Hello, Day 1

Postby driverl86 » Wed Jul 27, 2011 3:00 pm

Hello everyone, This is my first day on here. I saw the 14 day process and am giving it a try. I dont usually reach out for help anymore but I can tell that it is effecting not just me but everyone around me. I feel so alone and I dont have anyone to talk to who wont judge me. To make this quick, Im am suffering from a lifetime of neglect, bullying, sadness and anger. I have never been close to anyone....ever. I feel like a balloon that someone let go and I just drift farther and farther away. I go for long periods of time without talking to family and friends. They all judge that's why I dont talk to them. I dont want to write a book on my troubled past but just to give you an idea, neglectful mother who left at a young age, father was a drinker and a bully, bullied at school b/c we were poor, got married&pregnant at 16. Im not a pitiful victim. Im not asking anyone to feel sorry for me. It's just that I have felt so alone for so long and I cant shake that feeling. I wish I had someone to talk to who could help me. All I ever hear is, get over it and move on and I have but it dosnt change the fact that Im hurting. I was never able to truly grieve the loss of my mother (still living but not around). I was never able to talk to anyone about how I feel. I was always told growing up that crying dosnt solve anything. To this day I cannot cry in front of people or when Im alone. I feel so lost. My life is not all bad though. I've been married for 9 years and I have a beautiful 8 yo daughter. I can look around me right now and I cant tell you one thing that I need that I dont already have. I am very blessed. I have come a very long way in my. God bless my husband for sticking with me all these years lol. I really need to break down these walls before it starts effecting my releationship with my husband and daughter.

*Clap* Yay I am really glad you are here!! I did the CCCC steps and they really helped me. I know you want to be strong and not pitiful... I get that. But this is a place where you can feel free to share and talk. Chat is fun... and there are other good studies. *Pray* Im praying that you will find help and peace by doing the steps and God will bless you good.

You have everything yet feel so empty?

I can relate.

I pray through this process you can build a closer relationship with the one who can not only break down those walls but can give you joy and peace beyond your understanding.

He's really good like that. :)
*angel7* Sorrow looks back, Worry looks around, But faith looks up! Live simply, love generously, care deeply, speak kindly and trust in our Creator who loves us.
