Mindfulness and codependence thread
sKePTiKal:
I can't tell if people simply have shrugged off ALL guidance about behaviors - only cherishing the next hedonistic high feeling - or if their cheese has actually slid that far off their cracker (mental illness getting worse).
Even some people I like are showing severe issues. I try to convince myself it's oK to go out in my local town; the people can be real and nice. They know us now, after 8 years. Hol is concerning me some days, with her over-active brain and imagining that people think or feel things... with no evidence. Or trying to reverse engineer the motivation based on evidence.
So, hermit lifestyle is feeling very attractive to me. I have my own issues and problems to solve, and don't have the bandwidth for OPP's. B & I are even thinking about a week's "getaway". Will involve some touristy exploration, but also a LOT of just "us" time. No list... no being around other people's crap.
Only "project" I'm working on is the lift. Contractor I've spoken with about sealing the cabin & rebuilding the decks, still hasn't come out for a "look-see". I know he's busy right now; I know he's short-handed too. It's a possibility for work this fall, when they can't work other properties. Soon our focus will be firewood and indoor tasks (long postponed and very definitely needed.)
Do what you can for the cousin, Lighter. Don't get sucked into Drunk's blatantly obvious control games. It'll just use all your energy to no avail.
