I have failed

Some of you know me already. I cant get into my other account on this phone because my number changed. Neither here nor there. But yes. It is me. And i come here because i need help. I need encouragement to keep on trying. Because i am closer then ever of giving up. And i dont mean drugs. I mean just stop trying. I tried to do this living thing on my own. And im failing. I have failed. This is it. No deeper to go. Im gonna say f*** it and not worry about a thing. Sit in this house until they physically remove me or i die. Thing is i have no one that would even notice. I wonder what the f*** im even trying so hard for anyways. Rock bottom hasnt seen s*** on this. Im in a bad place

Hey Kristina. Sorry to see you so low. What have you been working towards that you haven't been able to achieve?

Sorry for your troubles, but I Am going to help you out. Just keep doing the next right thing, cause you don't have control over anything else. Neither do any of us. I'll pray for you.

Hi Kristina. I feel this way often as well. I think many of us do. I am not trying to diminish how you feel in any way. Simply letting you know you are not alone. Maybe times of feeling like this is one reason why we have this community to reach out to. Knowing you're not alone sometimes helps. Even if it's just a little. Being as fortunate as I am I still feel my life is just one big hamster wheel. Ending up in the same place no matter what or running and trying hard only to feel in reality I've gone nowhere. Then there are days I'm on top of the world. Crazy life I guess but I am sober now through it all so that is a victory. Please feel free to reach out anytime. God bless :pray:

In order to try and help you, I need you to try to visualize... Visualize a ramp which shows linear elevation...

This is not how our success typically follows the pattern. It tends to follow when is more of a curve, and when that curve is although u low. Still, that is where we are currently. The good news is that this curve is right before the breakthrough point, which grant this access two major and increased elevation

This point that we are currently at is often called the valley of disappointment. However, it's important to note that the value of disappointment comes right before the breakthrough

That being said, keep on trying, you are getting the hang of this

Just making ot on my own. I left a 20 yr marriage and left with nothing. With the im tough attitude and i did decent i guess for over 2 years. I moved to a new state and started fresh. Got a job that i loved and it was paying my bills. Thing is i have a medical thing where i have to see my doc every three months foe blood test. In NC.. so for over 2 years every three months i head back to NC for appt. This last time which i flew to nc on sept 27th. I was scheduled to fly back on the 1st after my appt. But that hurricabe hit hard there and i became stranded without a car or phone. So i missed my appt. I misswd my flight. Had to reschedule appt and the fastest they could do was the 10th. So i settlef in and waited in nc that whole time. I almost made ir. I belueve it was rhe 7th or so i went to the er with agonizing pains in my arm. Long story short they found a blood clot. In my juglur vein this stolped me fro. Flying and at that moment i knew it would be a long rd ahead and i knew i would have to stay in nc while i took this journey. And i knew i had things to take care of in fl. One od them being trying to get here beforw hurricane Milton got here so prepare ny home. I rsnted a car putting my account far in the minus. And i drove stopping every 30 min to get out and walk.i also was only packed for a three day trip so i had nothing to last me 6 months. So now im in florida. . Ended up at er afain. Where they found more blood clots. They say i cant qork right now and i need to take this serioys. I know i need to get back to nc d and i was planning on making money by working for it to pay .... . The pawn shop where my mothers rings are. And mt storage unit qhich will be auctioned on thirsday. Then have enough money to get to nc and a little extea to live on. Had to quit my beloved job. I looked into every resorce i could think of and i guess because ive actually tried i dont qualify. I have stuff for sale on marketplace. Stuff i never wanted to sell. But with hurricane. No one is buying . I need 200 today or im basically on the streets. I have started a go fund ne with nothing asked for help on fb. Nothing i dont knoe ehqt else to do. My hands are tied

If i dont dje from my newly discovered blood clots. Because i canr get where i needbto go for my medical treatment

Good morning Kristina,
I have been in the place where you were at now many times. It’s the substance talking it’s not your soul. Reach out to us reach out to me personally if you feel the need, I want to tell you, people will notice your absence. You do make a difference and you must just try even if it’s one second at a time. There is a meditation that has really helped me. It’s the first meditation you matter. You reaching out has mattered to me. So you see, you do matter. And you can do this because if you can do this, then I can do this and we all can do this and if we can do this and you can try for another day. Peace
