All the ####### that has been going on in my life for the past 5 months (Immigration, financial problems, my illness...etc), has finally gotten to me. I can barely keep my head up. So many things are just piling up and I cannot see the light at the end of the tunnel anymore. keith works ten hours a day so i am usually alone in my thoughts. I dont sleep at night because I am up with worry, I am always in physical pain because of whatever is wrong with me, my anxiety attacks, our pastor got arrested so our arrangement with being the childrens pastors and not having to pay rent because of it is no longer valid and they are selling the apartment we are currently living in to pay off some stuff, Canada is now demanding money from me because they said they gave me too much money on my income tax and I cant afford it right now, Doctor's bills up the A$$, I havent heard anything about my AOS for almost two months, I miss my family and my friends, I am fighting with my mother, my self-esteem has yet again plummeted, I'm exhausted and stressed out.

I really dont know how to go on.

Sorry for the rambling, I just had to let it out, and Keith is at work so I just posted it here.

Stina, Stina, please, don't allow yourself to become so depressed that you can't hold your head up anymore that just isn't good. I know I don't know you all that well, but I know exactly how it feels and I know how hard it can be. When things begin to pile up one on top of the other, you begin to feel as if there is no way out. There is always a way out, you may not see it right now, but it is there. It will appear....you may not know how or when right now, but it will. You are much stronger than you feel right now, we all have an inner strength inside of us that sometimes we are not aware of, especially in our most down times. I have a ongoing problem with depression off and on throughout my life, I am actually Bipolar and have to take medication for it. I have more of a chemical depression problem than situational, but situational problems in my life trigger the chemical problems that i have and it does feel as if you just want to give up. I have learned though you can bring that inner strength that you have inside of you out and use that to help yourself get through the worst of times. I am here if you ever need to talk, just PM me anytime..... :luv:

So many things are just piling up and I cannot see the light at the end of the tunnel anymore. keith works ten hours a day so i am usually alone in my thoughts. I dont sleep at night because I am up with worry, I am always in physical pain because of whatever is wrong with me, my anxiety attacks, our pastor got arrested so our arrangement with being the childrens pastors and not having to pay rent because of it is no longer valid and they are selling the apartment we are currently living in to pay off some stuff, Canada is now demanding money from me because they said they gave me too much money on my income tax and I cant afford it right now, Doctor's bills up the A$$, I havent heard anything about my AOS for almost two months, I miss my family and my friends, I am fighting with my mother, my self-esteem has yet again plummeted, I'm exhausted and stressed out.

I really dont know how to go on.

Sorry for the rambling, I just had to let it out, and Keith is at work so I just posted it here.

Awwwwwwwwwwwww Stina love I can fully empathise with you... just hang in there love ((((HUGS)))) (F)

Paul and I met on the Bazaar on the 14th January (he joined my progressive rock forum that day)

July 3rd he flew to England to meet me

We fell in love while he drove all over the place coz I cannot read maps (we were supposed to go to Ingleton - but touched Darlington 4 times, Pierce Bridge 6 times, Scotch Corner twice and Bernard Castle twice and we never did make it to Ingleton)

It has been so long and so much has happened in between...

Arrived in Houston on October 29th 2006

Married 17th November 2006

Lost my father 8th January 2007 (all dates are a blur after this)

Conditional Green Card dated 24th October 2007

Ok pills aren't always the answer...

but, Stina, I am so sorry. I would say start with the thing that is MOST managable and begin with that. Focus on only ONE Challenge at a time, so you don't get overwhelmed with EVERYTHING.

I am so sorry you are going through this :(

Finally finished with immigration in 2012!
