My main goal for 2012 and for this week is to avoid having a total nervous breakdown!...So I'm letting myself cry and cry and cry so I won't get all "bottled-up." (Or end up sick from all my repressed emotions.)...I need to work on imagining some type of life and future for myself but it's hard right now. Everything depends on what happens with my son...I hope my son is able to fully recover. I hope remnants of his brain tumor don't grow back again. Right now my whole life is in limbo and I don't have any control over what happens with my son... I can't afford to have a nervous breakdown. I have to "carry on" and stay strong for my son and for myself and for all of our cats who depend on us!...My son is all I have left. My husband and my older son are both gone now...I hope 2012 is a better year for us and for everyone. Maybe it will be a year for miracles and positive "turn-arounds" for all of us. I sure hope so anyway!
I no longer bother setting goals for new years because I never achieve these goals Lately my depression has gotten worse I dread getting up in the morning and I hate looking at myself in the mirror and I always look down when I walk in public I feel like everyone is staring at me My medications don't help at all Hopefully with time it will get better but unfortunately I have my doubts
Amber, sorry you are so depressed. I was extremely depressed last year. So, I made a goal to work on the things in my life that made it so intolerable. I identified one thing, and I focused on that, and it was resolved. So, just think about one thing...everything can change.
I will stop eating sugary foods and this time I won't start eating them again--I can't control myself at all so they have to go. More protein.
That's my main one but I also plan to find an alzheimer's support group after the NY so that I can get some help to know how to handle mom's condition. A new job would be nice but not sure if the stress of job hunting on top of all the other stuff is a good idea. Maybe being off sugar will help.
Yeah, really. Sometimes I think the only goal I have is to maintain employment. Not a bad goal.
