're selfish themselves sometimes and take me for granted. I help people too much and feel that i just get taken for granted. I kind of want to split up with my other half after 6 years but he saved my life when i wanted to follow mum to the grave. I need to save him but he can only save himself. Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhh |

Hi LilyPo, welcome to PsychCentral. There's lots of other people here from the UK and most everyone here expresses feeling a bit lost and lonely at some point.
Can you see a counselor or anything, talk over the problems with your sister and husband with someone impartial that isn't a friend or doesn't want or need anything from you? You don't need to save your husband, especially if he doesn't agree and is unwilling to be saved. He could help save you because you wanted saving.

welcome to PC LilyPo...
this place really helped me when i was feeling lonely... i've been around drinkers the majority of my life... how is his health? is there a doctor involved? soory to hear that you've lost your mom... happy to hear you didn't follow her to he grave... i believe we've each been given a life for a purpose... i care for my own handicapped mom and at times i think that isall i am heere for, that god put me here for that reason and in truth, in my more grateful moments... i humbly accept that sometimes my life doesn't seem to be about me ... but i say.. it's what God wants... and there are the days i know she won't always be here... it's necessary that a part of me lives on to begin again that day... i have to have a life seperate from her and her needs... i've had to contemplate being a 44 year old man still so connected to my mom... but it's the plan... what are your hobbies and interests? |
