To feel fucking sorry for myself. Anyone else?

[TinaTurnipp]

Anyone else just feel fucking sorry for themselves today?

I have woken up with a cold. Just a cold. Except I feel bloody awful, couldn't sleep all night and now have to go to work with a razor blade throat, running nose and listen to clients moan about us daring to be closed over Christmas.

Who else is having a shitty Monday already?

Poor you ABoxersMum but that did make me laugh.

Save me a seat! Currently sitting freezing my arse off waiting for the heating engineer. No hot water or heating since yesterday. Bet he doesn't come until 6pm.

To be honest compared to most people on here I dont really have much to complain about but I just REAALLY want to “fuck off to Fiji” anyway
Please can I come?

Cold and 5 months preggers. I can't shift the damn thing and I can't take anything either. I'm off work however I just couldn't face it nor want to pass this to people before Christmas. So dying in peace ✌️

@FrankUnderwoodsWife Did you read how StrangeLookingParasite was addressed? Basically, don't complain about Brexit even though it really badly effects you family life (ie can't get somewhere to live, residency visa) and you must be really wealthy so actually your complaints don't matter!

I'd rather no one was vitriolic to anyone, but I probably would have responded the same way. It's not about personal attacks on leavers, but a hatred borne of desperation to the 'concept of leave' surely.

I'm not (yet) directly impacted by Brexit, but I hate it. It makes me really, really depressed and sad and sometimes angry. A very close friend married to an EU national has had to make life changing decisions based on this. She's an intelligent and reasonable person, but if I asked her I bet she'd say she hated people who voted leave too.

Currently 24 weeks pregnant with 4 other children at home, really starting to panic about Christmas as I'm still not done and time and funds are running out. I already look and feel 40 weeks pregnant and just want to sleep lol nursery has already finished for Christmas and 4 year old dd has a hospital appointment today. I would absolutely love a seat on the Fiji plane please

Never mind shitty Monday or Tuesday, this whole month so far can kiss my arse.
Heavy cold that won't fuck off, death in the family with a very long drive to go to the funeral and a bollocking from work because time off in December is 'banned' - I told them I'd emailed the rest of the family to ask if they planned on dying could they kindly wait until January when my boss deems it acceptable. The sarcasm didn't go down well.
Freezer broke down, spoiling all the food but luckily no Christmas food as I'm not that organised and costing half of my Christmas fund.
Youngest dog waiting for first season so she can be spayed has now come in season with avengance and the old dog (who is also a bitch) keeps humping her leading to fights - so separate rooms for them 🙄

And to top it off this morning when turning the horses out I got a Welly stuck in the mud but the fucking horse carried on going, dragging foot out of Welly and into mud.
And I've the joy of working 11 nights in the next 14 and a bank account with an echo.
Fiji sounds good!

to all of you struggling and suffering right now.

To be honest compared to most people on here I dont really have much to complain about

There is no complaint too small here!

Tuesday can fuck off too now!

Me too please! Spent my birthday alone, no presents or cards, my eldest hates me and has gone NC. I won't get any xmas presents because no one thinks about me. I have £40 to live on till January 1st. Ex-H is a twat. I have course work to finish for 8th January and I can't face it. Very depressed.

In the hospital for the 8th time in a year with ds2 (recurrent chest infections)
We spent last Christmas, his birthday, my birthday and ds1s birthday in hospital and looks like might spend this Christmas too.

This whole year can fucking do one.

@kateandme
Just for you, we will bring a border collie to entertain you while you loaf around on a lilo with a long drink served in a coconut.

