How do you clear your mind when your going through something tough?

Posted by admin in Uncategorized on July 10, 2010

I just need to forget about everything and clear my mind for a little bit.

I’m in this fight with a few of my friends and I can’t stand it! They have always been there for me, for everything, and now we are in this fight. I have tried desperately to solve it, but it has spun out of control and people are taking sides. Something that originally was between me and one other girl turned into something between my school and our brother-school. It no longer involves me and the other girl, but it still affects us daily.

My father is in prison and for the last year, it has been terribly hard on us! He has been my role model since I was little and it’s so hard not having him around. My mother is an alcoholic and her alcoholism has been getting progressively worse. Last night she was passed out by 6pm and I spent an hour crying to me friends about how I didn’t know what to do with her, but I was concerned for her safety.

I just need to escape from all of this and clear my mind. I need a moment to breathe and think. So what do you all do when your going through something challenging?

How can I make it clear I do not wish to hear about my estranged sister? My family is haunting me about this

Posted by admin in Uncategorized on July 1, 2010

My eldest sister is the original 50 year old drama queen who’s life has mirrored anything like a soap opera. If it isn’t 3 out of her 4 kids being hard core drug users, it’s her own drug use, her husbands alcoholism, lies, theft, police, jail, prison, the list goes on and on and on.

My eldest sister is not only mentally ill, but she is obviously using drugs… which she will never admit too. I am tired. I am tired of all the drama and considering she lives 1200 miles away I hear about it still.. through my other sisters.

I made the decision to remove the drama from my life. I have my own troubles and don’t wish to be drawn down anymore.

Most recently one of my siblings was speaking to me about “helping” the eldest sister and how I should feel sorry for her and forgive her. I said , “I forgaver her long ago” I just don’t want her in my life. I told my sibling that she needs to quit trying to fix something that isn’t hers to fix. How can I make i clear I don’t want
and honestly the stress isn’t good for my own health issues and neither on my husband who has multiple sclerosis. How can I make it clear and I mean it. I don’t want to be burdened anymore?

To All Alcohol Lovers: Earlier I posted a ? asking how long it takes for alcohol to clear a person’s system…

Posted by admin in Uncategorized on June 26, 2010

My reason for posting the previous ?: I was searching for a way to help my boyfriend “beat the system”.

My reason for posting this ?: He feels that his rights have been violated. Although I admit he has a serious alcohol addiciton & could benefit from treatment, I too am inclined to believe his rights are being violated. What do you think?

Details:
In September of last year I fell seriously ill. In short, I had severe muscle atrophy, rendering me unable to walk. My boyfriend quit his job to take care of me. (Thanks to his help, I have since recovered!)
By around January of this year, he had ran out of cash. He turned to Social Services for financial help until he’s able to
find a job. They told him he must comply with treatment for his alcohol addiction in order to continue receiving benefits.
Considering the fact that he didn’t quit his job as a result of his drinking problem, I feel this it is an unjustified requirement.

What do you think?
An important note to add: My boyfriend has never missed a day of work as a result of his alcohol addiction.
