homeless and helpless

asked by neener2007 on 18 October 2007 12:03


I was in a car accident it Feb. Since then I've been divorced, bankrupt, and disabled. I've been diagnosed w/ PTSD, and RSD. RSD is a cronic pain disorder. I've been living with my sister and her husband for the last 6 months. Now I've been diagnosed by my family as the "broken little sister"! My family is always telling me that I'm wrong! No matter what I say or feel, I'm always wrong! If they don't think I can take care of myself, how can I take care of my 17 yr old who wants to live with me when I'm on my feet? I've done all I can do to get out of this house, but nothing is working out! I don't know how much more I can stand! I just keep out of the way and in the basement! I have no friends to talk to, so I thank God for this link. I'm at the end of my rope!

I know how that feels. When life gets you down, people often think it's your fault and blames you for it.

The first step to not feel helpless is to get a job. It may be painful to start working again, but the emotional pain of feeling helpless probably is more damaging. When you become independent again, no one will think anything bad of you.

Good luck!
