I am just not in a good place today. I am sad and depressed.
Sometimes “LOVE” just isn’t enough. I need security and know things are going to be taken care of. I am 32 years old and I have four children who I am supposed to nurture and be a role model and show them how things should be done and how not to let people walk all over you and how to be a Christian and a good person and be strong and respectful and bla bla bla.
I have a husband who is depressed and lacks motivation to work and support our family. The aspect of doing things with the kids has gotten so much better than it used to be and I know he loves me, but I am still waiting for my knight in shining armor to ride up on his white horse and lead this family to a victorious life. I know that is a silly kid’s fairy tale and all but I would love something that resembles that. My therapist says not to dwell on his flaws, him not having the motivation to work, pay the bills or do anything around the house and the severe depression. I feel so snotty writing this, I know other people deal with so much worse than this. We live beyond our means, we can’t pay our bills and we are not happy! What is my problem???? I have a husband who loves me and I get bent out of shape because I do all the work, but I shouldn’t have to do all of the work. I am so torn, can’t you tell.
In my head I just want to move out into a little apartment and get rid of everything we don’t need (cable, cell phones etc) I sit here and think that will help, but that just gets rid of the stuff. I still have a husband who doesn’t want to do anything and no matter what house or apartment we move to he will still be him. It’s funny how we can so love parts of our spouse and despise other parts of them. But you know there really isn’t much I like about myself…
HELP!!! Make it all stop spinning in my head, I don’t want to have this negative outlook today or any other day.
