I give up-my dad passed away in August. I miss him so much and missed out on years of time with him because of a grudge. I didn't even get to say good-bye. I have also been struggling with Lyme's Disease for a year and a half and I'm getting worse. I am in physical pain almost all the time and mental pain all the time. I don't think I can live like this any longer. I used to be happy, but I really don't see that I can ever be happy again:(

I'm so sorry that you are feeling so low right now.  I don't know what to say except I know for a fact that Jesus loves you, just the way you are, just the way you feel, and if you will allow Him, He will come beside you and help you through this.  The devil comes only to steal, kill and destroy but we can overcome his schemes.  Just tell him to get back and behind you because the blood of Christ has over come him!  He shivers and runs at the name of Jesus. I don't know  if you watch Joyce Meyer on tv or have any of her books.  She has really helped me get through some very hard times.  I have lost 3 of my 4 brothers and both parents, plus many other relatives.  The one brother I do have left is a drug addict and also suffers some mental problems due to all the abuse we all suffered growing up.  PLEASE don't give up.  Your emotions don't have to run your life.  You are not how you feel.  You can get through this.  Please hold on.  Ask the Lord to help you and He will.  Please keep in touch with us on this forum.  We all care.

I know that there is hope for you, please do not give up. If you need to talk I am here and would love to listen and support you. Jayne

My heartfelt condolesences to you. I feel your pain Lynette. My father passed away in November of 2011, and due to not talking to him for some time, I just found out on Friday. None of his family even bothered to contact me and let me know. It was like a blow to my heart. I did not get to say I was sorry, or I loved him, or goodbye. And the guilt and regret really hurts. Theres so many things I wanted to say, and I thought I would be able to. I didnt want it to end like that, with him thinking I hated him or whatever he may have thought, because I did not, I just got too wrapped up in my own life. The pain will subside...you will always think about him, and it will be rough, the guilt and pain will be too much at times, but just think about the good times, and smile. Or at least try to. I know coming from someone you do not know the whole 'it will get easier' thing sounds like a load of bull, but it has to...right? I'm hoping.

It was not supposed to be like this

In 2014 I met the most amazing man ever. We were both in our very early 20s and were looking for different things at the time. We ceased communication for roughly 6 months. During which time, he completed basic training and joined the Air Force. By the time we reconnected he was already at his first duty station.. 8 hours away.We decided we wanted to continue our relationship and proceeded to cultivate a deeply emotional connection. Regular calls and video chats, visits while he was home on…See More

Being the Other Woman/Other Man

This is for anyone who has lost their lover to death and you were the other woman/other man in their life. We have to grieve in silence. I can't find any support groups and feel like I'm the only one going through this situationSee More
