What to do?

Keep going.

Take a break and do a few phone sessions when you are away helping your mother.

Enjoy the weddings and your parents while you have them.

Breathe.

Peace

keep going ... hmm .. thinking keep going where ...cuz i feel like i am going to go crazy..
just trying to keep it together - be strong ...be positive ..
and inside i am totally opposite .. afraid for the day it all comes out and the unending tears begin..how do you prepare .. digest all these things or do you?
my youngest going to play in the sand overseas is so overwhelming that his marriage 4 weeks before that time is taking presedence
i dont have time to be happy then next be traumatized ..
my T is leaving in July - having to re establish another ..
those are just a few things .. so much juggling .. i dont have enough limbs to juggle anymore .. speaking emotionally.
i have to live my life and learn to cope somehow.
just wish i knew how.
i cant even get to my issues with all these things going on.
how strong can one person get?sheesh

Is this really a ploy for some admiration? That's what it sounds like to me, since all your issues are very workable. People get sick, people lose their jobs, things change, life goes on. If you confront it as best you can, you'll do fine, and may even end up learning some things. If any of us focused on all the bad things in our lives, we could construct a similar list. I know I could. If you're really looking to overcome this and are sincerely stressed out, just do your best, pay attention, and focus on some other parts of your life that aren't all bad.

Losing your T and son simultaneously?

That IS too much to process. I simply cannot imagine the kind of pain you are experiencing. Is T helping you process this? Can T help you find a new T to work through these feelings with? It sounds to me like you have too much going on to be without support.

Peace

MissCharlotte ~ thank you for your replies ~ these are stressful times for me and having major depression along with a list of other things - processing these things is a struggle. Simple things to some become extremly difficult for me. i am hoping to get a new T soon .
Thanks again for your replies
