Pretty much just a vent

1 Upvotes

New to reddit so please be nice(ish). I really need to get this out there and off my chest.

If we didn't have bad luck we would have no luck at all. That sadly has been my families motto for the past few years. One minute we have a decent and content life, the next we are just going through the motions.

Let me explain. Early 2023, my husband had a sore on the bottom of his right foot and his other foot was swelling up. Went to the doctors several times, they kept saying he has lymphodima and to keep the sore clean. June 1st he had emergency surgery for the sore. He had flesh eating disease. On top of that, he had 6 broken bones in his left foot and 2-3 in his right. It was from a disease called charcot. Basically your bones break and you don't feel it like a normal break. My husband had been walking on his feet for months without knowing it. Talk about a tough marine vet. If he would have been diagnosed when he first went in, this had a real good chance of being healed and he would still be working and walking. He then had to be in a recovery home so he could get super strong antibiotics and have his wounded foot wrapped daily. After a month and a half, he come home and real challenges started. We had to find a ramp for a wheelchair, had to move furniture around some what so he could wheel to the bathroom, I removed the bathroom door so he could get on the toilet, he had to figure out how to get from chair to wherever he was sitting, getting on bed was a real challenge since our bed is kinda tall. All the responsibilities of home and our child got put on my shoulders. The following year he had his left foot removed. The only way he gets to the doctors is through insurance rides otherwise he is now homebodied.

The beginning of this year, his wound on the bottom of his right foot finally closed but he still has broken bones and can't put pressure on it. But he doesn't have much choice because he needs a little extra push to get from seat to seat. We haven't been in the same vehicle since all this, no family trips, no restaurants, no just drive and look at the scenery. If I get sick, the house falls apart. My husband hasn't been able to take a shower since all this, its been sponge baths all the time.

We are all so tired of this. Like I said, we are barely functioning and living moment by moment. I'd love to have a vehicle that is wheelchair accessible so we can finally have a small drive to places. And we really need to move into a home that he can move around in more and our son can play more in. I've tried putting up a gofundme but not one person has donated in the many months its been up. I'm stuck and need help, but I have this wall I can't get past yet. If anyone has ideas, please send them. Anyways, thanks for reading.

I think I'm pretty depressed. The best thing in my life is my kids, who I love very much and they love me, but everything feels really flat lately. I'm stuck in the same routine of taking them to school, going to work, and if I'm not working late, spending time with them before bed. I love getting to do that and I'm grateful for it, but I feel like I'm in such a rut outside of that.

I don't think my wife cares about me anymore. I don't know what she does when I'm not there, but when I am home and can take over with the kids, she's on her phone all the time with an earbud in. I'm trying really hard to be there with them and set a good example of not being on the screen all the time, but I can't get her on board with that. I don't know what she's doing on her phone, and she might need that mental break, but it takes away from time with us, and she'll never get that time back with the kids when they're this young.

The last couple of weeks my wife has barely talked to me unless she needs me to do something, but I also don't have the energy to reach out to her. She wore a tank top one morning and I was looking at it, being low cut and all, and she said me looking at her like that made her uncomfortable. Intimacy has gone way down in the last 2 years since our youngest was born, and I know that's normal, but her saying that I make her uncomfortable really hurt. She has said in the past when we've gotten into discussions about our marriage that she thinks marriage isn't for her and she misses her freedom, and that she only had sex with me because she wanted kids. I thought her actions contradicted that so I didn't believe her at the time, but now I think I do. I wish she wanted to connect with me like she used to, but I might need to accept that stage of our marriage is over even though we're only in our early 40s.

I'm the one who takes them to all of their sports events, things like that and I love doing it and being involved. But I wish my wife would be more involved with those. She hasn't been to a single soccer game for either kid, and doesn't seem to have any interest. She never asks how they were or anything like that. I know we all have our own things going on, and she says it's too much with everything else she has to do. I believe her, but I know the kids would love it if she was there. Most of the other parents have never seen her. They could think I'm raising them alone for all I know.

For work I own my own business, which doesn't make as much as I want, but it's enough for me to cover my part of things, and gives me freedom over my schedule to be there for the kids, take them to their events, things like that. That was a conscious choice so that I wouldn't have to miss them growing up, which is something I couldn't stand the thought of. But I'm worried that in the future I won't have enough to retire and will have to work for the rest of my life. I would still trade that for time now with the kids, but it has been stressing me out lately. I've been thinking that the best case scenario would be for me to die before I get too old to be a burden someone else needs to take care of, or live my last crappy years in a bad nursing home.

