...See more I am sitting here seething my BP is up and i want to vent.  Every time i speak to spouse he literally does not hear me at all or does a head nod just to pretend he heard.   Then moments later he wakes up from his fog and repeats what i just said like it was NEW information. An empty restaurant store front near us last Thursday had new signs put up to show what will take that space ... I asked him did you see the signs ..."new place opening soon at where X restaurant used to be but I have never heard of new name....' he says "yeah yeah"  head nods etc..... TODAY,  Sunday he runs into house after being out and says DID you see new signs up on that empty storefront.....  i just stared at him and said "why yes when i asked you last Thursday "  and he said "OH yeah i thought you meant something else." ...think this is covering as he never tells me what he thought i said. Am i wrong for being mad that he does this sort of thing a lot? ......  he is often pretending conversation was to something not even related.........Now wants a conversation about the place opening.... i walked away. I have explained how disrespectful this is or seems since UNLESS he notices it just did not happen.

...See more Check In for October 31 to November 3, 2024 October 31 is Halloween. Halloween's origins can be traced back to the ancient Celtic festival known as Samhain, which was held on November 1 in contemporary calendars. It was believed that on that day, the souls of the dead returned to their homes, so people dressed in costumes and lit bonfires to ward off spirits. What is your favorite Halloween costume or movie?

Need support/no friends

...See more Hello all, new here.  I have many things that seem to be adding to my daily stress.  I am dealing with a better half who is an alcoholic, my Dad just this week was entered into hospice, I am a teacher (middle school math), and Me and only me takes care of all household chores etc.  I believe I need an outlet to discuss freely these things but I do not have one.  I have very few friends and do not feel close enough to them to discuss all of this.  Does anyone have any suggestions?

50 years of age and newly estranged from my entire family

...See more Hi all, Recently "ran away" from my family and went no contact. Currently living at a buddhist center. Estrangement is an unexplainable experience beyond my cognition or comprehension. I just knew I needed to go, and that it was and is my responsibilty to choose looking forward instead of looking back. Me being in the 7C community is looking forward. I'm pressing reset and learning to build the foundation for the actual support I need - and want - to create all the good in my life that I've prayed for and been gifted the vision of.  Feeling quite bruised and very tender, actually feeling though. Step by step. 🌹
