Today's been a stressful day, but just inside of OC. My "real" life went fine, work was fine, home was fine. "OC" was breaking down inside. I ended up calling my doctor today and managed to score an appointment tomorrow morning for a med check. I think my anti-depressants are taking a dump on me. I also FINALLY made the phone call to that counselor today.
I cn't take much more I tell you.
I woke up, first thing on my mind, was wondering if my friend here in town still had her condo for rent. I swear that was the very first thought in my head this morning.
You all have been telling me, that when it gets bad enough, when I hit the bottom, I'll get myself out of this mess. I think you may be right. I'm ready to bolt tonight. I mean, pack up my kids and just run far far away. I want out. I want to be free of this. I want to be who I really am.
I don't know why I have to do everything the hard way. I get like this, then hubby does something nice (because he is basically a nice guy) and I feel horrible. I feel like a loser. I feel like I'm letting everyone in my life down by even considering what I'm considreing. How can this be?
I am so unhappy. I feel so badly. I want to feel better, but I really think I need a med adjustment as well. I need some guidance about what I want to do. I really appreciate everyone reading this, it helps me so much to know you are all out there.
I never realized coming out could be this hard, or cause me this much pain. I never reaized you get to the point you can really no longer stand it. I'm afraidn for my kids here in MT. Maybe I need to leave. To get them out of here, I don't want them to have pain that is caused by me, and I can see that happening in this narrow minded place (OK, semi narrow minded anyway). I don't know what the custody laws or the normal rulings are for custody here. I know he will fight me hard. So, I think it's best to just break up, and leave my personal life out of the mix.
How am I ever going to do this, to survive it? What about my poor little babies? I realized this week, I don't want a pet, simply because I don't want to figure out where the pet is going to have to live.
OK, enough of my pity party...
Peace,
OC
OC - Get your meds leveled out. Then think - and know people are here for you, k?
ReplyDeleteBig virtual hugs coming your way.
ReplyDeleteAnd I echo Lori's advice.
Things have a way of working themselves out. 2009 will be your year, OC!
ReplyDeleteyes and yes -- echo what has already been said. get the meds, see the counselor. I'd frankly keep my cards close you know...you don't have to come out to get a divorce and I'd be thinking about doing what most insured keeping custody of my children.
