Because it’s not. It’s endlessly frustrating but I have my moments.

No I completely understand, my sister thinks because I don’t work that my life is easy. But it is not I struggle every day with the little things, I am sure you do the same.

I do look up to you as having come through the worst. I know you tend no to focus on the negative. Of course we all have challenges… but since I don’t see you writing about everything that gets you down…
I figured you were doing pretty well.

Mine is relentless too. My uncle thinks my mom babies me, but it’s not that way at all. Everyday is a mental stress.

I can tell from when you post about neighbours that many days are anything but easy. Massive props to you for all you have accomplished and continue to accomplish, sir.

@77nick77 you are one of the most positive people on this forum and I very much respect you for that. We all have our moments whereby we get small breakthroughs…some doing better than others at times. Yesterday when I went fishing I felt like crap for the first two hours. Then all of a sudden I felt good for awhile and then really enjoyed most of the outing even though we didn’t catch anything. It’s how it goes. People think we’re fine but we have our limitations with illness.

It is hard for me to imagine what your illness is like. But mad props for holding down a job and living on your own. Anyone who is doing that is doing all they need to do.
For me it is unimaginable to deal with people in a professional setting for more than 5 minutes.
No we understand, anyone who battles drug and/or alcohol problems and sz has two full-time part-time jobs. And working on top of that, that’s a mighty full plate. And making it sound easy when it never is, is hard work.
I find there’s always an internal pressure to try make it all seem easy, so people won’t worry about you or feel sorry for you. People feeling sorry for me… I can’t stand that.
your life doesn’t sound easy…but i admire you for your fortitude.
take care 
I dont think that any of us have easy lives. Seriously. Keep your head up, be proud to have overcome all that you have.
Had a hard 15 years. All I see is smooth sailing from now on. Now that I’m living sustainably
