I sweat constantly even if I do nothing . I am sweating right now for example. I do think I have some medical condition but I have always been like thisand I have learnt to adequately deal with this ( yes I split infinitive s)

sweating is a mechanism to prevent your body from over heating. if you do cardio and do not sweat you have not tried hard enough.

except when swimming because then you get immediately cooled down by the water

You're on a linguistics forum. No one cares if you split your infinitives. Many people here probably do as well.

Today's Mother's Day has been terrible. I forgot about it so my mom was really sad, then she used it to extort 200 dollars of stuff from my dad that he wanted to use for new glasses in two years, then I pissed my mom off by telling her "this is your day to fuck people over" in response to "this is MY day so why do I have to suffer" (she ran to my door and smashed it so hard I had to stand against it and brace lest she smash it off the hinges) and oh god it's been terrible. All three of us feel like shit and hate each other and we've been fighting all day.

My family is a complete pit of misery and hatred.

Incidentally, this 'mother's day is not a privilige it is my right as a mother to receive something for mothers day''' thing seems to occur in more families.

I know someone who wanted to prepare a breakfast for his mother, but on the day it turned out Mother was already out of bed before they had finished the breakfast. And she became extremely angry at this, because she found that it is her Right as a Mother to recieve a Breakfast for Mother's Day.

Of course I think that's very silly. If you receive something for mother's day it is a privilidge and a sign of the love and care from your children and husband. But you cannot DEMAND something for mother's day.

I am happy that it was never such a big deal in my family.

I am not bullying him. I have seen on multiple occasions that he is very defeatist in general I recognize his situation is bad. I recognize that he has a lot of problems and that his problems are real. But you can have different attitudes towards it. You can throw your hands into the air and say 'GAAH nothing will ever come from me, I'm useless ! I am horrible ! I am messed up !' Or: you can stand up and actually do something about it.

And even if you cannot do that yourself, there are people who are able to help you do it.

How is that bullying? I am being supportive. I see he has many problems and I am trying to give an incentive for him to actually do something about it.

And you like the Frozen song? That's how you reply? Haven't you got a bridge to sit under?[/quote]
I am only trying to help ! Stop being so negative.
And what is wrong with liking the Frozen song? Hater.

Sirdanilot: You're not supportively telling him he can stand up and change his situation ... you're reproaching him for not having done so. I don't know anyone who would call that supportive.

And the issue is not with the song from Frozen. It's with the fact that that was the only thing you replied to in that post. You had just been called out for being unsupportive, presumptuous and judgemental, just as I have reiterated.

Edit: Do not reply, SirDanilot. See above.

So he does.

Slept badly again last night. That just seems to be my life now. My husband can't help having to get up often during the night and I can't help waking up when he does. Could be much worse, of course, but damn is it frustrating. Sometimes I feel like my entire adult life has just been a failed struggled to reach a point where I can dependably get a full night's sleep more than a couple times in a week.
