Stressed Out!

by Mouth @ 2009-10-07 – 21:19:49

I havent posted on here for ages! I have just purchased a new laptop so I have the freedom to do whatever!

Im so stressed out at the moment, everything is pissing me off. The flat is an absolute tip and I want to cry everytime I walk in here. I want someone to help me tidy it, but he never gets the hint and that depresses me even more.

The kitten is driving me up the wall, he goes where hes not meant to, chases the big cat and theyre always fighting.

I need a holiday but Ive only just come back!

Im so fed up, sometimes I dont want to come home.

It sounds like you are suffering from depression hun, if your holiday hasn't changed your outlook then maybe you need to speak to someone? Admitting that you have depression doesn't make you a bad person, we all suffer from it at some point in our lives, and it makes the simplest of things so much harder to deal with.

See a Doctor, soon, maybe just talking about it will help.

  Thanks hun
  
  I wasnt like this before we went away. Just every little thing is winding me up, I hate not having control over situations. Im used to having a tidy house after living by myself, and I cant find a compromise.
  
  Little niggles are showing their head too!
  
  I feel so bad complaining about these things when my sister in law has just had a breast cancer op, and my mum has broken her wrist. My problems seem small in comparison with theirs.

    Well the point is that they are your problems, and they may seem small in comparison, but to you they are large.
    
    I have been there, after raising my children and then they left home, a lovely clean house, then they come back, and it is hard to find that middle ground, when does it become more than just pride and turns into a compulsion, that is what you have to watch. A little untidiness does not mean your house is not clean, and only takes ten minutes to sort out. As long as you know it is clean underneath, then learn to live with that little bit of untidiness, in the long run, it will save your sanity.

Talk to him! It is a home for both of you, even if you have to draw up a list of chores that you will both stick to, or even rooms you are both responsible for - it will be hard for him too though. I am really untidy, I just don't see it as a problem and my husband is anally neat - problems? Yeah. But now my study is my space and can be as untidy as I want it to be, it is my area, the rest of the house is tidy. I told him I wasn't doing all the cleaning and he had to do 2 days a week so he pays a cleaner to do his 2 days - maybe your oh could do the same? There is always a solution, you just have to look for it x

  He has tidied up a bit today when I got home! A marginal improvement, but not fantastic.
  
  Hes got man flu too at the moment, yet another excuse!

Holiday? Laptop? New job is going well then!
deffo talk to him about it, comunication is the key, and make sure you convey how much it's upsetting you.
(please expand on "chases the big cat" sounds... Interesting!)

  Haha! The holiday was a little trip to Scarborough, and the latop is because my old one was dying a death.
  
  The kitten likes to hound the big cat round the flat and then they have a big scarp afterwards! Although it can be either of them instigating a fight!
  
  I do try and talk to him anout it, but he can get so defensive and angry about stuff that I normally end up being more upset than I was to begin with.
