re: #170 A Mom Anon

Thanks to everyone above for the support. (((hugs )))to all of you going through the same sorts of things, I know it sucks.
If it weren’t for my kids and grandkids, I would probably deactivate my Facebook page entirely. I just got another freaking “positive message” from someone who says they want to be around people who “dream and do” and not people who just talk and do nothing. OFFS. No I don’t do anything at all, ever. Never taught a non verbal kid to talk, to write, to read, to care for himself, nope, nothing to see here move along. Never got off my ass and lost 20 lbs by moving and improving my diet (without being faddish, I swear if I see one more recipe for a kale smoothie or some “cleansing” diet I’m going to start haunting people by leaving cupcakes on their doorsteps). Nope, not me, no I haven’t walked 2.5 million steps with my doggie since last summer. No nothing to see here. Didn’t put in a garden all by myself, moving a couple tons of dirt a wheelbarrow at a time, nope not me.

Help me to not end up in jail for assault with a deadly foot up the ass. My friends list on Facebook just got whittled down to 12 people this morning, everyone else can kiss my ass. My slowly shrinking ass.

When I’ve been in the worst of depressive episodes, I tried to accomplish two things every day —getting out of bed counts as one. Brushing my teeth another. Putting a load of laundry into the washer actually counts as two.

No, people who have not been thru it will never understand.

((((((hugs)))))))
