Hello lovely people...Oh my goodness how much to share, but all is not important. I'm 53yrs, Mother of 4 beautiful girls. Twice married with our 4 th daughter.
I've had 2 suicide attempts in the last 2 weeks. I am weak, I am lost, vulnerable & damn, Alcohol is again playing it's part.
My go to, my friend, my constant, my destroyer....how does something become so magnified, so raw, so SHIT!

You did it right, @MJane69. Yes, each day I go about as if all is well, and sometimes it actually is, but my memories haunt me. My life is hell, really, I have only been able to keep going because of the support I have received from this forum. I also occupy myself with study and that had been very rewarding, but at the moment I am in a bit of a lull and wondering if I'll drop my course. It's very expensive and has to be worth the money, the time and the effort. To date, I have given it my all, but I have a habit of speaking frankly, more frankly than others are used to, it seems. I seem to rub people the wrong way. Things are a bit up in the air at the moment. I'll have to see how things shape up.
Do you have interests?

I'm going to have an early night, @MJane69. It's been an exhausting week for me.

Thank you for thinking of me, @MJane69. Actually, at 2.22 pm, I have just got out of bed. I have been feeling awful, today. I hope things are going very differently at yours, with yours.

Thanks for asking, @MJane69. I'm actually in the doldrums at the moment, but I'm keeping busy with one thing or another. You sound much brighter than previously. If so, enjoy it!
