Feeling a bit better [View all]

I deleted my long, rambling post I wrote while stressed out. The drinking has stopped for now.

I reached out to my cousin and told her I'm grateful she's in my life. She said she's very busy at work. I'd like more interaction from her, but I'm glad I reached out.

I warily reached out to my money-poormouthing sister. As always, she's not doing well. She started in again with "life is what you make it" etc platitudinal lecturing. So I said yup and am not responding further since I don't want a dumpster fire lecturing me on anything.

I'm sorry if my posts are over-the-top. I've also reached out on reddit and have a FB friend I'm talking to. Still fearful of being homeless and of the future.
