Temporally Enhanced! (edited)

What do you mean? Temporary?????

 

[Lilianna23]

No it sounds like you were limit and boundary setting with her. Dont avoid her. Keep on being her big brother. There is a reason she is acting like that. Low self esteem fear anxiety etc. Give her a shot to be better. If she doesn't start acting like she should may need to limit contact with her though. Some people have to be loved from afar because they will poison everything around them

This is GREAT advice!

 

[Polranny]

No. You're not the asshole! You're allowed to set boundaries and decide what you will/won't put up with. Family can push our buttons like no other. If you feel like you should apologize for HOW you said things, do so. But never apologize for stating your truth.

I've actually divorced one of my siblings. I feel no guilt for it. Better for my mental health to be no contact.

Hugs for you!

Same here. Divorced 3 kept 1

for those of you following the saga… my new meds seem to be starting to work to keep my overall mood good, but it still doesn’t take much to drop it again, unfortunately.

Oh, YAY! Keep giving them time! I've found being active helps so much! It will boost your endorphins and potentiate the meds!

As far as I can tell exercise (in moderation) makes everything better.

My trainer is a girl! While she's a complete hottie, my only interest in her is how much she can make me work!

Hello there. Just ran across this group this morning. Looks like my kind of place. I'm Steve. 69 years young and trying to keep the demons of aging at bay. Straight male. Unhappily married (it's complicated). Always on the lookout for kindred spirits. Located in southwest Idaho.

I am out of sorts.... I hate the holidays---i just wish they would go away or I could just stay inside locked up and they would pass over and I could come out of my den in the spring.....like a hibernating bear

Awww, so sorry, hon! I love them but I create a lot of stress for myself around them. I'm decorating already. Then, I will start baking...
