Hate life

7 Replies

Here I am sitting in my car again that I can’t drive going to yet another location. Because I’m still in a sling since I had surgery on my shoulder. I get reminded every time that my life sucks. It’s a prison. I hate asking people for help and they complain when you do. And make a big deal out of it. They are suppose to be there for you when you need help. You can’t change your shirt without assistance. You have to try to sleep in a seated propped upright position. Lucky if you get two hours of sleep. Your in constant agonizing pain from the surgery. Who cares? Nobody! It’s almost as if I live with a stranger. By so called spouse.. I wish I could get a few days to myself away from here at least since I can’t drive or take myself to even go buy an energy drink... I’m falling into a hole. I don’t want to, but I feel it. I’m trying to hang on. I did mediAte this morning but here I am again being destroyed. As I write this I’m in tears

I am sorry, you are in bad situation when you really need help after surgery and it seems your spouse is not helping or when she is helping -she shows that she does not like it and does not care. it is not fair, it is cruel. It would take time for you to recover to the point to do things yourself and drive. But think about it: it will happen, right? You need patience now and think of that time: it will come. So it is not hopeless. Please hang in there, we care about you!

Thanks to you I needed to hear those words today

I live in a similar situation. I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy. If we are blessed enough to live a long life every one will wind up in need of help. Having experienced the coldness and degrading treatment that some people give to those of us in need of help; I have nothing but compassion now for everyone who suffers or is aged. I hope you are able to find peace in this time of trial.
