Today has been a bad, bad day for me and there is really no reason for it. I haven't lost someone close to me; no one is ill; I have a home and family. Granted, I have lots of problems that are like everyone else's -- not enough money, not getting along with husband like I want to, child not behaving like I want -- but there's nothing to account for this overwhelming feeling of being in the abyss. Yes, I'm on my meds, but all I've done today is sleep and tear up and sit filled with melancholy. Don't know if anyone will have any ideas for me, but I'm searching for something just to get through until tomorrow, which will hopefully be better. Thanks!

Try to sleep some more. Sometimes that is my strategy. If you're in that much pain, better to be snoozing than awake and in misery. I hope you will feel better tomorrow.

So sorry, tiff . . . if it helps any, I have been where you are many times. It will get better, dear. Are you near your period? Pre-menopausal? Hormones can play dirty little games with our minds and bodies.
I hope you feel better soon. Meanwhile, you will get lots of hugs in here.

What a familiar feeling you describe.
I hope you are feeling better really soon.

Hi, Tiff. Do you think there is something about people feeling bad at the same time? My black days of the weekend have lifted, dear, and I didn't have to do a thing but wait. Whatever. This place helps a lot, make no mistake. Let it all out here. How old is your child?

hi, tiff,
such wonderful suggestions and concern from these lovely people..i wish i had something else to add that could help..if the other ideas don't work, perhaps a break from the routine and hubby and child..maybe go take off and see a movie on your own, or go for a walk in a park? or get an awesome book? well, hope you feel better..
hugs,
amy
