I feel like I can't talk to my friends because they have their own crud going on, and they don't need to hear any of MY issues. I do go to a counsler, but have not been able to for the past week or two due to the cost. (without med insurance) I feel like I am losing it, hardcore.. I love my animals, but sometimes wonder if they would be better off with somebody else. I want to move to some farm in rural montana and just do an internship, live on the property, work on the farm or ranch, and just get paid in board and learning things, but I am bound here by my animals. Don't get me wrong, I love them with all my heart, every one of them, but I am so close to listing my chickens on craigslist I can't even explain. I feel like I can't take my brother's constant badgering. I really feel like throwing in the towel and going to tent stake some river spot up north with my dog. I would never abandon my cat or chickens, but that is where I am at.
It's like I am suffocating and can't get air, I don't know why or if this is just horomonal or what, but I really feel like I am spirolling downhill quickly. My family is run by addiction and alcoholism, and I am dang tired of BOTH. I really need to get away, but who would care for the chickens? Or the cats? I feel stuck, and feel awful for even considering trying to escape from this household. Obviously I won't go anywhere, but I just.. Hardly keeping my head above water. I am trying to be there as best I can for my neice and nephew who are with us pretty constantly, but again even that is grinding down on me. I feel like I am being streached way too thin, and am about to break.. I'm sorry I just don't know what else to do.
