In a mess. Lost hope, regrets, beating myself up and have done for months. Visions of " Mr Wonderful " in bed with her. Alone, lost and no future. Pretty scary. Never been in the hole I am now. Finances terrible, prospects terrible, mostly due to the 5 year economic Tsunami that seems to be never ending.

 

Just cannot see a way out of this now. Life is a living hell now.

 

Everyday pointless, putting up a battle to keep body and soul together but what is the point ?

 

Middle aged, time has run out. Too late for me now. Too many mistakes, too much going against me.

 

All in all hopeless now.

If its any comfort, I feel exactly the bloody same.

 

Her family "cared about me". Not heard from them once.

I don't want to sound like a cliche, but if you have the ATTITUDE that you are worthless, then you're probably gonna be right. Now, I am gonna assume you are a grown man. If I may just be a little bit blunt here? Many people have been in your position. They got over it. Try to stop feeling sorry for yourself, and instead assume a positive attitude towards yourself. I know it's easy to say, but in the end you do yourself a favor.

 

You state that you are of middle age. So you're saying you have half your life ahead of you! The glass is half full. My grandma is a hundred years. Her motto: keep calm and carry on. Just throwing that in there for effect ;)

 

Think of your future self when you are doing those things that will ultimately make you feel better. Tidy up a little. Just small things. You are doing them for YOU. Hang in there buddy, you still have happy days ahead of you.

I read in a past thread how you are 50. That is not the end...you still have many good years ahead, or can have many good years ahead.

 

Many people have financial struggles and things seem desolate, but find yourself again. Learn to love yourself again. Don't be that person that has to be with someone to feel whole. Be able to feel whole on your own! It's up to you...I hope you choose happiness. The past is the past, take things day by day, learn to enjoy the moments - make even the positive little things count.

 

Are you able to walk? Exercise, breathe in the fresh air. Live!
