    Default Feel like I am having a mental breakdown

    So much has happened. 2 days ago my husbands grandmother passed away. She was like a mother to him and me. Its been occasional meltdowns since then. I had a huge meltdown today when my older kids were at school. I just lost it. I refuse to get help for it too. I am putting everyone around me in hell. I act like everything is alright, smiling as much as I can but I am in tears on the inside. I was already depressed to begin with, this just adds the icing to the cake. I cammed tonight and made $0 and my clips suffered horribly this month. Can I ask for a do-over for February? Every part of it sucked. I got ripped off and I almost got my water shutoff due to financially hurting this month. Can I scream now?

    Sorry to hear about your husbands grandmother and to hear you're having these challenges.

    If things aren't looking up in a couple of weeks maybe you should put your pride aside and let someone you trust help you out. There is no need to suffer in silence.

    Hope it gets better for you.

    I'm so sorry for your loss. Talking to someone can help so much. Doesn't have to be a professional, just someone that you trust and listen to you and tell you everything is going to be alright. Sending many hugs to you. PM me if you need to. I've received lots of good advice and comfort from the people here. Start a new thread in the ladies section if you need to and just rant and rage. Putting your raw feelings in post is very therapeutic too.

    You can scream. You can rip pillows open, punch (SOFT!) objects, etc.. Writing down every problem and its' potential solution tends to work well for me when the rage phase is over. I admit, it's better for those who struggle with anxiety-worse case scenario kind of people. A better solution for you-since it seems like things are just happening that are out of your control-would be listing each problem, writing how frequently or infrequently it occurs(this helps esp. with deaths), and what things will change because of it, and what good will come out of it(if none, how your life will benefit once the situation is over-like with a death or.....I don't know, a car fire?). I'm a logical, chart loving nerd. My anxiety lets my brain run off a logical course and makes me anticipate the worst. Written out realities vs. Fears, charts, etc- they calm me. I actually have a box of worries on index cards. Problems that could happen and solutions. Helps to mix in unlikely, funny problems-being able to laugh during stressful times helps me, while it may annoy you. In which case, ignore me lol.

    thanks ladies for the support. I took a couple days off so I could recoop. I am such a rollercoaster right now. Planning for a funeral with my father in law for this coming weekend. SO NOT looking forward to it. Funerals...just make me so sad.
