hey you,

Good to hear from you.  SorryI've been out of pocket lately, but things aren't 
going well for me mentally right now and I'm just trying to hold on.  My 
bipolar and anxiety disorders are at their limit and I was just instructed by 
my doctors to take my sedatives three times a day, the maximum dosage, until 
this calms down.  I haven't started this yet cause I have to get the timing 
right and their is so much that I have to be alert for.  I don't know how I'm 
supposed to do this all.  I don't know how I'm suppose to take care of the 
things that I can but not be so afraid of the things that are running through 
my head that may or may not be reasonable to be afraid of, and give control to 
Brad for the things that I just can't do anything about, and sit and watch that 
stuff go down without panicking that he's not doing it right or that something 
will go wrong if I don't do it but there are just things that I can't handle.  
My mind is totally overloaded or shut down to the point of being reverted to a 
child or even completely useless.  I know I need to take the sedatives, but 
then what.  I won't be as solid as I need to be.  There's still so much to do 
and I feel like time is slipping away.  Every time something good happens 
something negative droops on me too.  

My Dad sent us a check so that we could go buy some furniture that we needed 
but spent an hour tearing me a new ass whole telling me that I was going kill 
Brad because of the way that I made him cook for me and that It was somehow my 
fault that his parents wouldn't help us with this situation.  The exterminators 
were nothing but a load of bull shit and that we really didn't have to move but 
it was just me overreacting.  On and on it went for an hour and every time I 
tried to be positive and say that something was going to work out for the best 
he would hit me with something negative again.  Even when I told him that I had 
lost twelve pounds the only thing he could say was that we would see if I could 
keep it up.  

I feel like I have to justify every decision I make and that I have to explain 
every move I make.  No one just listens to any decisions that I chose and says 
OK, Jenny, let's do that, you're right.  It's always that I'm being over 
reacting or panicking or something and then when I turn out to be right then 
all hell breaks loose or we've been without something for a while or we've lost 
an opportunity.  I told Brad that I wanted to go to the hospital and stay there 
till this was over, but if I do that I'm not sure what would happen with 
Brooks.  Also, I can't sleep without the TV on and the last time I was at a 
mental hospital they didn't have TV's in the rooms and it was a total nightmare 
for me.  The silence was completely hell on earth.  I don't know what to do or 
where to go from here but something's got to give.  I figured I could tell you 
the truth.  I hoped you'd understand.  Please don't think I'm a freak of judge 
me.  If you don't want to deal with this I totally get it.  You don't have to 
reply to this at all.  I just needed to , I don't know.  I just needed someone 
who might understand my head space.  No one else gets this and it's hard to be 
the only one in this ship of panic and fear and anxiety and stress and 
everything else that I feel that I just can't express.

Jenny and my goofy guide Brooks
