Life is falling apart

In the past 2 weeks I have gone through so much CRAP, and it never seems to end. Just yesterday I discovered that I am allergic to the antibiotics I am taking to clear up the infection my impacted wisdom tooth has caused. Now I'm an itchy, red mess. I'm mad, because I just paid $40 for them, and now I have to go back and pay another $40 for new antibiotics, PLUS some hydrocortisone cream for my skin. I got paid on Friday, and by tomorrow, my entire paycheque will be gone towards rent, medications, bills and my dentist's appointment. Just great.
Ugh. Have you ever felt like your life is falling apart from around you?

Poor Bree - you're certainly having a run of crappy luck at the moment. Surely things can't get much worse! Yes, I think we DO have times when everything seems to pile on top of us - and sometimes it's a real effort to focus and wait it out. I really hope something nice happens for you soon - you deserve it!

Hi bree~ I am so sorry to hear that you have been going through
so much because of your tooth, but as I told you what happened
with me it can always be worse! I know right now you don't
want to hear that because it seems like this is the worst thing
in the world, but it will get better and then it will pass and
it will be on to the next thing because unfortunately that is
what life is all about! And sometimes life just plain sucks!
There I've said it! And I should know because I sure have had
plenty of sucky moments too! Try to think that it will just be
over soon and you will forget about it in a few weeks and be
on to the next the thing that hopefully will be alot happier!

I am so sorry, I have dental issues too and understand. I have money issues too, the lack of it. I hope the new antibiotics work good for you. Were I live some places like Walmart, Kroger have discounted antibiotics. We even have one store that has certain ones free, Meijer store. I would call around and get prices before buying the medicine. Good luck with clearing up the infection.

It is true when they said that sometimes, when it rains it pours. This goes to the not so good things as well. That is the sad part of life and we should not despair and continue to go on living. Life is still wonderful. You will always see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Just concentrate on getting well soon. Don't be so stressed up yeah, but I totally know how you feel.
I used to have to go back to and fro from home to the hospital to get something fixed. It was so time consuming and the stress was just tremendous, I wonder however did I went through it.

Yes, I've felt that and it's awful. But you have to remember that it will get better! At least now you know you have an allergy and can avoid that medicine from now on.
Things just pile on sometimes until it's nearly unbearable. Never give up, never give in!

Hey,
Yea I also think that life around us is totally falling apart, and I don't really know what to do about it. Everything is just getting so expensive, no one is actually able to pay for their bills, let alone go on holiday. Make sure you have a good day, Happy Lotting!!

It's a shame about the antibiotics...but in a way, it's also a good thing that it happened. Make sure that ALL of your medical records are updated with the name of the antibiotic that you had that reaction to. If there's an "I'm allergic to..." bracelet available, you might want to consider getting one. Down the road it could save your life. My husband and ste-daughter are both allergic to penicillin-type antibiotics and they both wear bracelets. My husband also carries a card with that info on it in his wallet. Do the same if you don't want to get the bracelet.
Now, NO MORE BAD STUFF...you've used up your annual allotment of it, ok? Nothing but good stuff for the rest of the year!

Yeah, I feel like my life is falling apart. The girl I've always loved, dreamed, cared about, and was a close friend of mine is now gone. School is starting to become challenging for me. I'm starting to get slapped in the face with reality. Reality sucks and I'm not ready for it yet. I think my depression is coming back at random ttimes. My A.D.D doesn't help either. If I were God, I would make everyone's life 100% better.

Hi,I have also got something like this.I flunk in the final examination which is a required course,so I lost a lot of chances comparing with others. I felt so sad that I really wanted to leave school.But the think was just last for a while. The examination is just a part of my life,beside it I have family,friends,interests and so on.And the result of examintion just tell me that I am not work enough hard on my study.A different think make the differet mood. When the Lord closes a door,somewhere he opens a window.You can have a try to find the good part of the life.

I feel like this alot seems like its just never possible to stay one step ahead. Everytime something good happens theres something bad not far behind. Im trying to start looking at things in a different way ...like instead of being unhappy about things look at the things i have to be thankful for ...my health, my family, my home. I think if i could get threw this finanical crisis things might start getting easier to deal with on an emotional end of things. Good luck with your problems and try to do something nice and relaxing for yourself today :)
