like i'm slipping fast like turkey shit down the chute. my health is taking a hard hit lately and i have been trying to hide it. my eldest son knows and i couldn't hide it from him, i thought i had. so now he wants me to remain calm and not make my physical/emotional health any worse. i know he is right but how can i not stress. i'm going to talk to my doctor about increasing my lorazepam for a couple of months. right now i'm on the edge of the abyss , but i am who i am and that same fighting spirit is still there

Sorry to hear this Mike. Be sure and let your doctor know about loss of your two dogs and need to find a new apartment in a hurry. Those are adding a lot more stress, both physical and emotional. May help to get him to give you more lorazepam. Be sure and set aside a few hours each day to just relax. Maybe focus and the many joys life has brought to you.

Please do keep fighting. And if assisted living becomes necessary, look for a place where both you and your wife can live.

You have my hopes and prayers for the best for you and your wife with the home search and with luck the lawyer will have some good advice. Things should never go so wonky for folks and it is especially tough on those of us that are getting older and treated as disposable because of that age...

My foot hurts, and I'm not exactly sure what's wrong. It reminds me of the pain I had when the doctor said I might have plantar fasciitis, but that was worse and I could barely walk at all. I'm nervous this will get worse too. Back then I didn't work, so it wasn't as big a deal. It mostly went away last time because I went to urgent care and they saw potential evidence that I might have had a small fracture in my foot so they put a boot on it and gave me crutches. I stayed off it for like a week or two, and that helped a lot.

Physically sick from mold in my apartment..
Mentally taxed from my apartment complex threatening to sue me if I break my lease.
Overwhelmed. Feeling trapped.

If there is mold in your apartment, your landlord has not honored their side of the contract. Don’t let them walk on you. I don’t know enough about your situation to advise, but surely mold is a clear failure of the landlord to maintain the property. That’s a health risk and the property owner’s responsibility.

Urrgh! I feel angry that they are threatening you for what is clearly their problem! You have rights as a tenant. Assuming you are in the USA, rental contracts are subject to state laws. Google tenants rights and your state to see what recourse might be available. Again, I am just a random guy on the interwebs, but this is not your problem.

Ok, anxiety is very mild. Never was it truer that state drives story. I noticed the weeds area already starting to grow in the front and back yard/garden so I went out to spray them as I haven't time to pull them up today. While out there I looked at the wall. The wall in my mind that was crumbling to dust and falling to bits resulting in complete collapse wasn't there, I saw a mostly OK wall. Needs a little bit doing but it doesn't look in mortal danger. That's one thing that's been bothering me for 3 weeks suddenly no longer a major issue in my head.

WTF. I'm aware this may change again if the anxiety starts to spiral.

I really do need a lawnmower though. And to keep on top of the damn weeds. It will at least save me £500 which is what it's cost the last few years when I've had to pay guys with chainsaws to clear a summer's worth of neglect.

Heya Mike, you can always message if you want to talk. I don't post all that much but I'm around here and there. Don't let anything bad happen to our Mike.
