Couch 92 Found my shoe

I know that you have talked about it before . I just wished he had not gone this route . if he has to I hope he can be responsible. one of the problems is he cant afford it . and he has a hard enough time paying his bills with his limited income . now I feel I am funding his habit instead of helping with bills

I think many people can use it without problem, but for certain people, it can really become a psychological addiction unfortunately. Does your son know his father's history with it? Might be worth telling him that story, not accusatorily or anything, but just as a concern as addictive tendencies do seem to run familial.

My husband has had those talks with our sons because his father and grandfather and at least one brother were all alcoholics. He talked to the boys about addiction and the need to take care because with that family history, the odds are that addiction could be a problem for them and they need to be aware of that proactively. Our middle son definitely could have those tendencies and it is important that he be aware of that danger.

That's about all you can do, but perhaps your son will at least take that into consideration when monitoring his own use of substances and/or behaviors that could result in addictive tendencies.

yes he knows all to well and he has had serious issues with him over it and the way his sisters are affected by it

Had a hellish session with T today. Tryinf to shut my mind off and sleep. T was great but the content was painful and awful.

Also found out I qualify for unlimited sessions for the year. I'm glad that burden has been lifted.

Now if only I could get this emotional pain to stop presenting as physical and allow me to sleep that'd be great.

I hurt. All over. All around.

The feels and memories suck.

Had a series of little breakdowns at my youngest birthday party. The first cake i made was a disaster and the second one was an oatmeal tea cake that i had make due to having no money. I kept crying at the drop of a hat. Last night i went to bed early really early as i was so sick of myself i just wanted to sleep so time passed quicker. Its probably what i will do tonight too. I just wanted something to go right. My ex did point out that no one was complaining.

I think it is huge that he trusts you enough to share this information. Many, MANY of my friends in college smoked pot. All are doing well now in professional jobs. This will likely end up not being a big deal. He is young.

I told him it made me sad and he now said he wishes he had just lied to me . I told him to never do that etc.. and that I just worry and that I know he can make his own choices etc... I don't ever want him to lie about anything . I just see what it did to his farther . I smoked and did a lot worse and I no longer do any of that . but look at me

Yes, look at you! You are continually bettering yourself. You continue to make progress in your life. You create beautiful things and teach others to do so as well. You are a kind, supportive friend who reaches out to others when they feel worthless and horrible. Look at you, Friend! You are awesome! Have faith in your son and in yourself. Tell him how you are just positive he is fundamentally a good, strong, intelligent person and he will figure all this out.

right back at you girl . JUST SAYING

I hope your day is better now.

Whoa, the couch was all the way onto the second page!

.... and now their is the question about the other shoe!

Today is just getting worse and worse. Sorry, I'm such a Debbie Downer. The feels suck.

I don't like this person I am today.

I was nervous something got blowtorched or water ballooned and the whole couch went poof!

No need to apologize, it happens to plenty of us!

Everyone has fun until someone puts an eye out.

Cheerful sayings from my family.

Eh. Happens...

Thanks i am. I think it was a combination of the cake disaster and having 6 teenage girls running round the house. All the noise unsettled me. Anyway it a new day today ill see what i can make of it.

Oh its down the back of the sideboard never to return.

Anyone else have advertising material in their inbox?

I'm nervous about going home after work today. My partner and I had a fight last night. I can see where things went wrong and possibly triggered her stuff but I don't agree with how she reacted and a lot of what she said to me were hurtful and over the top.

Today she texted me and said she's running errands after work, etc. Basically avoiding me at dinner time. (We almost always eat dinner together). I feel on edge.

I've asked her if we needed to talk but she didn't respond. So I'm going to try and focus on my own self-care and events I have planned anyway and not let this eat me up and ruin an evening I had scheduled for some good me time.

Wish me luck.

Hello! I cant be doing with this cool whip stuff, does it stain? Is it dairy based? Im off to google

Once when I was vegan my sister assured me that since Cool Whip doesn't contain any actual food, it's vegan.

Cool whip was originally all chemical. Yech! Now it does have light cream and skim milk. I feel a little bit sick now.
