Thank you for sharing your experience Holly! Your bravery and vulnerability to share your life situations is so helpful to so many and to me. I am single and no children and I only have myself to rely on when these things happen to me. And trust me, being sober now for almost 2 1/2 yrs, at 52, life is still hard! It sucks sometimes and I am exhausted from always having to make decisions! Can someone please take care of me?? Even just for a minute?? I always feel like my life has been tremendously challenging and I always feel this sense of being cursed or “unlucky”.

Anyway...I can relate to it all! Thank you and I always look forward to reading your Substack! Love you! 💜

So true. I am 62 and still wondering when life is going to get easier. Isn’t that the real problem… Still being future oriented--thinking life will be easier, things will be better, when XYZ.

Now it is “when I retire.” Like that won’t bring another whole host of problems such as figuring out Medicare, figuring out how to live on a fixed income, figuring out what to do when I have no structure in my days. Pretty sure Life will not be easier then... sigh
