Misti, I hope they messed up the address on your check and it comes to my house "made out to me!" You know, I am just KIDDING............ Everything will get better in due time. It can't get much worse.

Please can you believe my nieces dad said they didnt want them staying with me cause then he would have to pay child support what a GIANT ARSE he is. Trust me the 100/mo for 2kids wont touch what it will cost. The other dad doesnt pay nothing so child support was the last of my worries!!!! JERK!

yes, i can my mom refuses to give up "temporary custody" of my oldest because she will lose 400/month, even though she lives with me my ex refuses to get a real job, even though he is only ordered to pay 125/month for THREE kids. gotta work under the table, ya know...don't want kids to get any money so, what's gonna happen?

man you put a couple of good days, then add no money, and i always have a bad day i think as long as i have money in my pocket, i have stuff to do, so i don't think about it.....when i go broke, i always start plotting. i really need that check to come today, so i can get off this thing.;.... have been thinking about going to the er this am, only don't have any money, lol, or really the energy to do it, but the thoughts are there...as well as calling various docs....only thing is i know it would just make me mad if i got a scrip cause then i have no money to fill it just doesn't make sense...when i have money to fill the things, i don't think about them cause i'm busy buying everything else rough day here, hope it gets better soon....

And just when I thought it couldn't get any worse!!!!! Somebody please explain to me how you "CAN'T" pay child support these days? Not that I would NOT want spend money on my daughters, I want/have to take care of MY kiddos. Nobody doesn't have to tell me to or make me do it. But if I didn't, I would probably get in a real bad "fix" with our Texas Attorney's General office, and you ALWAYS lose those. Heck, them suckers would TAKE my paycheck, plus interest!

I hear you. I think the same sometimes. Chemical relief sounds good. i am trying to get past the point of letting my finances have so much power over me. I have had some of the best times in my life broke. I have had some incredible things happen and my needs have always been met. Don't quit now..we never know what is around the corner. It may not be a financial windfall of course but good things happen when we stay clean right?? Hey I am saying this for myself today.. Why you say f it girl?? love nor |

Misti...there are still times I get po'd because I "can't" drink. Fact is, I can, but I'm choosing not to. Somehow it makes me feel better. Please be strong, if for no other reason than those smart little kiddos!!!

That caveat notwithstanding... Consider: There are 60 million woman, (probably more) that would give their eye teeth to have your intelligence, physical attributes, and yes, (trouble I am sure, much more than I know, but the purest, more beautiful, love, at times...), Children. So, you old-timer here, don't mean to be a highfalootin' newcomer, encroaching, but...what would make you want to go to ER sans feeling sorry for yourself? Still, and again, no one knows and no one can judge others. Just a thought for you, an intelligent lady, to see if it is worth self-rumination. Waldo P.S. Misty you know ALL of us understand. However, a lil' tough love doesn't anyone..... |

| Thanks, Waldo
for having the guts to say what I was "sort of" thinking. Misti, you KNOW how much I admire you. At least I hope you do. We all have those "terrible, horrible, No Good, very Bad Days". Sometimes we have many in a row. I know; I've had a few of them myself recently. But there is one thing I know for sure: going to the er and getting a script for vicoden or ultram is not going to help. In fact, it's only going to make things way worse for you. Hang in there, darlin'. Please stop and really think about this: your daughter was accepted into the gifted program at her school. That is cause for a celebration!! Don't feel like it? Well, pretend like you do because SHE needs you to. Go out and buy (with the $10 you scraped together) a cake, put on some candles, and have a little party for her. If that doesn't change your attitude, try something else. YOU can do this. Drugs can't. I know it's hard. I also know you can do it...sober. Today, tomorrow and all the days to come. I believe in you. I hear you chicks from Texas are really tough... chichi |

what would make me go to the er? same as everyone else to not be mad for a few hours to be happy and get my house cleaned to just not feel like i can't handle another second in my own skin for a day or two just to have that feeling come over me one more time where everything in the world feels right i am self ruminating, that is why i did not go today, i don't want to. but i do want to use, i just don't want to expend the energy and to be honest right now i am mad at my mom for having 60 hydros and 100 oxycontin and not offering me any when i am like this i am just in my addict right now, just disregard everything i am saying, i guess i'm sure i'll be ok, i always am

Misti, I am sorry you're feeling bad but hope that you don't follow through with trying to get drugs. Part of the process of recovery is dealing with the ups and downs and life and not every day is a good one, that's for sure. Hang in there!

| Oh, gotcha...
I just spent the last few days with my teenage son, taking him to visit a college, doing the "right thing". It was a disaster from the minute we left until the minute we returned. Well, actually, it hasn't really stopped but I'm staying further away from him...ha ha! Okay, well, I was trying to be helpful...never mind. If you get a chance to celebrate, that's good. If not, a big "atta girl" will suffice. But, trust me, sweetie, neither vicoden nor ultram will help you with any of this. Being numb for a day or so doesn't really help anything; it only makes you feel worse about everything. Been there, done that. You know all this. You just need to be reminded, maybe? Stay in touch with all your friends here. I'm a bit older than you and I've said many, many times: "I get by with a little help from my friends." Lean on us, Misti. We'll help you get by. chichi |

Mikiglen, That 'can't handle another second in my skin' feeling is a ROUGH one to endure. It can make you crazy..... Always made me want to "run to somewhere, or something,.............. since I had already pulled out all my hair!." But, within time, even that feeling goes away. Good luck enduring,
