FearandLoathing Posted August 9, 2010 Posted August 9, 2010 Hey all just wanted to share a bit of my experience with you to let you know that it DOES get better. I have a thread of this in "Coping" but it was suggested to me to make a similar one in here, so here I am Last winter I lost my home, my job, dropped out of school and was losing the love of my life. Instead of just letting me go he used me for sex, drugs and money while playing the "I love you but I can't be with you anymore" game... For more months than I'd like to admit. I can vividly remember one night lying in bed, terribly inebriated, crying in the dark absolutely sure that I was going to die that night. I didn't care if my life ended, I wanted to escape everything I was feeling. A little voice in the back of my head told me that everything gets better if you keep going. I had many many many more very difficult nights ahead of me but slowly I started to feel better. I slipped up a couple times and saw him but the little bit of pain that came afterward was enough to remind me that he wasn't worth it. I now have not talked to him in 2 months, I have a job again and a home! I'm saving money to go back to school and a trip to Florida this winter. I'm also interested in someone new I've gained back the weight I lost and although I'm afraid of the winter months because of my experience, I know that this winter will be different What you're going through is hard but you WILL make it out as a better person in the end! Keep your chin up and look toward the future because it's waiting for you
