Hi Waves,

I'm sorry you're having such a rough time. It makes me even more grateful and amazed that you were able to reach out through your suffering and be such a gigantic practical and emotional support to me.

You really are stronger than you think.:hug:

Dear Waves,

What you describe almost sounds like someone who is there for a short visit for a few hours. --- it might not be appropriate for a guest to open the windows, change the lights, make a mess, turn on fans without asking, . . . move furniture (so to speak) , . . .
The space is not yours.
That is hard.

If you had your own apt and you rented a room to a roommate you would make accomodations and set up rules and boundaries that were agreeable to you and to the roommate.

You're a guest it seems.
This is difficult and I don't see an answer right now.
I do think that you can find your way out of the puzzle in some fashion at some point.

hmmm... you are hyperthyroid? you do know that thyroid problems (hypo or hyperactive) can cause disturbances with mood and with sleep?
hmm... your physical response to stress might cause more to appear - only they wouldn't disappear again after you feel better. if they disappear magically again, then perhaps what is happening is that when you are stressed you notice them more - so they seem more numerous? do you think that could be it?

Dear Bizi
 

Hi :)

not sure if this was meant for me or Donna but yes i am sleeping. i get migraines once a month - usually in the span of about a week. the rest of the time i am normally ok. i just got done with this month so i am ok at the moment. :) my mood is a bit better too. migraines mess with my mood too - before and after the headache phase as well as during it.

:hug:

i hope that all three of your kitties are happy and healthy again now. that was a bit of a scare with Harriett. :o

Dear Mari
 

yepppp! i do feel like a guest at times. i have more freedom than a guest but yes some of the limitations are like that.

right. my parents would too if they had a room i could have. but there isn't one. it is no picnic for them either, having me camp out in the living room. we all try to do the best we can... but the best we can can still be uncomfortable. i have always had my own room - even when i was a child. so it is quite hard for me. as an adult i lived alone in an apartment a lot. and was used to having multiple own-rooms. what a luxury that seems now.
thank you for the encouragement and... i sure hope so! :o i am going to try.

A bit late!
 

Waves,
Sorry I haven't responded to your post, no excuse just sorry!

I hope things are going a little bit better for you! I know the housing situation has not changed but I was hoping your stress level had gone down! I feel for you when you say you have a hard time with watching certain things on tv, I have the same thing when I am stressed out and emotional! I feel like my emotions or nerves are all on the outside of my body! I cant explain it, maybe you know what I mean.

Hi Collinsc! :hug: thanks for the note, and...

yes, you are describing just what i mean when i say that i "feel raw."
