Since you were so gracious to reply to me, I'll do the same ...

Yep. I can relate. Although I live alone and know no one in the town I live in currently, I am about as frustrated at times as I've ever been. I find that crying helps, and I do a lot of talking to the walls, television, in fact many inatimate objects that live with me have received several verbal tongue lashings in the last week.

I was just talking to one of my darling daughters on the telephone (all my daughters live thousands of miles away at the moment), and saying the things you just wrote, about how stupidly needy and obselete, and worthless, and lazy, and whatever adjective you want to put there, I feel at the moment...

I really had no idea how much this was going to entail and how long it would take to get on with life after, so I guess that is the most shocking bit for me..

Thank God she answered correctly and told me that this time I would just have to give in to it and do nothing and not feel guilty about it...

So I'll pass that along to you.

You have every right to feel they way you do. And you are not needy, you are simply recovering.. a big difference... it's hard to ask for and to get help sometimes, but sometimes there is no other choice but to do just that.

Now let's see if I can take my own advice and you can too...

Rest, relax, recover...

;D

We ARE a mess. But we are supposed to be a mess! ;D

We just have to roll with it and let time go by...

Hope that helps some...
