Malaise. Or “your late 40s.”
Thanks for acknowledging what probably many of us feel. I feel it more than ever before in my new job.
Numb?
Meaning you’re feeling more yourself. Or sinking more than before?
Broken. Thats the only way I can think of to describe myself. Absolutely broken, with no idea how to fix myself. I’m 51. I try so hard to be good to everyone. I worked my butt off as a single mom to give my children a nice place in a nice town. I was a loyal girlfriend, only to be cheated on, publicly. Last month, my 32 year old son punched me in the face 5 times while telling me he was going to “f” me up, he later admitted he is jealous that I have an amazing relationship with his five year old son, whom he also abuses physically and mentally, and over the last year, as I finally went to the doctor because of many symptoms including all over extreme pain, constant utter exhaustion, stiffness, incontinence, never wanting to leave the house or get out of bed, sweating profusely, headaches, blurry vision, pins and needles in my feet — oh so many problems…. So my current diagnosis’s are. Type 2 diabetes, super high blood pressure, I need both knees replaced, spinal stenosis, degenerative disc disease, arthritis, edemia, anemia, neuropathy in my feet, extreme sleep apnea, fibromyalgia, heart murmur and morbid obesity….. I’ve worked for 20 years in an extremely demanding physical job and I have been out hurt for over a year…. Broken. I’m absolutely broken. I wish you luck, and I didn’t mean to bring u down or be a story topper…. But I feel you. Ur not alone…. Prayers and hugs.
None of the “like” icons here provide an appropriate response. I’ll just say please get the help you need (if finding it not easy, but don’t give up) and NOBODY deserves abuse. Make the calls you need to make.
