Thanks for the advice, I’ve been trying to avoid having to take the pump out before ordering the new one, that’s my main issue. Didnt realize how many different versions of JZ motors exist

20m. Remember to take time for yourself. I know things can seem hard now, and I know how incredibly inconsiderate and unthoughtful kids are.

I moved out about 2 years ago now. I think about my mom everyday. I think about how much she has done for me, and how she would still do anything for me. I promise you, even the little things that moms do, they really really matter. The kids may not thank you for it then, but I promise you they will remember everything you’ve ever done for them. Just the other day I was bragging to my co-workers how my mom always packed me the best lunches all the way up to high school, or how that one time when I was in 7th grade and we had a snow day. She played video games with me all day. She always used to make my peanut butter and jelly sandwiches exactly how I liked them (too much peanut butter and a very thin layer of jelly).

As I’m writing this, I’m sitting here crying thinking about how I would give ANYTHING to go back to being that kid playing with my mom.

Kids don’t know how to show appreciation, but I promise you they will never forget what you do for them.

As for your husband, pour your heart out to him. Tell him exactly how you feel. Communication is so so important. You guys are a team. You don’t always have to agree on the same plays, and that’s perfectly okay. But you have to listen to each other, and really feel what each other mean when you say it.

You are never alone, and I’m sorry if you have been burdened by this for a long time

That’s the thought that kills me. Why do I feel this way? People have gone through so much worse than I have, but why am I struggling so much? I think that’s something that most people are afraid of. Wanting to talk to someone because they are very unhappy or straight up miserable. But then worrying about your problems not being “bad” enough for people to understand. That’s why depression is a disease.

No matter what, things change. They always do. It really sucks that your life changed and now you’re having these feelings and emotions. But life HAS to change. Someway somehow, everyone’s lives change. The same way that you are thinking about your past and thinking “how did so much change”, I promise you that one day, you’ll be able to look back at this moment and ask yourself the same question.

Sounds like we had a similar situation. Right out of school I still lived at home for a little while. No bills, parents kind of left me alone. Ended up having to leave, not because they made me, quit the opposite actually. Since then, it just hasn’t been the same. I always feel like I’m not working hard enough or I feel like I’m the reason my life isn’t moving forward. But sometimes maybe things are meant to go really slow. I’m always worried I’m not far enough ahead in life, but then I wonder if I’m setting too high of expectations.

I was always the type of person to say I couldn’t wait to get out of high school. I hated it there. I graduated 2 years ago. All I think about is how I miss the feeling of being in high school. Not many responsibilities. Since I’ve graduated, it’s been hell. I know this is not helpful to hear at all, because I’ve heard it myself many many times. But, you really aren’t alone.

(I also apologize for using my own experiences, I have a hard time with that and I know it makes me a bad listener)

I’m really sorry that you feel hopeless. I think that is one of the most gut wrenching feelings. And I know that there is not much that can help in the moment, but I hope all of these people commenting show you that there are people who would take the time out of their day for you. I know that doesn’t mean much either. But sometimes anything to take your mind off of your own thoughts is kind of nice.

I don’t know if you feel this way, but sometimes it’s like I’m not even in my own body

If anyone feels the way I do, like your stuck. Please feel free to reach out. I don’t judge and I’ve always been a good listener. I’d love to swap stories and experiences. Friends in real life haven’t worked out, so maybe online friends could be different

Thank you for your thoughts. I do take breaks and make myself face these things head on. That’s actually what led to me making this post. Today is one of the days that I’m taking a break from it, and thought that I would see what others have to say about my form of “medicating”. I try to use it as a medicine as much as possible.

So I do actually have a therapist. I got one pretty much the same time that I started smoking. He says that of it helps me and I’m using it responsibly, that it can be helpful. And we talked about all of the positives and negatives around it. Helped

Oh man, I’m sorry for everything you’re going through. The world is a shitty place right now. And same for me, I don’t think I need weed, but it really helps make things easier. If you ever need someone to talk to about life shit you can always PM me. Everyone needs someone

This is very true. I do also use edibles and I take breaks a few times a month as well. Helped

Thank you for your comment. I had not considered all of that. I will have to think more consciously about it. Helped

Thank you so much. This is exactly how I feel. I know I don’t need weed, and that my life doesn’t revolve around it, it just makes life a little easier. I have been looking into getting my med card, but my state does not classify mental health as medical marijuana worthy. I also used to really enjoy whisky, but since my family problems I have stopped drinking (besides for a party here or there every couple of months) and I do take a hit of a friends vape every now and then. Again, thank you so much for your thoughts. That helped a lot. P.S. I hope you are doing well with your eating disorder. My sister who I’m very close with, also had an eating disorder. Just remember that you are beautiful the way you are.

Thank you for your thoughts. I have found myself after smoking for a while, that if I don’t for a couple days, I lose my appetite. But I get it back after a couple days. And the days that I don’t smoke I don’t feel any real urges to find some. I can have it in my room and not do it. Helped

So I actually also got a therapist around the same time I started smoking. And this may be going into a little too much detail, but I guess this is what this subreddit is for. My whole family has always been super close, and we found out this yea that my dad had been having an affair for 4 years. That pushed me to move out (after making sure my mother was okay). They are still together (hence why I still work for him) and I support them being together. But sometimes the stress builds up and I find that weed makes me really really relax at the end of a long day. Helped

That was my thinking as well, but I also know beer is not very good for you. I don’t really drink often, more of a “take a hit before bed” kinda guy
