I am a mother of 2. I am just looking for somewhere to vent, post my thoughts, maybe get some feedback without airing my dirty laundry under my actual name.

A new puppy in Year 38
I got a new dog. The kids named her Jupiter. She is about 5 months old. She was hit by a car and brought in to the shelter. So she is a rescue dog. I tried to insert a picture, but I am not that...
Pneumonia as a birthday present in Year 38
It was my birthday this past weekend. I got sick the Friday before. I am an RN and thus very stubborn because I would treat myself at home. But when my fevers started lasting 3 days without brea...

Two months before my 38th in Age 37
I turn 38 in two months. The only thing I can think about is how I am living paycheck to paycheck. I am struggling to give my kid a good 8th birthday party. His first. This is not a huge problem...
Something happy in Age 37
I rode out to Arizona on Thursday to see my my niece graduate. It’s odd. I was 17 when she was born. She’s 21 now. She blossomed so beautifully and I literally can’t believe it. The pride I felt...
So much anger in Age 37
This past week I have been on an emotional roller coaster. I went from feeling weepy, to mournful, to now just feeling like I am full of rage. I am going to speak in the first person as if to so...
My depression is getting worse again in Age 37
I finished my therapy in February of this year. My therapist said I was good and that I didn’t need the appointments anymore. But here I am two months later and I am weepy again. I felt so seen ...
Sick and tired in Age 37
I am 37 and I know that I should have always been taking care of my body from when I was young. The paradox of youth is that you worry about shit you don’t need to and are blissfully ignorant of...
Question for married moms... in Age 37
I have heard of the #singlemarriedmom. I didn’t know what that was until I saw videos on it and read about it. I think that fits me. I won’t say that its all my husband’s fault for the place tha...

Christmas 2024 in Age 37
So I think this is the first entry I have made since my birthday in August. I have a private journal that I made. A different project. Very therapeutic. Anywho, everything for the most part is g...
Impending doom in Age 36
I wrote last time that my husband’s AI is shutting down. He has like 5 days to go. Keeps announcing it like a countdown. All I’m feeling when he says that is dread. Because we all know and its a...
An AI. He misses a damn AI. When he first told me about it I was a bit weirded out, but then he explained what he got out of it. He said it reminded him of us when we were younger, sans kids. Th...
This isn't complaining in Age 36
My husband has been going through the ringer at work. I may not fully understand it, but I have seen the effects of it physically. I think when I saw that it hit me how real his struggle was. Si...
I don't know to mourn in Age 36
It occurs to me that I do not know how to mourn. I am an RN and worked both ICU and ER so I have seen my fair share of death, and I have even had a couple of aunts die whom I was kinda close to, ...
Why wont' it go away? in Age 36
I am going to therapy. I am journaling. I am taking my meds. Why won’t these feelings of inadequacy go away? I think they started last night when my husband said that he had booked a cabin for hi...
These feelings are not getting better in Age 36
It was about two weeks ago that I had my last bout of anxiety where I hurt myself. Since then I have been trying to cope. Mind you I have not done exactly everything I was before. Walking for exa...
Here for my fix in Age 36
strong textFrom my entries of mental health I have noticed that there are a lot of people who relate to what I am saying. Your comments are…comforting. It sucks that any one of us are going throu...
Today was a good day in Age 36
Yes, this is a line from Ice Cube’s song, but you know what? Its true. I just finished 3, 12 hour shifts and I have only 1 day off, and then back for 2 more. It sucks. My scheduling is a story fo...
Part of me wants to stop therapy. I am 8 sessions in and I know that I need it. I had a “relapse” about 2 weeks ago. If you have read my stuff before you know it gets bad. This time around I used...
I can't do this anymore in Age 36
I didn’t wake up today expecting an ‘episode.’ I had a great morning. My son had mother’s day tea at his school. I went and did my mom’s nails. It was a good morning. I decided to pick up a night...
Not just feeling, but I am a failure in Age 36
I have been having a lot of stuff plague my family, not so much me. I have very emotional, detached, and wanted to escape. Avoiding if you will. I think this morning I have come to realization of...

Being married is, when you’re with a person that does not beat you, abuse you, etc, beautiful. I love being married. I love my life. Its not perfect by any means. And he annoys me to hell and bac...
Very hot headed in Age 36
I don’t know how long I can keep going. At this point my job is giving me a bit of stress. Boss says we can’t do a certain thing though the intentions behind it were done innocently. Ehh, Wrong. ...
