I always do things ass about

My first introduction thread after being here FOREVER..... because I always do things backwards...
Velvz. Bipolar.... type? Not sure. I walked out of the psychiatrists office the day he tried putting me on more meds. That was a decade ago.
Anxiety issues. OCD issues. Occasional SH concerns. Checkered history of substance abuse.
I manage for the most part by exercising, good healthy food and good sleep practices. Substances these days are 3 drinks maximum and I'm rat assed.
I work full time. Study part time. Bought my own house years ago. On my own. Ok the bank helped lol!!! Most days for me are 10-14 hours depending. That's work and study and house things and exercise.
At the moment I'm struggling because I believe I've burnt myself out and pushed myself into hypomania. I'm all over the shop. Been here before but no psychosis stuff. Woo.
Oh man I don't know what else to say. No kids. Love kids. But conscious decision not to have my own. Love men. But sadly I'm intolerant to relationships after a while. Moody ππ
Animals and music are my passions.
Yeh so..... **** awkward silence***
velvz.

SO tonight it came to a head.
Hobbit went home after day out with his mum and youngest. His exes 22 year old son moved back a while ago and heβs a no good so and so.
He physically assaulted my hobbit. I knew it was going to happen. I just knew it.
Its like assaulting a duckling. This guy is just so..... marshmallow gentle.
So much worry here.

Heβs ok apparently. He is sick of being taken for a ride by people, something I understand. So he said something and gets attacked. He stood up for himself. Iβve offered to teach him some self defence/have it arranged.
Heβs been a gravy train for that woman and her son for too long.
Hopefully I get to speak to him today, He went to his mums last night with the little kiddy I met. They are ok.
Im stunned too. Angry. Sad. Worried. Tired. Barely slept.
Thanks for letting me vent on here. Iβll make coffees. ππ

Vent away my friend.
i wouldn't want that 22 yo around my other kids. Good that he went to his mums. I hope the kiddy didn't see it. Document all this with dates and times, photos ...you know what I mean.

I know right. The 22 year old does nothing but bludge off people, use drugs and plays computer games.
Hobbit is going to get the last of his stuff today and leaving. I told him to disconnect any utility in his name as legally he is responsible for it.
YAY I am at work on minimal sleep. URGH,

Good idea. I think he has good grounds for her not being able to take the kids away. Idon't think they should be around her son at all. Is he going to his mum's? No wonder the guy has depression. Used, manipulated, abused. You're a good person Velvz, you really are. You've stuck by him but there is only so much you can take too.
Yes definitely disconnect utilities.
I really hope that house sells fast. Any nibbles yet?

Yeh the day i met him I saw the depression and anxiety in the way he held himself and interacted with me, (a mere stranger then). That ex and her 22 year old son from another daddy, are lazy self serving entitled pieces of dirt!!!!!! She saw him as a meal ticket then and still does now. Makes me so angry.
He is at his mums now. He has had enough. He has the 10 year old. The 14 year old is at a friends big birthday sleepover bash LOL. As for custody and those kinds of arrangements I have no idea. That's for them to fight about. I can merely just be there and advise accordingly.
This woman moved her kid into that house on purpose in my opinion KNOWING it would eventually explode. And it did. GRR.
I am at work. So tired. I don't want to be here I want to help him.
He is really the biggest sook out. I am more fiesty. He calls me a tornado.

All good. Hungover though πππ
Hobbit spent night and cooked dinner.
I am so proud of him. He is taking steps now to sort his life out. So proud too heβs woken up and making a stand regarding being used and abused.
So proud.
so hungover π

hehehe, drink 4-5 glasses of coconut water. Apparently regular consumption of coconut water prevents hangovers.
Good for him. Maybe that jerk assaulting him was a wake up call.
