Alone, frightened, and now on my own!

[Riley2001]

I have posted here before about the level of discomfort I was experiencing living with my elderly mother who does not understand what it is like living with severe depression. All I have been feeling is blinding resentment. It was making me miserable. I am not sure where this anger comes from. I felt the compelling need to vacate. I caught a huge break that put enough money in my pocket to get out of dodge, and that is what I did. I am staying at a hotel 100 miles away. The most I was able to do was give her a firm hug and tell that I loved her. She cried. She made me a care package. I know she loves me. She wanted me to stay and said that I had a home there. It is not my home. It is hers. I am facing a great deal of uncertainty. I do not know where i am going to live and have many worries. I will continue to reach out to the universe for guidance and strength. Thank You.

hello, I just wanted to say I read your post and that someone somewhere is thinking of you

I hope having space and time alone helps to reduce some of your strong emotions and you can see more clearly, your next step.

And that was your first step, I believe. Paying attention to what you need to help improve your mental health.
