...I just get so down.? I shouldn't I know because there are plenty of people out there with real problems. Life really is a struggle though and what for?? Four years ago I left a 16 year relationship, packed my kids and left... I'm supposed to graduate in a few months but since starting school I've let myself go and now I hate myself. But I shouldn't be complaining I should DO something about it...Why is hanging onto the past so easy to do...I should be excited about this time in my life after working so hard but I just seem to focus on the negative. And who wants to be around that kinda person?? I keep waiting for some affirmation from my ex that I've done well and been a good mother on my own but that's just silly because he's been a slacker Dad since I left and treated me horribly. So I don't why his opinion is so important to me?! Sorry for the post but like I said I just needed to vent without bothering my family....
 
I would start going to church more, God helps build your self esteem when you follow his word and when you pray if you are praying for a righteous subject he will give you comfort and you will know in your heart he loves and cares for you.
 
Well, affirmation from a stranger isn't quite the same, but:

You are amazing. Just from this short post, I see that you are a strong and awesome person. Don't let yourself go. If you can afford it, do something for yourself! Get a manicure, get a massage, buy a new outfit, or buy a tub of ice cream, and don't share with the kids, hahah. I would also recommend that you start to either vent to your family occasionally, or you find a pastor or a therapist who you CAN vent to. But in all reality, to give you some affirmation. YOU ARE AWESOME! Remember that...even if I am a total stranger:)
 
Everyone needs to vent now and then.
I know how you feel,believe me.
I wish i had a friend i can talk to,I do ,but dont want to bother them with my problems either.
If i vent to my family its like im just **tching again.
But hey,dont give me reason to right?
Just think things can only get better,if we make it happen:)
 
I'm sorry, that must be very rough. Try praying more...it'll help! Also, think about if one of your kids was in your situation...what advice would you give them? Take that advice and take care of you! Good luck :-)
