New lady here

[FuzzieSocks]

Hey there, I'm a 32 year old female .... my story started long time ago as a child when my parents divorced.
It took it's toll on me. My life spiraled into destruction when my mom remarried. I hate my step dad, blah blah. I rebelled. I was sent to a child psychiatrist and from my profile you can see I have been diagnosed with this and that. And given prescriptions.


Long story short- My father was torn apart after that. It seems I had no family. I looked for love in all the wrong places.
My first relationship was abusive,we were young. I allowed people in my life to be my voice, I was very laid back or passive, and I always gave to please others.

I'm at my turning point, my father died 7 years ago...........I got into addiction. I recently started counseling.
Looking for new friends!!

Your story sounds a lot like mine. My dad left when I was 4. He only came around to borrow money. My mum had to move me around a lot since her jobs always changed.
My dad & I did reconnect when I was in my 20s. But 4 yrs ago he died very suddenly. I didn't realize how much it affected me until 6 mths later when I almost had a nervous breakdown.
If you ever want to talk privately, please feel fee to msg me.

Similar to mine too. 32 year old female who just joined. My mom died when I was 10, dad remarried very quickly, lots of resentment and finally a huge fallout 2 years ago. Anxiety has been a major, and constant, part of my life and I am also hoping to make some new friends as well. Same thing, if you ever need to talk, let me know.

I would love to reply in PM but it says my post count must be at like 10 or something before I can do that for the both of you.
Sorry I can't send a PM but maybe we can talk here until I get that number up. I'm always busy so I don't post a lot on the board forums

Thank you StokesM and everyone else who has replied. I have started on a new medication, (not a big fan of meds) but it made me nauseated and very tired.
Although I was already tired anyway so I can't blame that as a side effect. I'll see if this works for now. As prescribed by my dr.
