Re: Sleeping too much
I'm trying to pull my own head up right now.
I think of late I'm probably not doing so great.
I need a holiday.
If only to escape my life for one day.
I'm over giving on everything. I feel walked over but I know I just need to pull up.
No one can do it for me.
But you have those ones. 😞

Re: Sleeping too much

Re: Sleeping too much
Hi @SC22
I'm Decadian - one of the onlys - I have been on my own for over 25 years now - and most of the time I am used to it - but I certainly know what you are talking about
I joined this site just after Easter when I spent four days alone sitting with my badly bruised foot elevated and the weather was pretty bad I seem to remember - and I started to feel like a piece of mouldy cheese - and on the Tuesday following Easter I woke up feeling very low on a scale of 1 - 10 - I might have registered 1.5 and that's being generous.
And this site has been really great - I can stand being alone, isolated is not to bad, but when I was stuck here alone for days I got a bad dose of the downers - ooohhhhh - I used to think that loneliness did not draw people together - but here - it does
Of course - I have felt lonely in a crowd - I don't have many family members I see - my dd and her family from time to time - but my story goes back many years when stuff I don't need to mention now caused my parents did not want to help - they regretted it in the end and I felt vindicated when my father told me
But still - ostracism is a form of abuse - and my mother was into emotional abuse - I call my sister TS - Toxic Sister - and I have no idea what I did to cause all this - but if you are being treated in a similar manner and it sounds as if you are - you don't deserve that
One thing - regardless of how people treat you - you are worthy of being treated properly - and just because other people behave doesn't mean you have done anything to deserve that.
My dd has her moments - she is okay today - which is good -
You are not alone - we can have a Lonely Onlies Thread - who's is volunteering to start it? - and of course - no one is excluded - people can be lost and discarded even with a family living with them
You are not worthless -
I am glad you found us - very glad
Decadian

Re: Sleeping too much
Hi everyone .... 😊
@Former-Member @Decadian
I found the chorus for the song you were talking about earlier .....
I cannot come to the banquet,
don't trouble me now.
I have married a wife; I have bought me a cow.
I have fields and commitments that cost a pretty sum.
Pray, hold me excused, I cannot come.
Its from Luke 14:12-24 - The Parable of the Great Banquet
❤️❤️

Re: Sleeping too much
Thank you for welcoming me on this site and I'm glad you are much better for it . Looks like we both have lots in common re family issues I wouldn't know what mum or dad means tho my dad is dead now , I also have 5 brothers who only care how much money they have to each other with there spoilt wives so you may say TS how do I call 5 selfish brothers & sisterinlaws???
I had no support from any of them all my life but betrayal and heart ache , tho other way around me been the only sister I would run drop of a hat if any of them needed me . I been alone so long I get it when you say how you felt during that Easter , I'm alone every Christmas , New Years Easter that it never bothered me much before except now last Christmas got to me and so far it's been another hell of a year I'm fearing if I will make it up to this Christmas alone again .. Do you know when your tired of been tired ?? That feeling of hopelessness and even tired of that?? I'm sorry just drinking to much wine atm probably saying stuff I don't know make sense??? Anyhow try have a good night
Thank you again for the response and kindness .
