Re: when is it time for hospital

In relation to @soul who just posted,yes good points ,you are a student, employee etc,I am no expert of those things and feel lost.Had a falling out with a sister years ago.Yesterday in a cafe ,my sister walks in with two daughters.I had to walk past and not look to get out.My niece walks out and I had to ask which one she was.I hugged her she's around 13-14. I. Am nothing outlander but a failure,don't give up.

Re: when is it time for hospital

hey @outlander
sounds like you have had a rough startvto the morning..
you spoke about how you don't know who you are.. or at least have forgotten..
this sounds exactly like what i deal with.. every day..
something that does work i have used in the past is to think of myself and who i am in a top-down sense
so.. i am hamsolo01 (not my real name lol) and i do "xyz"..
the opposite to this is bottom-up... which never works.. so.. i do "xyz" and i am hamsolo01.
The first of these 2 approaches is the best, because i dont make myself depend myself on anything/anyone in order to have a sense of "self". I am who I am THEN i go and do all these things (uni, tutoring, gym, friendships etc)..
The point is I don't make my self worth or sense of self conditional on anything in particular.
To do that would invite problems.. especially when those things end..
Anyways idk if that helps.
Hope you have a day not too filled with difficulty and that you are feeling safe.

Estranged from my sister too @Former-Member. Have no idea why but it's too hard. Reached out - was rejected and told in no uncertain terms, she didn't want me to be part of her life. Have to let it go.

@soul,she is a large part of why I got mental illness,I avoid those circumstances due to anxiety.I felt like a trapped animal.I felt more remorse for my fact that my nieces suffered through that and that I am now a failure.I feel everything they made me out to be I now AM.At my age, I never grew,or was thwarted in being allowed to be given the chance.

It's hard @Former-Member. Took me a while to accept that. My sadness comes from my children being ostracised as well. Wish they could have grown up in something that wasn't always a dysfunctional family environment.

Hopefully they will have better relationships of their own down the track. Both my parents have passed away now. Can't see any reason I would ever meet with my sister and brother again.

It is what it is. I could be devastated by, try to fix it only to be shattered again or move on. I chose the latter.
