Too much to handle

[babyblue120]

I just came by this site this morning and I just wanted to vent and get feed back. Over the past year I have had so much stress,3 friends have passed,my friends son,the birth of my daughter,gallbladder attacks,bowel attacks,cousin going into cardiac arrest while giving birth to her child,my uncle having a stroke (still in hospital),another uncle died (4days ago) and now my grandfather is going to pass anytime now, not to mention the normal daily stresses of life of raising 3 kids and trying to get myself better. I have gotten 4.5hrs of sleep in 5 days, I am totally terrified to go to sleep most nights, those 4.5hrs of sleep I napped during the day so my husband could keep an eye on me, and it deffinetly don't help when I go for surgery to have my gallbladder removed next week. I am sooo tired and have no idea how I can get sum shut eye, I have tried a hot bath, walking,exercising,reading,watching tv,playing games, and just sitting to try and bore myself but nothing seems to help. Sorry for going on and on I am just so frustrated,confused,sad,scared,angry.
Thanks for listening,

You have my sympathies as well.   You've been through alot.     You will need to go into therapy to help you get past these negatives of life.    Can it be done?    The late Senator Ted Kennedy is an example that yes it can be done.    He saw more family tragedies than the majority of people will ever see in their lifetimes.     Yet he was able to continue as an excellent U.S. Senator for many years (whether you agreed with his political views or not,  just the fact what he was able to do outstanding work in public service).

You have had a lot to deal with the past few months and my heart goes out to you,after all this loss you have experianced its no wonder you are having trouble living a normal every day life,you are as you said very anxious and scared,i think a visit to your doctors to deal with this should be your first step ask to speak to a councillour about all the deaths and stress you have been through,you need to start sleeping because sleep deprivation can make you mind go crazy,please speak to someone for yours and your families sake,you deserve a better life and with alot of help and talking you will get it again
