Kathy Jo, I know you have experienced some mental issues in the past, but
how did you get so bad? Were you refusing basic personal care services? I
know I have met at least your father, I feel you come from a supportive
family probably willing to do anything for you.
I know I have experienced my own issues especially last year. Sure I was
bent out of shape, and tried counseling for a while until realizing it was
what I was dealt with, and I have a lot more positive stuff to focus on and
several people who care about me and in return I care about them. Most don't
have my blood and even my last name, but they are all I got at the moment.
No one's life is 100%, and I don't know why we even try or who thought of
that in the first place, that's a load of garbage, we have to be happy with
what we have and focus on the positive and less on the negative.
I only quit counseling because I was tired of continuously reliving what
went on with a certain member of my family; it was out of my control in the
first place. Once I got this out of my system, I became alive again. I'm not
suggesting for anyone to do what I did, I just have a lot of friends and
personal wisdom.
Thanks,
Anthony
