Having a difficult Thanksgiving

By Englishteapot29 Thursday, November 26, 2009

I know today is Thanksgiving and it's suppose to be the day to relax and celebrated the day with your family and be thankful for the things we do have. Today is the day that I'm going through a difficult time, feeling very depressed and angry.

 

My boyfriend confessed of cheating on me few weeks ago and he broke up with me on top of things. I'm living with him til I get my own place and I gave up my apartment for him. He's visiting his new girlfriend for Thanksgiving and it has made me very upset and jealous. They both know that I'm mentally ill and they both don't know what's it's like to live with this.

 

They both have been mentally abusive as well on top of things, he's been pressuring me to apply for low income apartments as I really don't need it. When I give her evil looks she goes back and tells my ex and the fingers get pointed at me. Don't worry they will get there bad karma! that girl already got a nail in her tire but I didn't put it in her tire as I don't go to there level as I'm not immature.

 

That's ok because the bad karma is just beginning for that girl. She's such a big hypocrite, she's going to school to be an EMT and they are suppose to help people not hurt them, she's the opposite.

 

I've been wondering if mental abuse is against the law? he does it alot always putting me down I can't take no more. I can't wait to move out and I will be self isolating as well thanks to them. I can't stand people like that. I guess I have to be around people that are mentally ill like myself and not normal people that is pretty sad there there is so much stigmatism out there.

 

 

 

 

 

 

I've been so stressed out over medical and finding a place to live

Hello - sorry you're having a bad time right now.  I'm sure it must be hard to still be living with your boyfriend while all this is going on.  Maybe, in time, you can look at this as a chance for a new start and the end of a bad relationship.  Are you getting any help for your depression?  If not, you might want to consider it.  It's hard to deal with alone.  I don't know what else to say right now, just that I empathize and hope you can soon get your own place and maybe meet some new people.  It is sad that it's very hard to share difficulties with mental illness with people who haven't experienced it - that's why there are therapists, because nobody else really wants to hear about it.  They probably don't, either, but at least they're getting paid to do it!  Hope you can hang in there and please write again and let us know how you're doing.
