I feel Antsy….nervous like I’m on edge and can’t seem to stop it. I just learned it’s called Anxiety. I have heard this word so many many many times, but never really related until now. My son managed to get me some xanax from his sister in law but for two days I took it, NOTHING happened. Didn’t even relax me or calm me down. In fact it just got worst.
I, then decided, after quitting the use of a herbal substance, to go back to it and presto, calm and clear headed. What really gets to me is this stuff is illegal and yet, it is the only thing that will control my anxiety and constant crying. Finally got me to focus on my work and my environment. Says a lot about the legalization that is needed for this kind of medication.
Yes, there are going to have to be changes and one of them is moving out to an environment very, very conductive and receptive to the likes of me. In other words, just time to move on…even though the idea of losing family scares me, it did make me think one thing…what have I got to lose? I spend ten years trying to hook up with family and I’m still in the same place I was ten years ago. The hell with them. MY family is the people who want to be with me and I with them.
One thing for sure, it’s gonna hurt like hell!

I am glad you are ok now.. You know what a friend of mine who just got married last Dec. said family hurts the most… I thought about that for a bit and yes sometime that is what it takes to be healthy is to move on.
I haven’t seen some family members for 10 years. Yup believe it or not.. it hurts but they must have their own readon for not wanting to see me or other members and all I can do is respect their wishes. I don’t like it and want them to know I love them.
Oh yes I send them Christmas card of the girls smile but that is not always enough.
I envy those who have close-knit family. Much as I hear my son or my brother talking, neither of them seem to realized they are the ones keeping us separated.
I send a note to my son and brother on what the next step is to get my mom moved into assisted living. I found out they had already discussed this and never included me in the discussion. My brother’s reason is they also talked about what to do with me.
It just seems, I get frustrated with my family, but to them, I have melt-downs and I’m always angry. They never seem to realize its their action that is creating my situation.
Nevertheless, I am accountable to myself only…alone. Since they choose to do what they are doing, then I will simply remove myself from this family and get the hell out of Dodge. Am not going to waste another minute in this place or with them. If I die without family, at least one thing I know for sure….truth will always come out…but since truth is not something my family has an abundance of (or maybe they are just idiots) that is cool with me. They can continue to live their superficial small world life for all I care…I’m going global and I’m gonna find me a family I can live with…my friends, and people who have always took the time with me.
It still hurts.
I know it hurts alot… believe me…
Have you decided where you want to move to?
