@AffyAvo
In the words of Led Zeppelin....
Good Days, Bad Days, you know I've had my share...
Friday was a bad one, and now sleepless at 530 am....
@BiTraci
Hello there, sorry to hear you are facing a difficult moment.
I hope it will go better soon, take care!
Welcome @Havingfuninthesnow @diligentTangerine7234 agreeableZebra7523 @funnyIdea4336 @Cherub786786786 @Supportivespace49
What brought you here?
@AffyAvo
No one cares, wants to help me and I just don't know what to do anymore. Mindfulness and distraction does not work. Coping skills do not work. I don't know what to do anymore since when I ask anybody, they don't know what to say or how to help either.
@Havingfuninthesnow I'm sorry to hear that it sounds like you've run out of ideas to try. What problems are you facing?
@AffyAvo
Doctors not helping, referring, knowing what to do and what is causing my issues. So much medical issues that I just cry and on Friday they said I had cancer. Not even sure how to tell people and what words. Feel like I am hiding things.
Divorce but trying to stick it out until my son graduates. Don't think it is going to work thou.
Abuse
Feel like I want to run away and find some corner in the world and just pull up the covers and give up since no one cares or wants to help me.
@Havingfuninthesnow That is lots! I sounds like some things will slowly get untangled though. You've been told you have cancer, so it's at least an answer and hopefully a treatment plan is coming.
WIth your relationship, it sounds like that is changing to, maybe not in the way that you want but it can be better than being stuck.
Are you able to get out of the abuseful situation?
@AffyAvo
just sitting in this car crying and not knowing where to go. What to do
@Havingfuninthesnow Aww, sorry it's so hard. Where you planning on going somewhere? Can you compose yourself enough so that you're capable of safely driving? If not you may either need to stay near your current location or pay/ask a friend for a ride.
When things are really tough sometime it's all about just focusing on one step at a time, doing the things that are important to do and letting less important things slide.
@AffyAvo
My therapist sent an email and won't see me until I am medically stable. Having major panic attack now. I have been asking for a very long time for medical help.
@Havingfuninthesnow Can your therapist refer you for more help?
@AffyAvo
I want him. I don't want to start again.
@Havingfuninthesnow I understand, it's unfortunate he won't support you right now.
Hello. Recently joined the site and now too the 50 plus. Hope everyone is well.
@pinkKiwi1901 Welcome! I hope you're enjoying it here!
Hello, new member here. I like the idea of a 50+ group, right up my alley.
Don't know about others, but there's an amazing amount of things I love about being 50+ and, well, some not so great things. Just like life, tho', you get out of it what you put in and now I'm able to start doing things that I didn't have time before. Yes, I miss the good 'ol days when my kids were young and we spend 110% everyday just raising and taking care of them. Now they're all grown-up and mostly moved out. Yup, I do miss them. But now ... I get to try new things and not have to worry about driving and appointments and schools, etc. Life is good!

@AffyAvo thank you for the welcome. I am grateful to find others who have or are facing the later years of life I am now experiencing I am hopeful 2019 will be better than 2018. I have had a rough go learning to live with my new normal with life
