Please send some good thoughts my way

Posted : 4/1/2008 9:37:26 PM

I don't have the time or energy to write everything, but I am wondering if anyone could just send some good vibes and prayers my way. I'm truly not asking for sympathy or pity; just a positive thought. Some of you may remember my post a couple months or so back about my brother. Well, he came back as I said he would and then left a week later. Then he came back *again* a few weeks ago and is still living here. I cannot deal with him anymore. I am not strong enough. Tonight I am going to sleep in the car because I cannot be in the same house as him. I cannot take any more emotional abuse. I am exhausted and am going to talk to my psychologist about going on anxiety and depression meds. I need them because I can't do this on my own, and I don't want to turn to drinking or smoking because I'm not like that. But I'm afraid if I don't do something I will start turning to alcohol and stuff. I'm finding it hard to believe in God anymore, at least his mercy and justice.

I'm really sorry for the depressing nature of this post. I just don't know what else to do and needed to vent. Thanks.

IS Girl - your parents have to know something is wrong when you are sleeping in the car. Where are the dogs? What have your parents said about your fear of your brother??

Sending good energy for a quick and peaceful resolution to all of that! ~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+

Wow. You shouldn't have to live in the car in order to feel safe from your brother. If your parents won't listen, is there someone else you could confide in ... a teacher, counselor, someone at a women's shelter?

I remember you thread. You have my most positive vibes and prayers coming your way to help you through the night, but please please please tell someone that can help you first thing in the morning. You shouldn't have to deal with this yourself. You shouldn't have to deal with this at all!

I've been there, and I'm very sorry for what you're having to go through. You ARE strong enough, and you can and will get through this, because quite simply you don't have a choice! I hope you get someone to help you soon, and if you ever need to PM a stranger to vent, feel free. I know what it feels like to be afraid of living in your own home, and I know the toll it takes on your mental and physical well-being. Best wishes to you - hope you have a doggy with you for comfort tonight :)

Oh, dear. That sounds hard, harder than anyone should have to deal with. I'm thinking the most positive vibes I can for your situation.

IS, I don't know the whole story but whatever it may be I am sending good vibes and prayers your way!
You are NOT alone! Everyone here on dog.com is with you. Any and all venting is understandable. I (and I'm sure others are too) am with you 100%! If there is any way I can help just let me know.

I am a little unsure about the situation with your parents.....sorry, but I didn't see your last thread......do they not know that you have problems with your brother?

I really hope and pray that things will turn out for the best......

I didn't see the earlier post, but I really don't even need to to understand this is a completely unacceptable situation. You have my thoughts, energy and support - and my most urgent hope someone nearby will step up to the plate and be your champion in this situation.
