    I need to vent before I can give info about my day yesterday

    My son

    really makes my blood boil - I have just shouted at him big time and he just pushed me over which made me break something. Of course he says I broke it.

    His messy rooms and not clearing them - we want the house cleared before we put it on the market. He is a !!!!!!.

    Being slow about putting up the lights - I know the weather has been bad but he didn't think to put them up when the weather was nice last week, no his party had to come before our pleasure (for all of ours)

    His coming in late which disturb me which means I get overtired when I am disturbed. That is why I can't sleep at night

    He is hanging around with drop outs

    He has squandered his (our hard earned savings).

    He left the wire of the Christmas lites all dangerous and refused to do anything about it.

    Heylo again guys :)
    I've just had a big, emotional talk with OH (could call it a row really) and he said something that I needed him to say to help me move on with my life.
    One thing I've been worrying about, is that by leaving, I'll make him miserable. He told me today that I make him miserable now. So, I can't really upset him anymore, so I don't need to feel guilty about that.
    I've decided to spend a week or so at my Parents house - I need space away from him to clear my head and allow myself to be a little happier.
    The plan moves forward.
    I am leaving him. Will get on to the IB people and sort that out.
    I will carry on with my treatment even though OH doesn't want me to.
    I will talk about my problems, even though he tells me not to.
    I will be happy.
    I've had a few very low days lately, and I'm feeling a little annoyed with the lack of help I've recieved, not only from my GP, but from other sources (Gave up waiting at A&E as I didn't get to see anyone). But, I'll carry on with it - need to go back to the doctors tomorrow to get more tablets as I'll be away over xmas.
    I'm feeling okay now, I'm finally feeling 'safe' again, which is a tremendous relief, most of the thoughts and urges are past, so I feel that I can be back around you guys again.
    I'm sorry for going, I hope you understand that I did it for your own sakes, and I hope no one worried - but its not a good idea for me to be posting when I'm in that danger zone.
    I'm still a little unhappy, I'm still a little low, but I'm feeling hopeful. I know what needs to be done, I've just got to do it!
    I'm probably heading back up north on Monday, and I'm unlikely to be online very much, but I will be thinking of you all, and happy xmas to those who are having xmas, and just have a good day on that day to all of you who aren't celebrating this year. But anyways, I'm here till I leave, so I'll say this all again.
    I also want to take this opportunity to say a huge Thank You to everyone who's helped me through this time, its been a very upsetting, very stressful and very scary time, and its helped me more than I can describe knowing that I'm not alone. I'm very happy that I don't have to walk this road alone any more :)
    Thats that, I will shut up now.
    Oh, and one last thing - today is my 20th day without smoking or drinking!

    Time he was standing on his own two feet by now!
    Kick his a** out the door!

    How did your trip go?
    But first, the most asked question:

    Q "Is anything worn under your kilt???"

    A "No. Everything is in perfect working order Thank You!!."

    Well done on day 20 feeling good.

    Bet DH does not realise that he has "shot himself in the foot" by saying you make him miserable now!

    As you are in a Catch 22 situation then you might as well please yourself and do whatever it takes to get yourself better.

    Alarm bells rang for a lot of us when you said he did not want you to take medication, see doctor, see therapist, have counselling etc.

    His answer to everything seemed to be no.

    Have a good Christmas and the very best of luck.

    Thank you Elona :)

    I've realised that I don't have to understand OH's behaviour, and there doesn't have to be any blame in this.
    The long and short of it is that he and I are both unhappy together, and have been for a long time. Its best if we both move on.

    I fully agree

    but my soft as sh*te husband and mother won't back me!

    I am the bad guy for wanting to get him on track.

    I have to cook their effing meals and smile and be nice.

    I have tried that approach and they walk over me

    I can't take it any more

    I am so tired after the long drive and my family's sh*te:(

    The trip yesterday

    Felt tired because of lack of sleep but felt good for getting out.

    The wind and rain was strong and the A1 and A68 got blocked by fallen lorries and accidents.

    Thankfully the A19 and A1 coast road was OK coming back but felt nervous of the winds.

    My MIL has lost feeling in her right arm and is scared of losing her independence like driving. She will learn to write and stuff with her left hand.

    There were plenty of worse cases in the ward but she is obviously scared.

    We all live a long way and it is a long drive for both sons to drive. He has friends but not sure who would help her practically, but she is fiercely independent.

    Hiya Tiff,

    Just thought I'd say hello - we aren't usually around at the same time.
    I'm chucking myself into sorting out my music collection. Could take days.

    I'm ok (in denial) today.
    I hope you are through your bad few days.

    xx

    EDIT: Missed you d'oh!
    EDIT (Again): Oh you're back!
    It will be worth it when you find the music you want far quicker.

    You need a day off from thinking about it - so you are not in denial really.

    Bug hugs xx
