it was a one night stand with a person i have known for a short while but who nobody else in my life knows.

my OH is far from the most loving man in the world and often i mull over why i am with him but he would be devastated if he knew

How many children do you have, are they old enough to help you so to speak ??

Scoobydooooo · 21/08/2006 13:30

I really do feel very sorry for you, it's sounds like you are really suffering & you have come here because you need to talk.

Is there anyone who can help with your children? to give you a little break? does your dp/dh work? is he unable to help you in anyway at all?

sorry did not mean to sound harsh at all. just can not take much more at the moment and if you knew who i was i would just feel even worse knowing that you all know.

i know you all are fab.

i also know sherlock isn't called sherlock for nothing [insert weak smile emoticon]

Before I e-mail the wrong person.

sleepysooz · 21/08/2006 13:34

pickthebones - look at all these posts in less than an hour, shows you how people care on mn. Hope we can all help you!

nutcracker · 21/08/2006 13:37

LGJ is fab, gives great advice.

SherlockLGJ · 21/08/2006 13:51

Thanks Nutty.

If you have my email adress, and I rather suspect you have, then please e-mail me if you feel the need.

JunkInMyTrunk · 21/08/2006 13:57

ptb, don't really know what to say but you know that people care and want to help. We all have timess in our lives when we feel like there's no light at the end of the tunnel and I appreciate that you don't want to talk to anybody in rl but if you have a good friend here on mn, then take full advantage.....we all need somebody to turn to and talk things thru with regardless of what we've said or done.
Hope you're ok

edam · 21/08/2006 14:01

ptb, feel very sorry for you. Have you thought of setting up a hotmail account as pickthebones? Then you can turn CAT back on using that address so MNers who want to help can reach you. Just an idea feel free to ignore if it's unhelpful.

I think you've done something you hate pickthebones, remember its irrelevant what anyone here thinks of you. I think you did it because your self-esteem is low and the rpoblem is your self-esteem has just got even lower because you did it.

Forgive yourself, stop now, pick up the pieces and move on

I get the impression something bad happened to you recently? But don't feel pressured to say it.

thank you very much. you have all given me more sympathy and time than i deserve.

i hadn't thought about that edam.

how do i?

OP posts:
Scoobydooooo · 21/08/2006 15:46

Ok so you know everything you are doing is not right so do you want to start sorting it out or do you want to carry on the way you are going?

expatinscotland · 21/08/2006 15:46

spending money you don't have, self destructive behaviour, acting out wild impulses.

followed by utter exhaustion.

sorry if i read too much into this. i lived w/a bipolar man for a couple of years.

SherlockLGJ · 21/08/2006 15:56

Have emailed the person I strongly suspect this is.
