I don’t understand why I am even here anymore! I live every moment of my life in pain. I can barely even care for myself anymore. My feet are numb, yet hurt so bad I don’t want to ever be on them. I no longer have a running vehicle. I can’t afford to buy food that is good for me and would help me feel better. I barely survive…
I am grateful for my home! I thank God every day for it. Though, my mind feels under constant seize. Sad, lost and alone. I have chose to remain just me, as I have found I no longer am able to trust another, let alone feel love. I have no desire to be with another man, but I do wish my best friend lived here. To have someone to talk too… Yet, I find myself preferring to be alone. Having been married three times and having the last two cheat and leave me, surely has added to all of this. I found men all seemed to just want sex, so I stopped applying make up or doing my hair. I was always afraid to be alone. Now I have come to a place where I do not want to be with another, something I never thought possible. Though, it is most likely due to no longer having a uterus or ovaries, hormones…
Since 1995, I have dealt with Anxiety, Panic and at times Agoraphobia. It took me a few years to teach myself to not notice other people, so I could go to the store without having full blown panic attacks. I have had Depression my entire life. Even as a small child, I recall feeling very sad and empty…
My two greatest fears were being abandoned and being in pain. Now I live with both of those. So, find a way to get passed your fears or you will surely live them! Now, I wake to horrid pain and spend every waking moment in pain, wishing I would not ever wake again. Barely able to even care for myself or to do the basic chores required of a home. I am on edge, irritable and empty. Even noise seems to drive me mad in my mind! I need it quiet, but my adult son lives with me and when he is home it is rarely quiet. He will play music loudly in his room, causing my head to feel like it will surely explode. I do not like to ever leave the house, which I only do when I have a doctors appointment and once a month to obtain groceries with the little I have. I know eating only naturely occurring food helps with much of my issues, but I only have $150 a month to buy food and household items with. When you eat only naturely occurring foods, you need a lot of them to sustain you…
I am constantly reminded that the rich can obtain what they need and the poor are left to suffer. I can not see the point of letting myself suffer every moment of my life, yet I could never end my own life. I was on my death bed in the summer of 2014, I had a huge surgery to save my life! For what? I keep telling myself that I am here for a reason and one day I will have the answers. As if dealing with a great deal of pain wasn’t bad enough, I also have a depressed and lost mind. My husband left me a month after that surgery, when I discovered messages from him to his friend stating he was seeing a girl at work. I asked him to come home and talk, to do something to save the marriage. He came home only to pack his things and leave, all while I was recovering from a huge surgery that saved my life…
I think of how I wasted all the years when my children were young and when I actually had a family. I never felt happy, everything was always a great effort for me. Constantly trying to do the right thing. I never allowed myself to enjoy the family I had. Consumed by worry, scared I would loose one of my children. Only to have my oldest taken from me in a car accident when he was only 16! A life wasted to worry, fear, stress, depression, panic and anxiety. Then I was beaten by a gang of men who were going after my neighbor in 2010. That was the beginning of chronic pain, that has become worse each and every year…
So, I ask this, “Why I am here?” Surely, I do not deserve so much pain and suffering. I spent a lifetime choosing what was right, good and just. No one deserves to be in constant pain and to have a depressed mind with flares of Anxiety and Panic, no matter what they have done or have not done………….
