How Are You Feeling Right Now?

Still struggling with intrusive thoughts. They are getting nastier. My brain keeps telling me to kms and everyone else will be better off without me. It says I am stupid, coward, loser, failure, hopeless, and lazy. It says that everyone who knows me will eventually hate me and not want anything to do with me. I’m disputing these thoughts, but damn it takes energy.
It must be very hard to live with these thoughts. I know that we all have them at some point and I hope you can come out of this Lumber Jack. If I didn't take medicine I don't know how I'd feel. I was wondering if you considered that route?

i appreciate your words... i am not. i have been trying to log in, however i don't seem to have words i can say. n i would rather not just sit n take up space when other's can be of use and can use the help.
you're right other people can use help but all of us deserve help when needed and that includes you. sometimes even if we don't have the words just talking to someone helps

Frustrated

I've been doing some video editing on my laptop, saving it to an external hard drive, then backing that up to a micro memory card in a second computer, my newly repaired (?) notebook. I've just found that almost all of the files on the memory card are corrupt. I think the notebook may not have the bandwidth to transfer the large video files from the hard drive. The memory card (512 gig), is too large to use in my laptop. I can use the laptop to do the backup, but will have to buy smaller (256 gig) memory cards, and then have 2 basically useless 512 gig ones. Or buy another external hard drive.

And the notebook has an annoying problem of the cursor occasionally freezing in place, and none of the mouse buttons or keyboard keys work, until I let the battery completely run down, then recharge the battery and restart it that way.

I'm not very good with all that stuff Lefty but I hope you can get it sorted out.
 
Anxious, frustrated, scared, tense

After having 3 cancellations of my homeowners insurance (technically "decline to renew the policy"), I've received notice from my current insurer that the property will be inspected, and the results may cause a change to the policy. I'm anticipating that the inspector will find the same damage that caused the previous cancellations, and with likely the same result. The mortgage company has already threatened to provide insurance, but at a higher cost. If that happens, I may not be able to afford my house payments, and have to leave.
I know, a lot of "ifs", from a racing mind

peace

That sounds really stressful Lefty, no wonder you're all stressed out. Hate insurance companies. Please keep us posted. *console

Yesterday I was feeling a little insecure at work, then a "friend" didn't invite me to her small birthday gathering but that's ok. The day was made better because I picked up a pound of flounder, cooked for my niece and children and we all sat around the table to eat. I know how priceless those times are.
those times are priceless and by the way i love flounder

i'm sorry that you are going through this process. a lot of places around the country are getting policies to not renew or cancel. this is because they want to collect high premiums and pay out a lot less. the only thing i can suggest is before the inspection call your states insurance bureau to see if you have options

As above, the worry about your home is so destabilising. I hope it's not as bad as you think and things will be ok
