What Made You Angry Today?

[Tanishq]

he did not want to talk about college

I do act like today. It is like facing fears on my own. Your son is trying to deal with it in his own ways. I do lock up myself in room for some days. Please don't get angry over him, try to make him talk perhaps? go slowly.

@Tanishq, thank you for the insight. I really appreciate it. I try not to push him too much, let him handle it on it's own, but it is hard when you know he is hurting to step back. It helps me to hear from someone who has been in his place.

Hearing some vegan twat telling depressed people to "harden the f*ck up" and go to cambodia to see how people "really struggling" are so grateful for everything they have! It annoys me when I hear people preaching that all a depressed person needs to do is count their blessings and remember someone always has it worse than they do, and are coping better. To me, that just makes the person feel guilty that they aren't coping as well...it doesn't help at all. :mad:

@Britt.f7 Dont get angry on him. Give him your motherly love, he needs that. Motherly love is powerful, the best. It will help him in its own way. Believe me. I do want this, but I can't. This biological mother doesn't even try to understand like you do. You came so near to your own son. Stay with him. You are very good mother.

@Tanishq Thank you for your support and compliment. I am sorry your own mother can not be nurturing. Everyone needs that. I did tell my son I am not the enemy and he said he is trying not to seem that way. He means well too. I'm trying to be supportive. No longer angry.

 

[Tanishq]

No longer angry.

Britt, I am happy to read this. :hug:

It was last night. I was watching tv in the living room with my mom. I told her my skin was crawling because I'd just been startled by finding a bug on my arm. And we were kind of laughing about how awkward it is when you feel like your skin is crawling. And she laughed and said "you've got the PTSD". I stopped laughing and looked away. I didn't think it was funny.

I am angry that a bad woman is trying to worm her way back into my life. I will ignore all attempts and not get involved at all.
I feel so much stronger now. Just the thought of her and what she has done to me and to my family has really triggered me and I will stand by this saying, Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me.

I will just ignore her and remain out of it. Eventually she will go away. No response is the best response.

The struggle my daughter is facing through no fault of her own. I wish I could take the hurt away.

My son missing school again today. He knows it can get him in to trouble, as well as us, but he continues to do it. It just makes it worse for him. Did I teach him to sabotage himself? This is not good.

I just got a phone call from the counseling center where I see my therapist telling me she's leaving at the end of May. I have to start all over again with a new therapist. That's 3 therapists in 18 months.