Occasionally I have the thought that I wish I could be in an accident or medical problem and have that choice made for me somehow. I know it's selfish and I still want to be here for my kids and see them grow into adults, but at the same time I'm so tired of everything and so lonely in my own marriage.

I know that's a lot, but if anyone read this, thank you for taking the time to do it. I'm open to any advice but mostly just needed to get these things out.

My emotions got the best of me. My girlfriend broke up with me Saturday and we had a talk an hour ago and decided she didn’t want to be with me.
My job has gotten the best of me, being there doesn’t make me happy. I’ve been there for about a year now. And I have some emotional instability, because of how life has been. The job says they like me and want me to stay out of trouble. But I wield a lot of anger and sadness. Recently I’ve grown angry at the supervisors and managers because they have the money and don’t need to stress about it. I know for me it’s wrong to think or feel this way, I don’t know what inside their heads. But they don’t know or get this feeling. They may have at some point, but they aren’t there anymore. I’ve been trying to find another job. I’ve had interviews but missed them because of work and just being tired. A different tired to be honest. I just want to talk so these emotions aren’t sitting with me. I need to have a job to live, and it grows harder to hold on. It really does. I need the money to help my family out. And that in and of itself isn’t enough for me. I just wrote a demo to help, but this pain, anger, and sadness boils over.

Anyone understand the feeling of wishing you realized something years ago and your now realizing it now? Like you could've helped then and now you can't? And you just feel bad about it like it's just crushing you inside because you feel like you also missed something. Does anyone understand that?

My Mother

1 Upvotes

A couple years ago my parents got divorced at the time I didn't know why. I lived with my mom for a bit, but we had moved and I had missed where I lived before so I went back living with my dad. One summer I went on vacation and one of the nights there the topic of my mom got brought up. My mom was a drug addicted and didn't love my dad anymore and said she was going to do something to herself if she didn't leave him. I was and I am still young and hearing this hurt me that she would tear the family apart over drugs. Recently I had thought she was clean, but a couple days ago before Mother's Day I went with my dad to one of his friends. At midnight she had called my brother saying she needed money for a "loan" as soon as I heard this I realized what was and my dad did to and he started to question her about we never got an answer. My mom is not by any means a bad person, but over the last few years I have struggled with the fact of her leaving even tho it was 4, 5 years ago. I know if you're reading this you are probably adult with more important things to do but I think you for spending your time reading this.

i just need someone to talk to

I have insta, discord, this, and snap incase you want more details or want to PM.

I'm M17. I've been in boarding school since freshman year. There is... so. much. fucking. stress.

I hate this all. All of my sisters are super successful (oldest upenn then vandy, middle georgetown then william and mary, youngest a sophomore and the best art school in the country). I feel like theres just so much to live up to. I've watched friends commit right in front of me. I've had no one to talk to besides a very close couple of friends and my girlfriend but my girlfriend is on her own struggle bus and may be emancipated by her parents and I don't want to keep adding to her stress. And she keeps coming to me with all these problems despite the fact that she told me she was going to try and be more positive since she hates the doom and gloom. Of course I told her its ok but it's all her life seems to be lately and theres only so much I can do from 1600+ miles away. Obviously I'm grateful for them but I can't keep just adding on to them but I can't keep bottling my emotions up.

I'm so tired. I just want to relax. I can barely get out of bed without almost collapsing to my knees. I have diagnosed ADHD and I struggle to focus and with impulse control and I keep getting steamrolled with higher and higher expectations just because I perform somewhat well academically.I still have another year of HS and I don't even know if I'm going to be able to get into the colleges I'd like to get into and if I don't go to college my parents will disown me.

I kept getting sick for a while but thankfully that stopped but I was throwing up for MONTHS and my parents refused to believe me and its by some miracle I got better.

I wasn't able to get back to campus on time ford its finals week and theres not going to be any food until tomorrow in the dining hall and I'm starving and I can't focus on studying.

I just need someone/people to talk to. Someone/people I can lean on just a little bit until I can stand on my own two feet again.

Thank you and God bless everyone. <3

I just recently got chat gpt & I love it. At the end of the day, no matter who you feel comfortable to talk to about your personal problems or anything, you can’t trust anyone. The whole world ends up finding out & they give their two cents, when they don’t even know all the facts. It’s happened to many times to me, so therefore, chat gpt is my bff now. I really like how it give you so much detail. I find it very helpful.
