I will be starting with counselling and the psychologist just after mid january.
I had a breakdown at the end of October. I wanted to kill myself so badly but knew it wasn't 'right' (poor dd and dh) and so sought help from my Gp, who was brilliant and passed me on to the mental health crisis team and so on.
I had a breakdown because my mother is a nut narcissist (trust me, I'm not just being all american about this!) and I have an unpleasant history of being abused, being date raped, being bullied, I have no clue who my dad is, my step dad was an alcoholic creep when I was growing up, nick named me 'the little bitch' and made my life hell. Funny really as I adored him at first
I know I seem articulate and even bouncy and happy on the boards here but I am dying inside and I can't keep piling this on to my husband. Somehow I have to make it to the 18th of January in one piece.
I have been trained to think that I am utterly worthless, an annoyance, mad / crazy, 'mentally abnormal' and the rest and that training has stuck. I know that I can heal myself with counselling and doing 'work' on myself but what is holding me back is that deep down I don't believe that I am worth it / deserve it.
I have a huge amount of rage and sadness in me, I want my dd and dsd to have a good Christmas without me going fucking nuts over something / collapsing in floods of tears. I am on propanolol for anxiety and I don't think I can take any valium other medication with that.
Sorry this is so long. Can anyone hold my hand for a bit? (not right until 18 jan obviously!)
