I am so very sorry. All the platitudes boil down to this -- it sucks.

I'm going through horrible anxiety due to abuse on the job and from my family. I'm in therapy but each day is a challenge. I am having a hard time at work because I can't multitask as fast as those 30 years younger. I am the sole support for my family.

Your post has uplifted me, even if for now.

I was told today that Spirit has perfect timing. Guess it does.

Hold on. Thanks to you, I can hold on for tonight and tomorrow.

THANK YOU
