You (collective) are here for me so much whether you want or not, so I want to make sure you know I'm here for you too. If you have any vents and don't want to make a thread for them, I'm here. :3

    The last four months of my life have been some of the shittiest of my life. My wife has been so sick we're in the ER like a dozen times a month. I have to do everything to take care of her and frequently have to stay awake all night too make sure she keeps breathing.

    My car completely died and I had to buy a new one. My boiler has a pipe burst and my basement flooded. My oven hasn't been working for months but I can't fix it cause I'm so busy taking care of everything else. My animals are all suffering from the lack of attention too.

    I've also got enough medical problems that I'm considered 100% disabled. So I've been in a hell of lot of pain this whole time I'm taking care of her.

    Oh and my brother died on my mom's 60th birthday.

    It has been pure hell and I don't know how I'm going to make it through. I try not to complain because my wife's life is so much worse but holy fuck I'm dieing.

      Please do complain. Even if you want to focus on your wife then think of it like this: she needs you and she needs you at your best, and venting will help you get slightly better by letting some of your pain out. We are here for you. 🫂
