It's been a really rough week and I could really use some support right now. I don't know if it's just this time of year, but seems like crap always hits the fan around Christmas time. I'm working towards opening my own business and my dad is extremely unsupportive and doubtful and just destroys my dream and fills me with doubt. Within the past few days it seems like every ex is coming out of the woodwork.... And they're all in relationships and doing well, while I'm over here single and getting slapped in the face with a 2x4 by life! I made a mistake and missed an appointment that was important to my future business. I haven't been as good of a mom as I feel I should be, mostly because I'm just so stressed and so sad right now. I just keep trying to have hope and remember that this too shall pass and that the night is always darker before the dawn, every storm runs out of rain, and all that. But I just feel the pressure building and building and I just want it to alleviate already!!

Hang in there. The holidays won't last forever. Just try to keep your eyes on your goals.

You HAVE been a good mom! You are fighting for their future as much as your own. I wonder if your father gets that. As for your ex's, they're somebody else's problem now. Appearances can be deceiving. Yes, this is a tough time. The holidays. Why isn't our life like all the happy families on TV gathered together with joy? Because our life isn't a TV fantasy. It's reality. And if you take reality one dose at a time, its much easier to deal with. ( except like me when both the car AND the furnace craps out on the same day). You're a great mom, right? Best wishes for next year. Hoping things will come together for you very soon.

Sorry to hear about your car and furnace. I know this can be a very difficult time for a lot of people. Praying that everything works out for you and you have a merry Christmas and a happy new year!

Just wanted to send some hugs.
Is the missed appointment fixable? I'm empathetic to not receiving proper support from a parent, my father specifically. I don't believe he has the proper emotional/empathetic filter necessary to be that supportive parent to me. Took tremendous work in and out of therapy to reach that conclusion and acceptance. I hear you about exes and contacting out of nowhere. Must be something rather special about you, for that to occur. It's a stressful time of year, I myself have felt more melancholic than I'm accustomed to during this time of the year, financial stress adds to the equation, for sure. ![]() Sent from my LGMS323 using Tapatalk |
