[QUOTE="New Leaf, post: 683917, member: 19522"] Walrus, I am sorry for this latest issue. I am glad you were able to get your feelings out here, that is good. Vent away, you are entitled...... I have found in our situation that right when I start to feel a bit better, stronger and relaxed, boom, that's when the :poop: hits the fan.........[I]I have to remind myself to brace for that[/I].....I think it would be next to impossible to not be a little effected and feel the need for a vent or rant and that's how I see your post. You have picked yourself up before and brushed yourself off right quick after other episodes, and I am sure you will do that again. Up, down, up down.....when does it end? I think we get to a point where[I] we hit rock bottom[/I] from all of the heartache and stress of this, and try to find ways to lessen the emotional blows. But, again, [I]I see you doing this in your posts Walrus[/I]. I think it is awesome we have this place to bounce our greatest fears and worries, even anger around and[I] get it out.[/I] Then afterwards with all the responses and understanding, we can heave a big sigh, brush ourselves off and carry on. Because for a lot of us, this is the only place we come to share this crap. Sorry, that's what it is, crap.... We go to work and hear folks tell their tales of their kids graduating from college, or taking their kids on trips to look at colleges, yada, yada, we smile and congratulate. Yay, Junior is an engineer and Susie is a nurse, and Jill's expecting, blah, blah, blah, somehow [I]our news doesn't fit in[/I].......... So, vent away Walrus, get it out. I am going to have a vent with you....... Just imagine we are sitting around the table having a cup of coffee together and you just shared the latest and I am like "Oh my Gawd, I can so relate......" Here goes...... :mornincoffee: So, Friday I take off work and go to my daughters court case and hear all kinds of tawdry, icky stuff, but I am there to support her. Meanwhile, her dad is at home waiting for me, with a fever going up and down, long story short, he winds up in the hospital. Saturday, Rain calls her sister and asks why no one is answering the home phone. She is told her father is in the hospital, very sick..... she then proceeds to say she is going to catch the bus down to visit him. He waits and waits, [I]and she never shows up........ [/I] So, again, the umpteenth time, people have bent over backwards to support her, but she can't follow through and visit her very ill father. He is the one who has helped her the most and put up with all the shenanigans, made her food, have her shower, wash her clothes.....this is the thanks and appreciation he gets. I should have been home taking care of him.......I was at court. For her............ I can only imagine she is down at the park, griping to people that her parents don't care, kicked her out and it's all my fault...... I am so mad at her, her choices, this continuing series of bad, bad people she chooses to hang out with. She is 37 frigging years old, so the whole frontal lobe theory does not apply. It is meth. Yes, she is an addict, but I am with you, where the h e double l is rock bottom? :soapbox: :919Mad: Vent over.....that feels better............. :imok: Im okay and so are you. You are doing this, getting through all of this :poop:. That's what it is a big ole pile of nasty smelling :poop:, same ole, same ole. Hopefully, one day it will stop. Hopefully, our d cs will figure this out. In the meantime, when the :poop: hits the fan, grab a cup of whatever, sit down and post your heartache away. That is what we are here for.
