What do you do when it seems world falls apart?

11/18/09 6:45pm

Hey there

 

Can you tell us more about what is currently falling apart in your life?  I wrote about this...in a post called, "How to cope when bad things happen all at once"

 

I hope reading that helps a little...

 

I think it does help to prioritize...which things you have control over...and which things you don't.  let go of the things you have no control over.  It is hard but necessary for your sanity.

 

But...do tell us more because we have no idea what you are dealing with.  You would be surprised...I bet whatever it is someone here has gone through it too.

 

Talk to us...we are here for you.

My fiance relaps on an inhalent and he has some psychosis probs anyway. He was cruel in saying things to me and now he is in jail and I feel that is my fault cause I was only trying to get him help. I used to be a cutter and the things he was doing and saying while high messed with my probs and i cut again. I realized what I did and called the cops to get him help and I also called my therapists at once and she told me the thing I needed was to get him away from me and our children. So I did. He is now willing to go to inpatient he told me a bit ago about that. But i just feel like everything is falling apart. My family isnt talking to me really anymore. All cause I wont do things the way they want me to. I cant live for others, I have to live for myself and my children. Am I wrong for thinking that way?

My fiance relaps and went to jail and could be in big trouble. I feel betrayed by him and he said some mean things to me. Now im taking care of my 4 kids and its scary. It just seems like everything is going wrong and i dont know what to do about it.

Lissa,

I am so sorry about you problems.  I know things aren't great with your family but do you have a girlfriend that you could leave your children with so you can just get away to sort things out. I am going to read Merely me post about when things go wrong to see what she has to say.

 

I don't know if you are the religious type but you can always pray for anwsers and insight. I pray alot to ease my mind and sometimes it helps , sometimes it doesn't.

I could find someone to watch my kids for an hour or two once in a while. But its hard for me cause they are my responsibilty and I hate having to leave them. I feel like I'm being selfish. And at times its hard to find someone who can watch all 4 at same time.

Lissa,

Is there a park near you where your children could play while you sit and relax.  I just think you need a little me time to relax.  Yes they are your responsibility but you also deserve some time to yourself.  If you don't address your needs you are virtually no good to them because you get worn down or angry.

That's true. I usually wait till it's their bedtime and just think, read or write in my journel. But I think on days its nice out we can go on an outing to the park. Thank you.

You are very welcome.  Have a great thanksgiving.

When you feel as though the world is crashing down on you and everything works against you, you move on.  If you really are at rock bottom the only way to move is up, things can only get better.  You also have to be in the right state of mind.  Don't get up in the morning and automatically assume your going to have an offset day.  Try not to focus too much on the bad and try to see the good in everything.  If things are really getting you down and you feel you need help but are unsure how to get help, turn to the bible. It's what I do. Smile
