I feel like a dementor got me

"Get to near a dementor and every good feeling, every happy memory will be sucked out of you....You will be left with nothing but the worst experiences of your life."

Maybe it's the cloudy, raining sad day, maybe it because StbX is in charge of our boys this week and yesterday he forgot to send our boys to school with what they needed (6year olds homework folder and 4 year olds linens for nap time) *sigh*, maybe it because it looks like I wont get the house I hope to buy, maybe it's because I haven't heard from the job I recently applied for, maybe its because my mom, sister, and best friend live 3,000 miles away...  but I just want to run home and curl up in bed and cry and be miserable today...

Re: I feel like a dementor got me

  • I am pretty sure we have all been there. My advice is to feel, cry and move on. I would always give myself 1 goal on bad days. Something small like, I WILL have a good lunch, ice cream, clean a room, exercise or go to a movie. ANYTHING! Just to keep me from laying in bed doing nothing all day.

    I am sorry things are tough. ((hugs))

  • I agree with the other PP.  Try to focus on the good thing that you have and not dwell on what you don't have.  The future has not happened yet so don't count your losses and count your blessings.
  • Aw I'm so sorry you're having such a sad day :(  I hate those days...I have quite a few of them too, so I know how you feel.  Like PP said.. just let yourself be sad today and cry if you have to.  It would be a nice thing to treat yourself to something today that you might not normally do for yourself on a rainy Tuesday.. like maybe go get a pedicure or go buy yourself something special.  I'd say go eat something fattening and delicious.. but I know you said your stress is making you not hungry or into the foods you normally like.  Last week I was really sad and I went to Barnes & Noble after work.. got myself a delicious coffee and sat down and read through some self help books... it sounds corny but it helped me a lot.  Hang in there .. xoxo
