deteriorating relationships

[monkhousebob]

im the kind of person who enjoys his own space and doesnt like to be around people all the time but it feels all the time like fighting a losing battle...at work theres always people finding fault and favouritism.....then at home no matter how much you help, the parent jumps on the one thing you didnt do. im trying to keep my spirits up but its hard when your daily faced with difficult people being awkward, because of me liking my own space too, theres no best friend or someone to talk to....i do have friends but not many locally now...i know lifes what you make, but i cant afford my own place til i find a decent job. things happen for reasons but i cant see any joy ....lifes feelin like groundhog day. i have smothering parents and dont feel ive rebelled ever, lifes always quiet n steady.....advice?

Hey monkey,

Life's a bitch eh?

Have a look through what you've written and see if you can find any positives.

It's easy to spot the negatives and if you're not careful it becomes a habit.

In your own head you can talk yourself into anything. It is much nicer to think positively but it takes work to start with.

good luck

Happy daze

socks up,chin up and chest out,lifes a rollercoaster,full of dips,swirls and highs,your just on a dip at the moment,after the dip comes a high,so your situations gonna get better! if your jobs cr*p why not do a part time/evening course? so when your going through tough times you can smile inside knowing your going to be out the rut soon!

oh for god's sake, get a life.
there's only you that can make the effort...

Work is most peoples outlet from home.....if the job is stressfull, change it.......and find a more satisfying group of work colleagues.

Once the job/work environment is sorted.....you have independance to choose where and with whom you live.

Above is the crux of most lives.

Change your job and find one that allows you to 'live in'.
This will give you independence of the folks, give you a bolt hole even if it is a room and if possible choose a job that is outdoors.
