I'm so sorry, Kait. That's so sad. I lost my grandmother earlier this Summer, so I have an idea what your going through. Hang in there. We're all here if you need to talk.
Thank you. I'm in this weird place where I'm okay with him passing because he's been fighting so long and deserves some rest and that's just how life goes, but I also don't want my favorite person to be gone forever.
thats exactly how I felt when my father died last year. Hugs to you
My grandpa went ever so peacefully yesterday afternoon. He waited for my grandma to come home from the dentist before he closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep. He was joking and casting his Irish charm on everyone until the end.
He is a veteran of WWII, stationed at the Great Wall and the Forbidden City. He enrolled in the Marines at 16, somehow convincing his mother to sign the papers. He was on a ship with orders to attack Japan if the peace treaty was not signed.
He was our family's biggest cheerleader and our great protector.
Sounds like he built a great foundation for your family. Big hugs to you, very sorry for your loss.

Sorry for your loss but on the (somewhat) positive side it sounds like it was a peaceful and loving goodbye. Especially waiting for your grandma before passing. Hoping the best for you during this time.

I hate making big decisions that could potentially affect my entire life. I live with my parents and want to get out on my own. I don't mind living with them but I hate how they treat me like a child. I'm 31 years old and if I want to go shopping or go to a concert, then I shouldn't have to tell anyone where I'm going and when I'll be back. Anyways, I've been house hunting recently and just this weekend found a great deal but there's a catch. My dilemma is this: Do I pay cash for a large fixer upper with a huge backyard located in a small town (pop. 1,000), 40 miles from my friends and family? or Do I get a 30-year mortgage (not sure if I can even qualify for one - my credit is pretty bad) and get a smaller house with practically no backyard (my dog wouldn't be too happy) in a decent size city (pop. 35,000) and close to my friends and family? This decision is literally making me sick. I've had an upset stomach ever since touring the fixer upper over the weekend. It's an amazing house that I would never be able to afford if it were located closer to the city. However, I'm afraid that I'll buy the house and then not be happy about living so far away from friends, family and my favorite stores & restaurants. Like my dad said, I could always buy it, fix it up and then sell it if I don't like living there. I'm always welcome to move back to my parent's home if doesn't work out. However, the house needs a lot of work so I'm not sure I would even be able to make my money back after fixing it up. Plus it would probably sit on the market forever because most people don't want to live in these small towns. On the other hand, I love all of those shows on HGTV where they fix up houses (Property Brothers, Rehab Addict, Flip or Flop, Income Property, etc) so maybe it could just be a fun project house for me, even if I don't make my money back. Ugh, such difficult decisions. Grrrrrrr....
Also, sorry for your loss heyyitskait. Your grandpa reminds me of my grandpa. He's 95 and also a WWII vet. He was a firefighter stationed on Iwo Jima. Whenever a plane crashed, he had to save the pilot and put out the fires. He has all kind of cool (and sometimes sad) war stories and I'm going to miss him when he's gone. His wife of 61 years (my grandma) died 3 years ago. It sucks losing grandparents (or any close relative).

Do you know people who can help remodel the house? Any family of friends work in construction trades? Have any friends that could split costs?

Sorry for your loss and so glad he went peacefully. thinking of you and your family
I feel like the absolute worst parent in the world.. Mental health issues suck.
Yeah, they really do. We tend to be our worse critics and I know first hand how mental health issues can amplify that critic. I'll keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers.

Sold something on Ebay, was supposed to be delivered on Tuesday but the post office "lost" it temporarily. The tracking says its still lost but the post office is telling me it was delivered. Guy who bought the item is claiming it was not delivered.
I realized this morning when it took me an hour to get out of bed and after debating texting my instructor that my car wouldn't start so I wouldn't have to go to class that I am struggling with a down period.. I am missing Ohio (15 years of hating it there I never saw this coming) and my friends and I am just dealing with stressors that I don't want to deal with and I'd rather just stay in bed and sleep all day than actually deal with life. Overall, its nothing any more or less than normal life stuff that everyone has to deal with it. But I've just been feeling really down this past week or so. I know why, but I don't know what to do about it.
It is rare that I can actively identify when I'm feeling like this due to depression rather than just being stressed or actually homesick. I feel like that is a huge improvement, but it doesn't help me at all with actually dealing with it. In addition to this, my antidepressant script is almost gone and I no longer have insurance to refill it. Thanks to America's super duper awesome medical system.

I'm really sorry you're going through this. I've been diagnosed with depression and I'm sure moving to a new part of the country for grad-school can add a lot of stress to you're life. Have you tried looking into an antidepressant that would be covered by the $4 generic program that a lot of pharmacies offer? Maybe you can go to a clinic at the school you attend and see if a doctor there can switch you to a medication covered under that plan. I'll be thinking a good thought for you.

This is a quality suggestion. I don't know about your school, but Tennessee had a pretty nice array of medical options that were either free or reduced cost for students. I know you could get a certain amount of therapy for free.

At UNT we had the option of x amount of therapy sessions for free. I believe after that you paid on a sliding scale. But I think the amount was 13 a semester so you rarely had to worry about paying.
These things are totally free, regardless of having insurance? I've never heard that. If I can get my script in generic for $4 I'd ecstatic. The fact that I only have like two-ish weeks left is making me anxious. They make such a huge difference for me.

It depends on the university. Check out the counseling services for your school. It's probably on their website somewhere. Re: the $4 scripts, I think that's a thing that pharmacies like Wal-Mart's run where certain drugs are super cheap regardless of insurance.

Definitely follow their advice and check it out. With a school as big and with as much funding as UT, I'd be shocked if they didn't have a pretty comprehensive program.

Technically the therapy sessions aren't free because part of your fees you pay with your tuition covers that. So, you've already paid for it along with your library fee and all the other fees. Several pharmacies have the $4 generic co-pay program. Walmart, Target & Kroger have $4 for 30 days generic programs while CVS has a $11.99 for 90 days generic program and Walgreens has a $12 for 90 days generic program. Here is a good comparison of all of the programs.

You can find super cheap generics for most SSRI's.

you're at the university of texas, right? i found this on the site, which could be helpful if you were considering counseling in addition to the medication. i used the university counseling program when i was in school, and it made a huge difference having a neutral party to work through all of the life changes that moving/starting a new chapter can bring on. i hope that all of these feelings pass quickly and you can feel like yourself again. until then, send me your texas address and i'll fill your mailbox with happy mail. <3 cmhc.utexas.edu/appointments.html
