Have the good cry! Hugs.  

Hearing you and feeling for you....sending love and compassion your way! hang in there!!!! 

I highly recommend the good cry. I did that last night. Everything piled and piled and piled until finally I just decided to cry.. and do dishes. Today I feel much better. 

perhaps an attitude adjustment is what they need. 

That's a bad feeling. Let your feelings be known and maybe you can get them to show you the love and respect you deserve. 

Any chance you can take a day or weekend away by yourself? We all need time to clear our space and our heads. Even if it's just a roadtrip an hour or two away with one night in a hotel. I love driving on the highway at night with the windows down and sunroof open. Even that helps some! 

I went on strike on mine years ago lol they were begging me in no time. When they have no clean laundry or cooked food sitting on the table for them it tends to sink in! 

I sure will pray for you! I know the feeling all too well. Yeah, I agree with Jadsl, stand up for yourself! 

Girl I know what your talking about I just gain back 8 pounds back of the 67 that I lost and thats not the half of it, I still have a 118 pounds to lose I'm a very emotional eater happy, sad, or just downright pissed off, I eat anything and everything. I had to remove all the carbs and sugared items from the house and the fridge it all had to go, for my self defense and health  

And you have to learn to say no it strange and feel uncomfortable at first, but your well being and your health you need to learn to do it 

“Jesus answered, “If anyone [really] loves Me, he will keep My word (teaching); and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our dwelling place with him.” ‭‭JOHN‬ ‭14:23‬ ‭AMP‬‬ U need to remember this. Happiness come from realizing how much u are loved by Him. Praying for u. 

Take yourself for a long walk and push out the tears. Then think about what you need to do to change your situation at home. Do you work, and are you able to leave? Could you stop doing some of your chores and delegate them to another family member? Or is this about appreciation, and not the housekeeping itself? 

Prayers and hugs as I was in your shoes for too many years. Please take care of yourself. 

I wish you all the happiness. Stay strong! Maybe you can treat yourself with a spa day and remind yourself that you deserve the best. 

I, too, am praying for you. Life, at times, is just plain hard. Our loved ones sometimes don't realize just how difficult they can make our lives. I feel many of us struggle with unfulfilled expectations. A good cry may be in order...and as Raejane added, God loves you more than you will ever realize and he has promised to be with you always. I often find myself falling back into his arms...try it, it's heavenly! 

Your "screen name" says it all WAITS FOR LIFE. Whatcha waiting for? Don't wait for others to appreciate you. Know that you ARE a good person and deserve more than what you feel you are getting. I don't know your situation details, but I do know there is no sense in waiting around for what we want, go out and get it! One more thing...next time you're upset and want to fill the void with food, try and take care of yourself, and that includes your body. By giving in to emotional eating you won't be hurting them, only yourself! 

Wow! For a minute I though I was reading my own post! I say things like that all of the time. I say that my family treats me like a used car: They don't care about it anymore because it's not new, but they don't want to get rid of it because it's so reliable. (gosh, so dark!) But I find myself feeling like that. I'll tell you what, I won't cheat myself if you don't cheat yourself. Deal? This might help too, because maybe I can tell people that I'm "helping a friend" so that they lay off, (saboteurs), and maybe I can tell myself that I'm "helping a friend" so I don't sabotage myself. I've been navigating a lot of dark buried emotions lately. It did dawn on me that people only treat me as well as I treat myself. Treating myself better, with my brutal do-all for everyone-else life, has been tough. Really tough. But I think I'm getting better at it. (i hope. i'm trying!) 

RCkc is RIGHT ON!!!! Tell them to get off their butts and do for themselves. You deserve some down time! 

Thank you all for your words of Encouragement and Understanding! You have no idea how much it has helped me! I didn't give in to the food. I went for a very long walk, sometimes a Fast Angry walk, and at times a Slow Tearful walk, But it has helped me clear my thoughts and get myself back on track. Again, thank you for taking time out of your day to Encourage me and To restore my Strength! May God bless you all tenfold!!!! 

Many women feel this way as we are the caregivers. I as you too, need to learn to care for myself!
