Teena, I'm so sorry you're struggling.  I have no magic words of wisdom, just know I'm here if you need me.

Thanks Steph.  Just there are days I feel like the world is closing in around me and today is one of those days.  I feel like such a baby.  But I knew I could come here and no one would think any less of me.  At work I have to put on this face and it's nice to be able to let that go.  You are truly a great friend.  I'm thankful to have you in my life even if I don't see you as much as I would like to.

Thank you Donna.  I serve a mighty God and I know through prayer I will get through this time and be even stronger to face the next one.

Teena,

I've been were you are and have the t-shirt to prove it.  I will keep you in my special prayers.  Please lean on us, don't be afraid to come to us.  I have done my fair share of leaning as of late and know that there are plenty of strong shoulders here.

You are loved.

Teena:

I have shared on here that I am a recovering alcoholic - I chose to go into a 28 day treatment program in May and have not had a drink since then. One of the things that my counselor there kept HAMMERING into my head was that I HAD to learn to love myself and do for myself FIRST, before I could love anyone else or do effectively for them.
As a wife and mother - and those being the two most important elements of my life - it has been hard to learn how to do that. But, I have had to change in order to survive and to continue to be the wife and mother (and in March a grandmother for the first time) that I want to be.
Sometimes the best gift we can give our loved one is to do for ourselves and tell them No.

Thank you Anne.  I know I have to do it.  But isn't it strange how we feel when you take care of ourselves that we are letting our family down?  It's just crazy.  I am working hard to learn to put myself first.
