    Well, my busy day is about to start :o

    I can't really afford that Teddy Bear today :( Just have to hope they still have some next Monday, but any present I hope she'll like. It's meant to be the thought, and she said that herself, but then I'm not sure anything out of her mouth is true these days :confused:

    I might force myself to buy that Teddy Bear if only 1 or 2 left :confused: I can survive until next Monday....

    aww CC.. what's happened? *huggs*
    I don't know if you have read my earlier thread about my son spending his long term savings and how my family undermine me.

    We are going to sell the house in the new year and I want to leave them. I have felt bullied by them for years.

    I get given advice to discipline our son but I get undermined by my husband and mother. I feel so ineffective and useless and my confidence isn't that good. I am very argumentative with people who are inefficient (going out gets me out of the [STRIKE]prison/workhouse [/STRIKE]home but OK with people who are nice.

    I overeat and find ways to escape them to cope but I am not having a life. I can't work or do much except go on the computer and watch TV.

    I also feel some people on this thread aren't talking to me
    An average day in my life:hello: :eek::mad: :coffee::coffee::coffee::T :o :rotfl: :rotfl: :p :eek::mad: :beer:
    I am no expert in property but have lived in many types of homes, in many locations and can only talk from experience.

    Is your son spoiled by your mother/his grandmother? What about your husband? Does he spoil him, or just lacks discipline?

  • I did see what you said about your son and the money... just I didn't really have anything helpful to say so I didn't say anything :/ sorry if that upset you, I didn't mean it to.

    Not sure what to say about you feeling bullied, I know you've talked to them about it before and got nowhere, so I think you're the only person who can decide if you really do need to go or if things are salvageable. I know you're worried about how you'll manage to get somewhere else to live etc if you leave when the house is sold but you know what? You will find a way.. I left my hubby with the clothes we stood up in, £10 in my purse and 2 children under 5. We did eventually get help from the courts and local authority but initially it was a struggle, we even slept in the car a few nights :)

    I can understand the over eating.. I tend to be the same.. but I've got a history of Eating disorders, been bulimic, anorexic and all sorts in between.. so I don't think I'll ever have a normal relationship with food :/ I used to easily go for 2-3 weeks without food and then have a massive blow out and eat everything that's not nailed down but I'm having to resist the urge to do that because at one point I was as low as 5 stone, other times I've been over 20 stone.. I'm somewhere in the middle now.. I could afford to lose a couple of stone but I darent start the dieting thing again in case it triggers bad habits again :/

    I'm sorry you feel ignored by some people on this thread, I'm sure that's not the case, it's just that sometimes there's so much activity here that it's hard to keep up and sometimes people do get overlooked.. I've felt it a bit myself at times and I'm sure others have too.

    You're not alone.. we're all in this together and we'll drag each other kicking and screaming thru until we all feel better :huggs:

    CCStar I can imagine it's very draining when you're trying to discipline your son but your efforts are constantly undermined. But sounds like you're organised for the day ahead - thinning out books etc, and dinner pre-cooked. Keep focused on that would be what I'd do. The stuff you want to keep - can you keep it in boxes till you do move? Sx
