I feel so overwhelmed right now with everything in my life I just want to pull the covers over my head and stay in bed.
I am so tired of trying
I am so alone
I just want to disapear
I called my T this morning, but I don't believe he can help me.

(((((((SD)))))))
I'm right their with you girlfriend.I'm so sorry you're feeling like this. I wish I could pull you up and make you feel better.
I'm thinking it might help that your T knows how bad you are feeling. Hang on to him with everything he has to offer you. I have to believe this will pass.I've had some much added news to my equation. Can I say this? We just found out on Wed. this week that our 16 year old daughter is pregnant. How's that to add to my plate of already troubled life. There are many things to worry about now, the dad was history as of a few weeks ago. He's a loser. It's a sad situation and we are all so sad about this. I hope it doesn't tip me over. I'm only telling you this because I feel we know about each other's lives to a certain degree. I'm emotonally spent. I saw my T yesterday. that was nice after not seeing her for 4 long weeks. There was so much to tell her that we didn't have time to get into any real solutions. I wanted 2 hours with her, but just getting back to her office after so much time off, her appointment book is filled.
Hugs to you, and thinking about you. This has to pass for both of us.

Okay, do you know what today is?
Today is MY BIRTHDAY slugdoo!
No one can feel that bad on MY BIRTHDAY! I simply will NOT have it.
So get up in honor of me and do something that you love. Hug your kids, eat a bowl of chocolate ice cream, stare at a cloud, take a long bath, buy yourself some flowers, ride a rollercoaster, play ping pong.
You can feel bad again tomorrow (I may join you).
It's my birthday! Enjoy it!
Natie

I feel so bad. When my T called he said he didn't have any opening because he just got back from vacation so next week is booked. He said he would keep me in mind if he gets a cancellation. shame sh*t , differnt call I guess.
Then I told him, didn't give him a chance to say good bye, that I feel so overwhelmed, I am just feel so bad, I just want to pull the covers over my head and hide. He then asked if I had plans this weekend, umm. NO He said that would make me feel better if I did something instead of laying around. I told him that doesn't work anymore. He said hang in there. He will call if he gets an opening.
Thats that I guess
I cried all morning over this, I have cried all day, I am so exhausted from crying, my eyes still tear up, they don't get tired.
Then I saw he called me like 3 hours later on my cell phone and home phone, didn't leave a message. DId he get a cancellation? I don't know why he called and didn't leave a message. I was at the doctors so I didn't get the call.
It is so hard to reach out for help and to feel like I am nothing to that person (i know perjection) just makes me feel worse. I just want to quit therapy. I can't take it anymore. I hate my life.

left a message on why he called and didn't leave a message. Didn't tell him to call me back. But he did anyways.
Well he did have an opening at the last minute, but since I didn't answer, he thought it would have been too late anyways.
He said he had an opening on Mon. morning. I said I would take it.
I just don't know if i can make it that long. I am a mess. I feel so overwhelmed and underloved and uncared about.
I am being a bad mom. Who can be a mom in bed crying all day? But I can't help it. My house is a wreak, I am a wreak. I wish I could just make all my pain go away. I wish there was a pill I could take to sleep the weekend away. I don't know if my T can really help me anyways. I feel so overwhelmed and really have lost all faith in myself and have given up hope.

Hi Ladybug,
Wow, it seems when rain pours, it pours typhoons. That is so upsetting about your daughter, you must be going through a lot of emotions there, I don't know how i would react if that happened to my daughter, she is only 12, but still . I am glad you got to see your T finally. Do you see her next week?
I am trying to hang on like my T said, but I am so down, I really don't know what he can do.
I just don't feel like I am being a good enough mom right now. The house is a mess, and even though I am only a maid and governess to my kids according to my DH, I am not even doing that very well either. I feel so guilty, my kids couldn't wait for me to get done with school back in May, so we could do fun stuff. That is why I took the summer off from school is for my kids, but I haven't done much of anything special and now school starts in a month.
I just think my past is making things seem so overwhelming to deal with that plus the current and the future. I feel like I need my T, but I dont' know what he can do. I don't know what I need from him, I just turned to him for some reason. I am just so tired of everything. Thanks you for posting to me, I know you are going through some major stuff too, and I know how hard it is to do anything, so I certainly appreciate you supporting me.

Hi!
Hope you are getting better.
When I'm feeling that way I read again books like "The Feeling Good Book" or "The Alchemist" (Paulo Cohello)
Try...
