Anyone Else Having A Bad Day?

[FindingMyself88]

Today is hitting harder than I thought it would. Last night was EXTREMELY hard. I battled going to church and ended up not going. I didn't feel like acting happy when everyone else had plans. My day has consisted of sitting at home with dogs and cleaning. Least some of my favorite shows have been on today. I went on Facebook and all I saw was family pictures and it saddened me, normally it doesn't. I can't explain it. I think it was knowing that for other families today is a day to spend time together and do things with each other. For me, that wouldn't be a good thing lol. I don't know, I will just be glad to get this day over with, anybody else?

Anxiously trying to find a way to get a flight that will allow me time with my son who's in a psych ward and back in time for my hearing for my restraining order. I've not slept and wait anxiously next to the phone for information. Yes, crap-tacular day. I am ready for it to be over.

Most 'family' holidays are not a barrel of laughs for me. Unfortunately but unavoidably thats the way it is. I find the absence of a positive time tough but the bitter sweet neutral scenario I have is better than a contorting facade of repression.

One day Im hoping that my circumstance will change for the better.

I struggle with every holiday. I tend to just isolate myself and wait for the tide to pass. Hope you are feeling better.

Yes, I can relate. I'm avoiding Facebook today like the plague. Hugs to you, if you accept them.

@desiderata310 I hope everything works out, that certainly sounds anxiety provoking!
@Springer80 well said. This isn't the worst Holiday for me thankfully, but I always hate holidays that fall on Sundays. I never like going and acting happy… so today I just didn't go.
@TLight at least we all have each other here..
@Dee Morris Like I told Springer80, I normally try to just try to manage through, but today I'm just staying home.. Thank you, I hope you are doing okay!
@Justmehere :hug: I need to learn to avoid FB… days like these makes me just want to delete it.

I went over to the Ex's parents, so my son could have us both there for the holiday. As usual, her step dad was plastered. He woke up to empty his bladder and kicked the dog, which set the Ex off crying.

It upset me too, but I consoled her and that band-aid held until he tripped over my sons Easter basket and proceeded to destroy all the goodies.

I managed to stay calm, but went out to talk to her step dad while he was smoking. He doesn't like to be confronted much, but I had to say something. He just got more drunk after that.

Looks like everyone had a craptastic day.

Yep. Triggered again tonight. Crappy

Yup! screwed up even more today! All the crap from the past is surfacing at the top again today. This month has been the worst month after January this year. I don't know I'll be normal again, oh,, is there a real word called 'normal'?? I guess, normal doesn't exist in my dictionary anymore. Sorry, just disappointed.

Try thinking of it this way @FindingMyself88 - you DID spend the day with your family - at home with your fur-babies. My creatures are some of my most valued family members. :)
