Hey I'm doing ok. I'm kinda stressed about having two papers to finish before break.
@friendlyLake5949 Hey! When do they need to be done by? I hope they're at least on interested topics for you!
Hi. Feeling like I'm not good enough. My daughter's birthday is Thurs. and I'm a mess right now. It's hard with the holidays.
@RedHawk6547 are you alright? you can talk to us fam :) hope things will get better for you!
@RedHawk6547
Sorry you
Hello.
I am still struggling a lot with flashbacks and slowly trying to put pieces together of what may have happened to me when I was young. Its kind of excruciating lately. I struggle bit to feel like I deserve to exist as a person. I have a therapy appointment in the morning so hopefully that will be beneficial.
@pioneeringBanana1598 hello, i'm so sorry terrible things happened to you when you was young. you deserve to live, everyone deserve to live so don't worry. things will get better. hope you'll feel better after your appointment. you're strong
I'm torn and I have that way for several days.
@Rebekahwriter13
Hey Rebekah, would you like to talk about what you're feeling torn about? That sounds rough to be feeling that way for days.
@AmityLagniappe my parents got divorced when I was 9 and I've felt torn ever since.
However since my dad got remarried for third time, my new stepmother is very controlling and manipulating and some issues we had in which my brother and I were pushed away from the family. I miss my younger brothers and my dad.
I feel bad as I am with my mom, but I always feel the other side pulling at me.
@Rebekahwriter13
I understand what you mean. I have experienced family estrangement too. That definitely does sound conflicting. I think the way you feel is totally valid. I'm sorry to hear that you and your brother are feeling pushed away from that side of the family, and that you're missing your younger brothers and dad. This must be very hard around the holidays.
When you mentioned feeling bad being with your mom, am I hearing that it's like a guilt feeling not being with the other side of the family?
