Feeling overwhelmed [View all]

Once my Medicare kicks in, seriously considering checking myself into an in-patient mental facility.

I'm trying to be mindful. Stress less. I'm on limited income. Coming up is phase 2 of potential restorative dental work. I'm scared it'll drain my savings. I've already invested $6100 on phase 1, and I don't want to have wasted that money with no followup. I talk to them in January about that.

MrX has insomnia and is constantly sick. He was taken off opioids. I don't want to say more than that.

My data was hacked in the big MoveIt hack months ago. Everyday, I wait to hear my SS# is on the dark web. I have 2 credit monitoring services.

Finally, I'm worried our lease won't get renewed. This will screw us over, big-time.

I lie awake thinking about these things. I try to stop, and not worry so much, but I cannot. I see a therapist and shrink and take meds for depression and anxiety. Thanks for reading. I want to feel normal again
