$120.00 for 9 years? Is that for a year, a month or all of the 9 years?

I'm in regardless....

Perfect timing for me to need some advice...

You have a desire to help someone.

Do a little research and find someone "more worthy" to help. I hate to say that, because I think all humans are worthy...but some try to help themselves and some wait for a handout and/or play games to get the help they need.

Having said that....when I was in school, I met a fellow student: another mom like me. She had been working as a pre school teacher, which doesn't require a degree here. Her husband committed suicide. So she was working as an accountant, working as a housekeeper, taking care of her 3 kids, and trying to go back to school to get a degree for a better paying job.

She was burning the candle at both ends. But doing it to try to make life better for herself and her kids.

I contacted one of her employers (the one she actually LIKED working for), and together we came up with some donations/ways for her to pay her rent while she was in school so that she wouldn't have to work two jobs and could be there for her kids...as the whole family was hurting and needed to bond over that.

It was a way of using my "wanting to help people" and satisfied that need in me. And I also had to put time and effort...and some money into it (this was before gofundme) and so that was also satisfying.

The gift to her was anon. But it's one of the ways that I found a way to help someone and I'm proud of it to this day. There are other, smaller examples....but there truly are deserving people who could use a piece of your kind heart.

And there are people who WANT to give of themselves. So research. Listen to people's stories. You will feel fulfilled and needed, and that will boost your own psyche.

WITHOUT putting YOURSELF in a PERSONALLY bad situation.

Does that make sense?

Is there anyway to recover posts from the past?

I like the idea of a fresh start :)

I understand that you are a carer and have knowledge of psych...that's why I spoke the way I did ;)

You know what you are into and you know how hard it might be to get out. And yet, you have a loving and caring heart...tough spot to be in

Vampy....they always apologize; downplay things.... It's part of the power and control cycle. And believe me, even the strongest, most intelligent, capable women end up being pulled into cycles that they don't want to be in.

And then they sit back and wonder how in the world that happened to them.

And it sucks that he's struggling. That's a tough one. And I usually help people out, too, and end up getting the raw end of the deal.

But you have to take care of yourself
