I have been feeling very upset and depressed of late and I couldn’t figure out the reason.and I am still trying to figure that out.I have been in a lot of pain and my moods have been up and down and all over the place,and I am sorry I really am sorry for it but I can’t change how my moods are being i am not in my meds that I should be on that I am not on since the insurance company stopped paying on them.
I thought having My slave here doing what she loves doing would help My depression and it did for a little bit.Then I got overwhelmed by everything day in and day out.and I think it has become to much for Me. She is not happy I can see and feel it.
Everything felt so right so comfortable to be waited on hand and foot.but after a lil while it became to much, I do anything for Myself and she would look at me like I had just smacked her and stole something from her. sorry but I was raised to be a strong independent woman.And her doing everything feels like she is enabling Me.
Definition from the Wikipedia
In a negative sense, enabling is also used in the context of problematic behavior, to signify dysfunctional approaches that are intended to help but in fact may perpetuate a problem.[1][2] A common theme of enabling in this latter sense is that third parties take responsibility, blame, or make accommodations for a person’s harmful conduct (often with the best of intentions, or from fear or insecurity which inhibits action). The practical effect is that the person them self does not have to do so, and is shielded from awareness of the harm it may do, and the need or pressure to change. It is a major environmental cause of addiction.[3]
A common example of enabling can be observed in the relationship between the alcoholic/addict and a codependent spouse. The spouse believes incorrectly that he or she is helping the alcoholic by calling into work for them, making excuses that prevent others from holding them accountable, and generally cleaning up the mess that occurs in the wake of their impaired judgment.[citation needed] In reality what the spouse is doing is hurting, not helping. Enabling prevents psychological growth in the person being enabled and can contribute to negative symptoms in the enabler.
One of the primary purposes of a formal Family Intervention with alcoholics/addicts is to help the family cease their enabling behaviors.
Generally, individuals who enable others have weak boundaries, low self-esteem, and have difficulty being assertive when they communicate with others.
I don’t know what I want anymore,I have NO sex drive, I have NO desire to beat anyone, I have no desire to even be waited on in any way at all really.
It isn’t that I hate that she does it I just feel like I have no drive or purpose anymore. I wake up and she does everything and I love the she cooks and and cleans and is there for company and everything.
I sleep in the bed with her in one room one night and the next night I sleep in the bed with My husband and I feel like a ping pong ball bouncing back and forth and it is killing Me in a way. and I can’t explain it and I don’t think I should have to.
I am in so much pain and everything annoys me!!!! I just want to hide away from everything. I want thing to go back to the way things were before in some ways not all ways but some ways. but if I try to do that then I am not paying attention to her and she feels abandoned and then that makes Me feel like shit and then I spend more time with her and I feel like i am ignoring My Husband rather he says I am or not I still feel that way and I can’t and will not change how I feel.
I came to a conclusion after she and I talked…. she has asked Me many of times if I want her to leave. and I have told her NO I don’t I want you to stay here. but if she asks Me that one more time I will tell her “No again, and then say if you ask Me that ONE more time you better go pack your shit!” and I will not back down from that I mean it.Well she didn’t learn anything and I kept My word and gave her 2 weeks and she left on the 22 of April.
We are still rearangeing everthing that she moved and making this back into Our home and it is starting to feel like a home again.
Am I sorry that she left no,it just didn’t work out but it was a life experience that I will never forget. I think if I get a sub or slave it will be part time only.24/7 at this point in time is to overwhelming for Me. You learn new things each day and the days that she was here I learned a great deal about Myself. all I can say to her is this ” Thank you”
