I haven't had a job for a year now. And my whole thing right now is that I was going to weekly therapy sessions and all of that. I have to be doing something or my mom would kick me out. This kind of fills the void of not working or going to school. The sad thing is that I was mainly going just to placate my mom. I never got used to going to therapy and I always hated it. Well about a month ago, the receptionists had already left and I was supposed to call in an appointment but I never did. The anxiety of having to call in beat out me scheduling another one while I was there. I keep putting it off. It's been a month now, I don't even know if I could call back there and pick up where I left off. Now I've become incredibly anxious all the time because I'm worried about my mom finding out. And if I do this long enough she IS going to find out, but I still can't pick up the phone and call. Not to mention after all the time I'm just embarrassed about going back there. It's just embarrassing that I haven't made any real progress at all, I don't know if I can face my counselor. Not to mention the prescription I had I missed taking for a week and now it doesn't even work anymore. Was it just a placebo? I'm too embarrassed to tell my doctor it wasn't even working. I haven't left the house for a month except where I pretend to go and I just drive around places.
It's like when I dropped out of community college and never told my mom and kept pretending like I was going and I was a nervous wreck the whole time. Eventually she found out and exploded at me and forced me to get a job. Even then I sucked shit and only really got one because she had a friend and pretty much got it for me. Then I stopped going to that and then another job and spent nearly a year doing nothing until she set up these therapy sessions. But now I've betrayed her again. I stopped going and I'm lying to her about it. I'm a horrible person. I wish I could stop doing these awful things to her.
I've thought a lot about suicide, but after all the terrible things I've put my family through, this would be even worse.
I'm a failure. I wish I never had to be this huge burden on my mother. I wish I could have a place of my own and never have to work or see anyone. I wish I could truly step out of society and live by myself. I don't care about having friends or having a normal life any more, I just hate what I do to my mom, I want to be gone and stop messing up her life.
Then I come to this forum that I only post things in when I feel bad and cry for sympathy and never help anyone else with their problems. I'm the worst.
