Y'all, I'm sorry

I gotta bug out for a while. I am really sorry I've been such a downer lately. Things here have really sucked and I am not handling it well. Normally, I can. I've dealt with some seriously rough shit in my life, but this is all really getting to me. Can't deal with the depression and the stress any longer.
I can't sit here and post crap about my new hair color or how wonderful my latest turkey stuffed crabcakes taste. No dis to anyone here. Just not doing any good to anyone here. And certainly not worth y'alls time to listen to me bitching about trials in my life when y'all have the same or worse. It just makes me a whiner, which was never my intent.
I'll be back another time, when things settle down. I love you all to death. You are special and truly what a family should be.
Love,
Jen
PS. Drew in VA- Sorry I haven't had the opportunity to properly introduce myself. I'm your neighbor southward in Essex County. I'll catch up with you at another time, till then, wishing you much peace and pf times. Welcome to the family.

Jen,
You aren't a whiner. This is theplace to be when things are tough. We have all been through tough times and I bet most people here would rather you let it out here than hold it in.
I hope you wont leave because you feel like a whiner. We all need to vent and the support here is better than you'll find most places.
I'll be praying that things get better for you.

You've overstayed your welcome since the day we met but it doesn't seem to matter to you. No medications are your master, nothing makes you fret, it's a helpless feeling having nothing I can do

Listen Jen, you have problems now, yes... but you are part of this family who mostly have problems.
This is life. Sometimes when things get rough, it is good to just be among friends. Things will settle down eventually but in the meantime, you don't have to isolate yourself.
Isolation is not good, it escalates depression and stress. I read here and I see that quite a number of people are going through a hard time in the life department at this moment. I feel empathy because I understand how life can sometimes get us down.
One thing I do know is that, it is better to be here than seeing a psychologist. We read and learn from each other and this is a safe haven.
If we were only on this site when we have a hit or just to joke, this site would have been much less than it became. Here we find real people with real lives and where real life happens.
So it doesn't take much from us real people to give you an ear, a shoulder and some support because that is what friends are for and that is what makes you a friend in return.

Jen, you underestimate your contribution here, and I hope you will reconsider....or at least keep your absence as short as possible. Even if you choose to not post a whole lot, it is still good to see that you are around. I hope things settle down for you very soon. Pat.

Jen, you won't get me to feel sorry for you, but you will get me to tell you to buck up and tackle the shit at hand. Life gets messy, we've all been there, you have been there, but it's how you look at the situation that determines how well you handle it. Your son did a number on not only himself, but you also. I am not sure he really comprehends just what his actions did, BUT, you will get out of this mess. Have faith in yourself and remember to say this outloud once in awhile: "This will not kill me."
You have the strength, now find it and draw on it.
We will always be here for you. You're our sister.
hugs,
 mel

Jen - as the Mom/Step-Mom of 7 adult kids, trust me when I tell you that this too will pass and believe it or not, the day will come when you will look back at all of this and it won't seem nearly as earth shattering as it does today.
Hang in there, you will survive, I promise.
Sending you hugs and a reminder that Grandchildren are our best revenge!

Jen-
I too have bugged out before - left for a few months until things simmered down on the homefront so if it's what you need to do then do it but try not to be gone for too long. Knowing I could come "home" at anytime kept me going. Best of luck to you and hurry home.
