UGH! Reasons why...

I need to bring my anxeity meds with me wherever I go.

Why do people make your personal decisions like an insult on them.  When it has nothing to do with them and it is something you need to do for yourself.  They try their hardest to make you feel guilty for this.  I have been tense all morning and I have not been able to concentrate on my job.  Regardless on how they feel, I own what I have choosen and it is something very important to me. I have been working through these issues for about 15 years now and I am ready to make my moves.  I guess it just hurts that they can be so selfish and think about themselves.  And it is becoming more and more clearer, the relationship you though you had, is not there.

Sorry, just had to vent.

On the light side, I can't keep my pants on.  I am afraid I am going to moon someone....

Melissa,

You have me LMAO. Go ahead and moon them...it may make you feel better.

On a more serious note, I am sorry you are around selfish and unsupportive people.  I wish you nothing but the best.  Just look out for yourself and your loved ones and try your best to tune them out.  Some be be jerks, some may be ******** and most are just selfish jerks.  Try and let it roll off of your back or go in one ear and out the other.  We are here for ya!

Love ya,
Tam

The sad thing, this person is a loved one.  Someone in my family. But it is about me and my little family and make decisions that is right for us and for myself.

It could be.  I am not sure.  This person has lot of issues they need to work through and needs to learn to let go an not control everything.  I am a very open person and don't mind talking about it. But since the choice and decision is so new and I am still figuring out what moves I want to make, I am still very vaulnarable with it and don't want to put it out there jsut yet.  I am sure within the week I will be able to share publically this once I have done what I want to do.  I just not ready to share it the public in this type of forum. KWIM? Privetly I have no problem throwing it up. (that is what I call venting)

Hey pants falling off is wonderful. Maybe they will shut up for a couple of minutes if you do end up mooning them. Thats just my thought though. LOL. Always know we will be here for you though

Melissa do not let others tell you what to think or do you know what is right for you. I understand that it is a love one but in my opinion you have nothing to be guilty about you are doing what is best for you. I for one am very proud of what you have done so far and you have come a long way to be a more healthier person. More than you know people can be so selfish and selfcentered. You can come here and vent all you want.
As far as your pants not staying on showing you that you are doing it and should be proud. I can understand that because I to am having them start to fall off but it is not from weight loss and much as inches.
I AM SO PROUD OF YOU!!!!!!!!!!

A lot of times this happens to me also.  Especially with my mom.  I think a lot of people are afraid that our situations, whatever they may be will turn out badly, similar to something to something they experienced and they try so hard to "help" us find the way so that we don't end up in a bad situation.  I recently had to tell my mom that her negativity was a problem and made me uncomfortable with her.  Hoping things get better with you.

Congrats on the pants issue.  Time for a belt or new pants.

It is unfortunate that often it is those who we are closest to, such as family, who make us the most unhappy.
Keep surrounding yourself with those who understand...US! Pack those meds, and drop those drawers!
