Aws. I'm the same way though... when they pull and jerk at my hair I can't say it hurts. xD

How did the sleep study turn out? Did they say if you stop breathing in your sleep? That's scary stuff.. my "fake" dad does that. His heart stops beating too. Pretty sure that's how he'll die. gonk But I guess of all the things to kill you dying in your sleep wouldn't be so bad. He has to sleep with a mask on.. but it still happens anyway. I hope you don't have this problem. crying


No idea yet.
Still waiting for the test results.

eek His heart!!
Jeez! That's horrifying!!

I dont even know if a mask can fix that!! xd

Ahh. Labs can be so slow!! scream

Yeah, he's got a lot of problems. He doesn't take care of himself very well. He used to do drugs and be an alcoholic, and his favorite foods are everything terrible. xD Fried, lots of beef, freaking pork rinds! He doesn't do drugs anymore, rarely drinks, and he is -better- about his eating habits. But the damage was done. He takes a lot of meds now. He has had at least 2 heart attacks that I know of and he has a stint now.. which I don't fully understand what that is. xD It all just shows you how much you have to watch what you put in your body.

Yesterday, I was feeling
really down sweatdrop

The holidays are coming up
and I cannot get used to being alone.
I also have a pit in my chest emotion_facepalm

Last year was the first
time Id ever been invited to spend
Thanksgiving with my dad and his family neutral

It bothers me...they never invited
my brother when he was alive.

A random quote helped yesterday.

"When I let go of who I am,
I become what I might be"
Lao Tzu

I think that's something I can do ^^

Okay...

Mom is pretty much a
ticking time bomb at this point neutral
She wants to move. My house...my house is
pretty horrible.

I'm gonna be honest.
My gramma is a hoarder sweatdrop

Has anyone ever lived with
someone who suffers from this?

It's bad. It's very very bad.
Bugs.

I had an itchy ear today.
Cleaned it out, found a beetle leg.

emotion_facepalm I'm at my wits end.
She keeps everything and its creating a
problem. Gramma has half the house
to herself and I've never EVER been able
to walk back there to her room.

WE'VE BEEN HERE FOR 9 YEARS scream

She has things still in boxes from when we first moved in!!!!
I stuck my hand in one once
and poked myself on an old broken pin.

She has the dining room (it has a chimney and everything)
She has her own hallway and bathroom
and a room.

Its ALL stuffed with boxes and trinkets.

sweatdrop All I want is to
see the place look better.

Mom wants to trash it all.
Gramma wants to keep it.

Yikes. That sounds terrifying! Have you considered taking her to see a therapist, perhaps?

Yeah sweatdrop

Her stubborn nature
is kind of like a brick wall confused
The word therapy is cast off like it means nothing.

I'm more understanding then
anyone else sweatdrop
She's just scared of needing something
in the unforeseen future.

Annnnd, what if you took her somewhere, to a park for the day, and clean out the house and chuck it all away, and say it was burglars? That's perhaps a little cruel, but I really can't think of anything else...

Oh dear.
On tv it says doing that to a hoarder can cause
psychological damage.

My gentle plan would be
to sit down with her and go through the boxes.

Moms plan is...basically the same as yours xd

My grandma was a hoarder too. She had to move out of her own house it got si bad. She lives in a retirement home now but she loves it.

Try and get her to get rid of one small thing at a time.. then she starts to get used to the idea. Hopefully.
