The Complaining and Bitching Thread

That sounds a lot more serious than it seems like it is...

 

That sounds like it's serious @Wildmermaid

Oh it is normal, painful but normal. I have ehlers danlos, other stuff, and most of my bones dislocate. Not serious just hurts. Have had surgery since I was a little girl and this is just life.

 

Update: I've taken an apartment and have moved in. Probably the end of the marriage. She's very angry and won't talk to me. She believes I cheated on her (not true) but she's believed that for two years and we've hardly spoken in that time. I'm out of a stressful environment, and I've decided to stop drinking because I think it makes me feel worse. Doing OK, at the moment.

 

Hang in there, man. Find someone to talk to if you find yourself in dark places.

 

So after a solid month of looking I'm still empty handed. There's tons of places I could live, affordably (~$500-600 including utilities) and with bus service, if I were a woman. There are only a handful of rooms open to a male tenant and they're all hundreds of dollars more ($800's) and add hours to my commute. As it stands even if I could find someone who would let me rent for only 3 months I'd probably be paying almost 100% of my paycheck into rent and riding several hours to and from work every day.

This is why ~90% of the homeless are men.

Good call. I learned the hard way it doesn't really help you with anything and just winds up costing a lot and making you feel like shit. May as well just blow the money elsewhere on something actually enjoyable.

 

Actually, I got into AA because I believe I have a problem. It's pretty clear that I can't stop drinking, so I need to not start in the first place.

It's unbelievable how welcoming and non-judgmental that organization is. And the stories you hear are both frightening and inspiring. All my life I've felt judged and found wanting. At meetings, I feel only acceptance.

 

Lady problems. The woman I want doesn't want me.

 

LADY, I AM THE ONLY ONE HERE, I AM GETTING YOU BEER AND ICE (from downstairs, may I add) AS QUICKLY AS I CAN!



....shit, this woman's gonna get me fired. I keep biting my tongue when she makes demands, but I'm afraid I'm gonna slip sooner or later.

 

fuck that bitch

 

Initially, I said the same thing. But after everything was over, she sat down and had a couple beers with a couple other people, and was a bit mellower. It occurred to me that she was under some major stress from the event and maybe just didn't know how to direct it.

I mean, still not cool to be shitty with ME. But a little more understandable, at least.

 

youre a way better person than me

 

Oddly, I'm not having a problem with the god stuff. I do believe that there's something greater than ourselves, and I meditate and put my shit out there, asking for guidance to meet these problems. Generally, I've been getting it.

This is day 8 without alcohol, and I am not craving it. I have no desire to drink.

 

Have to ask, was this to me, or someone else?

Glad you're doing okay, and hope you have someone to talk with about all you're going through.

My problems are boring body in mutiny mode. I swear at this point I'm not allowed a meal without getting sick. What the fuck body.

 

Yeah, dislocating your spine sounds terrifying but you seemed mostly inconvenienced.

 

That makes perfect sense. Thank you for answering. My spine (and most other bones) has/have been dislocating since I was 7 and I'm 42 now. I've had a lot of surgery on other parts, and most can be put back in pretty easily. Spine, ribs, and collarbones are my major pains, but also just part of life.

 

It's like when I casually mention having a seizure (or when people see me have one).
I've been having the full tonic clonic break through seizures (drop to floor, flop around like fish out of water) for 45 years.
It sucks to be sure but it's part of being me.
