Thought I'd make a post for people who want to get anything off their chest, maybe something you've never said out loud before, or something you can say directly to who you want.

I'll start-
When I was in school, I must have been 14ish, a boy in my class who I occasionally spoke to but he was a bit of a class clown, told me he knew I walked home after school and he was going to hide in a bush and rape me after school. - I laughed it off at first, but I was terrified, he was know for being an asshole. But I had to ring all of my family members in an desperate attempt to get a lift because I was so scared but never told them why. I never told anyone but it plays on my mind a lot, it's been 8 years and I remember being sat in the English class with him after he said it. I remember exactly where he sat, exactly what his hair was like that day. He also made a point of groping me outside our science class. I never spoke up and I wonder if it happens to girls now in school. Maybe it's because I have a 15 year old sister in school and my face literally gets hot with anger at the thought that could have been her, or worse it could happen to her on any day.
I should have spoke up but I didn't and now it plays on my mind all of the time.
I've never been one to have the back bone to speak up for myself in any situation.

Feel free to post anything that's been bothering you.

Yes I was driving my exh to the funeral of of his lovely friend who took his own life ...and I was also giving a lift to his mate...someone I always found vulgar and rude...never liked him at all.

The mate made a real disparaging remark about the dead friend...I totally and utterly regret to this very day that I never stopped the car and said get out, get out now.

I would do it in a heartbeat today.

Everyone seems to think you're lovely but you're actually a bit of a bitch. You excluded me from your wedding and use me at your convenience. Well you're not co convient to me anymore so bye bye

That when friends tell me I should be dating by now (I lost my dh 5yrs ago) I want to scream at them that that won’t make me miss him any less and you can’t replace one person with another. I want to rage at them that they will never understand that as their husbands are all still alive. And I want to ask do they tell our friend who lost her little boy around the same time that she just needs to have another baby and it will all be alright; or how quickly would they be back on the dating scene if they lost their husbands without warning.

I of course will never say any of those things and I feel guilty for even thinking that about our friend but it does smack that there is an inequality in people’s perceptions of grief, loss and returning to ‘normal’ when my life will never feel normal again.

I so desperately want our IVF to work this time

I asked for help which I rarely do but the answer was no, younger brother was bringing new girlfriend to yours while he went the football match.
You didn't visit our DD who was born prematurely till she was 6 months old.

I hate I have got myself into such a position that I mostly don’t leave the house. Certainly not alone. I love walks with my dog.

I feel I have a pitiful existence and I am a waste of life. I wish I wasn’t so scared of change, everything feels so impossible. I keep telling myself something will ‘click’ and it never does.

I wish my poor parents could talk about me to friends and be proud of the person I am.

I can’t chsnge anything I’m far far too scared. I can’t just snap out of it I’ve tried so hard.

I don’t know how to fix it. I don’t know how to ask for help. If I seek medical help I’m given an antidepressant and sent on my way.

I feel so trapped in my own head and I’ll never get out of this rut. I try accept it but I do know I deserve more. But nothing will ever change.

I hate feeling like such a pathetic waste.

Never told anyone else this.
