Millie's terrible day thread. You can post any and of your disappoints for the day, week, month, year, or your life.

You (the person, not the whole of the situation) would benefit from talking to a professional. I've done more damage to myself in my lifetime from "maybe tomorrowing" prevention on the false assumption I'll make more headway with the focus "curing" carries along.

One of the things that helped me was to know Therapist have therapists. People who have dedicated the bulk of their lives to mental health, where I have not, still get overwhelmed to that level.

We are social creatures. That's why story resonates with us. (us here, especially so.) Have your story heard in full. Learn from other's stories. Evolution knew we couldn't survive without this ability that's why we have it and why we should use it to its fullest.
Thanks. I have 3 therapists actually
 
This thread needs a mascot.

Thank you for asking, but everything's awesome. I'm handsome, wealthy and healthy, sex with the significant other is as mind-blowing as always, the kids are geniuses mature for their age, the pets are a joy and never made messes, the car doesn't need new tires/new engine/extensive repairs and globally the geopolitical scene has never been better.

Ok, you asked - Monday I had a medical examination appointment and an imaging appointment with a company called Veterans Evaluation Services, this is to determine my level of disability for my VA claim. They sent me all the information I could need via a FedEx letter which cost us tax payers quite a bit. I arrived at their office early only to find the office empty, completely empty. I called their number and they said "We moved last year." I raced across Jacksonville FL (Largest city in land size in the USA) and got to their new offices. They couldn't do my first examination because I was late. I waited for the second examination and they called me up and said "This appointment is for imaging... we don't do imaging."

Getting home I found the dishwasher broken, and spent the day trying to find a repairman. We eventually decided to buy ourselves a dishwasher for Christmas.

On Wednesday I drove down to Vero Beach to visit my sister. I stopped at Walmart for some groceries and came out and found that my SUV wouldn't start, so while my sister came to pick me up I had to get my truck towed... I found out yesterday that the starter died, that was a relief, it could have been worse.

Today I had a "Telehealth" video appointment with Veterans Evaluation Services, The doctor never showed up. I called their office and they said "Oh, the doc is backed up."

Yeah, right. On a friday. He probably got a lousy tee time. That's unfair, the weather is too chilly for golf, he's probably waxing his yacht.

Is this reflective of the Veterans Administration as a whole? No. These people are much more efficient than the VA.

The sun's going down and my wife will soon ask me to sit with her for "Happy Hour" to watch the sunset.

And damn it! We're out of the Balvenie 21 scotch!

I'll have to settle for drinking bourbon or wine with her. :cry:
(I guess it's all relative.)
 
I drink Irish Whiskey these days. But I'm down to the last few shots unless Jo has mercy on me and buys a new bottle of Jameson on the way home. Now that's sad, enough for tonight, maybe. I guess if she doesn't get me some, I can load my fat ass in the SUV and drive to the liquor store and get more tomorrow. Damn, life is hard!

At least you’re not an alcohol lightweight like yours truly. Drink up! Responsibly, of course. ;)
 
But seriously, my father had osteoarthritis, AC1 issues, and, for the first time in his 69 years, high cholesterol. He's not happy with the changes, and I feel for him.
I really feel for him. In the past year, my weight went up 30 pounds, I have high pressure and now need meds to keep it under control. I've had some severe illnesses (covid and what I thought was RSV but proved otherwise and another unknown respiratory disease) that put me on my ass for weeks. That plus depression with my siblings climbing my ass for not settling my father's estate after almost 3 years. ( I understand that.) I turn 71 next month.
 
We're watching for signs of depression. So far, he's doing well.

I too have high pressure at 44, endured it for years. Good luck to you.
