Early Wednesday

[lisa-denise-ely]

I am actually up early this morning spending time with a friend.  I love her, she is like a sister to me and she has been a great support for my quit.  Her name is Courtney.  🙂

I am having lots of drama with my Mother and am having a hard time with it.  I have come to realize that i just can't keep loving my Mom when she treats me like dirt.  She uses all her diagnosis' as an excuse to treat me very bad.  I cannot take it anymore.  She makes me feel like i should die or that she is bullying me to kill myself.  NOT gonna happen!  I would never hurt myself but she is making me feel like a burden and she is taking out all her anger out on me, degrading me, even in front of people i know.

Anyway, being tempted to smoke is the least of my worries;  i am severely depressed but i am seeing the psychiatrist on friday.  Maybe he can help me with this depression.  At least i hope so.

Love, Lisa

(((((LISA))))) That is an aweful way to feel, are you an only child?  I hope the psychiatrist can help you find the strength to stand up to your mother.  Its good that you have Courtney to talk to maybe she can  give you some relief.  Glad you don't want to smoke!!!

I will keep you in my thoughts!

Lisa:

I can relate to your situation totally. Although I don't have a complete understanding of your problems and can only say this--hang in there and make sure you make it to the psychiatrist on friday. In the meantime just remember that you are special in your own unique way and we all will keep you in our prayers.

Hi, Lisa - Find people and be with people who will support you and lift you up and build you up. People have a choice to ENcourage or DIScourage. As mentioned above, make sure you keep your appointment!! I know what depression can do. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. I am really glad that you are not tempted to smoke during your stress!! Keep it up! You are doing something really good for yourself. Take care.

I have depression too.  I have found that exercise can relieve symptoms greatly.  I don't have a busy schedule....but it sounds like you do.  The exercise helps with cravings as well and tones you up so it's a bountiful benefactor.  Find time in your day to do some stretches and general exercises that make you feel better.  You don't have to be a body builder.  Perhaps your Mom is getting dementia, they can get mean sometimes.  I hope this helps....perhaps she is the one who needs to see a professional too.
