Family

[pcastle]

I keep trying to be better, happier, healthier, and less anxious, but there are people in my life who keep putting me down. My family hurts me the most, yet they’re the only ones I can’t get away from. All I want is support and the people who are there for me, my best friends, live hundreds of miles away, and here I am...stuck.

I’m sorry you are feeling like this and people are putting you down. I’m not sure if I’m trying but I would like to be better happier healthier and less anxious. But I’m not getting a lot of help or support and it’s hard. My family doesn’t understand, my husband definitely doesn’t understand and unintentionally makes it worse. I don’t have any friends just acquaintances really. This site helps and sometimes you connect to someone and becomes friends. Sometimes they disappear for whatever reason but I’ve had a few that helped while we were in touch. People here can give you support and understanding.

castle, I am so sorry that you are facing this and feeling this way. I have moved a lot and I know what it is like to have all my friends be far away and all over the US for that matter. It helped us grow closer oddly enough and it helped make our friendships more interesting because we communicated about everything. Sometimes my best friend and I would play the same movie and sit on the phone and it was like we were watching it together. Sometimes you have to get creative but it is the friends that will do this silly stuff that I knew were my true friends no matter where we were. I hope that you find friends and people to talk to. Think positive - good things are in store for you!