Hopping on board the pity party bus.
Full of cold(not had one in ages, but decides to rock up the week before Xmas). My right nostril keeps ‘zinging’ which is making my eye twitch and water. The dog has just pissed up the Christmas tree. And my microawave meal could only be done in the oven, so I’ve had to wait 50 bastard minutes for a tiny, shitty shepherds pie. Oh and berocca tastes like a bushtucker trial 🤢

I'll come to Fiji please! DD has had a snotty nose for over a month and every bug under the sun from nursery. She had diarrhoea yesterday there so the 48 hour rule in place. Her grandad is helping where he can but a lot of care is still me and DH. I only returned to work last month, my maternity cover had issues galore and time off, now I'm back another member of the team has gone off for at least a month. I'm taking over his portfolio and it's a mess. All of the stuff they've done (or haven't) is coming out of the woodwork resulting in complaints. There's only 3 of us left dealing with shit all round and I should be ploughing through it but am sat on the sofa while DD sleeps on me. I'm putting in extra hours when she's in bed.

I just feel like there's not enough of me to go round. I also have a stinking head cold, on week 2 of it, my ear is blocked with it so I'm getting tinnitus and my tongue is absolutely covered in ulcers.

Those of you having extended periods, can I urge you to get investigated for fibroids. I was fobbed off for six months. My blood was practically orange, my haemoglobin was so low.
Small fry but I've woken up with a massive bastard cold sore on my top lip which is throbbing like a bastard. Feels shitty. I'll happily jump on a plane to Fiji!

Oh shit I just realised, my check engine light came on yesterday I have to ring fecking kia and get it sorted, aaarrgggh!!

Count me in. I'm so sorry that everyone is having a hellish time. Definitely need to go to Fiji with you all.
Adult family driving me bonkers with grabby greedy me me me stuff.

I've just found out that I have been misdiagnosed and have a life changing illness rather than an all clear I was given a couple of months ago. Want to go and choke the hell out of a smarmy smug consultant who appears unable to read an MRI scan report.

Wish that I could make things better for everyone here, but I'm so glad of a safe space to vent, thanks so much.

I'm still feeling sorry for myself - my stomach troubles seem to be resolving, and I have slept a bit better, but now I am full of cold, and just hoping that I will be over the worst of it by Christmas.

UpstartCrow thank you I loved it!

Save me a seat. Since July when adult DD broke her leg the first week of the school holidays (DGC aged 5 & 7), we've had a bereavement, my DIL has PND, my other DIL is off sick with MH problems, DS nearly sliced his thumb off at work, and we've had umpteen cold/tonsilitis/ chicken pox/stomach bugs, rounding the year off with hand foot and mouth currently making its way through the family, 2 adults and 2 DGC and counting.

I'm just recovering from my hideous cold. I'd booked a day's annual leave while the kids were still at school last week so I could finalise buying/wrapping/cards/Xmas menu etc etc. Was supposed have 6 solid hours to Get Shit Done. Shit did not in fact Get Done because my cold was so awful I could barely lift me head.
So now having to Do Shit with children in tow instead.
We're in the middle of a kitchen remodel which was supposed to be done by Christmas but surprise surfuckingprise that's looking more unlikely with each passing second.
The electrician is playing silly buggers and I haven't a fucking clue what he's doing but whatever it is he's in the way of the builder who I think has just realised how close Christmas actually is.
DH is mega mega stressed re kitchen as we're supposed to be hosting both sides of the family on Christmas Day for the first time. So he's being a snappy arsehole because it's all out of his hands and he can't influence it. (Although tbf he has apologised).
I'm SO OVER living in a building site. And I'm on my period which is sort of the disgusting icing on the cake. 😁

@MrTumblesSpottyHag I'm in the same boat, the person fitting our kitchen is sick with the flu so we have half a kitchen, mess, dust and filth everywhere, house in disarray and bugger all we can do about it.

So so tempted to just cancel Christmas altogether to alleviate the stress away.

Sorry for everyone who is suffering. I don’t feel too bad today but have been in the throes of sleep deprivation recently which has prompted a few moans. I just wanted to say how funny and kind you all sound despite your woes big and small. May you all be free of your suffering very soon

Agree with other posters. Wednesday can also fuck off and 2018 can fuck RIGHT off and when it gets there can fuck off a little more. Then I’ll burn it with fire.

We will need a much bigger plane.
A seat for me, too? One way ticket? Please?
How a year can even be so shitty, I don't know. Does it get better at all?
