THIS SUCKS!

Lifer April 29th, 2019

I had a bad night's sleep so today has been kind of awful. (Not stay in bed all day but stay in pjs all day bad)
I've unloaded my anxiety onto my husband- my positive, going to get me out of this problem husband- and now I've depressed him.
My daughter called and hates her job that she NEEDS because she bought a house that was too expensive for her.
I need her to sell this house- take a loss and let me out of this misery!

Anyone have any advice?

@Lifer sorry life is handing you so many challenges. Getting help from a professional can help our mental state and make things not look so glum. I find writing down a list of all my options opens my mind to new possibilities.

Regarding your daughter -- we learn as we grow. If she bought a house that is beyond her means, she is learning the consequences of that action in the form of having to work a job that makes her unhappy. She will survive this life lesson.

You do not need to take on her suffering. Can you offer her non-judgmental support and let her find her own way? I believe that approach will be the most positive for your relationship -- well beyond this house and this job, which are temporary objects in her life.

@DrumDude Great advice but because of my anxiety, it's really difficult to share NON judgmental advice. The money loss kills me but it can be recovered over her lifetime, but with that said, I think she should cut her losses now!!! We guided her to the wrong path, we should help put her back on ther right one.
