I’m Supplementing My Diet

with Super B-Complex vitamins.
I have added energy now.
However, my urine is now radioactive-green, and I have begun to sing songs such as
LIVING (IN?) LA VIDA LOCA and LIKE A VIRGIN and OOPS I DID IT AGAIN.
Is it just me or is that a bad sign?
Should I stop taking the vitamin?

Right now nothing holds my attention. Just flying by the seat of my pants.
Lunch in 15 minutes.
Going home to throw a load of laundry in, and, possibly, nap.

Janet’s not feeling well.
She’s stuffy and achy.
I’ll be checking on her.

Thanks to those of you who offered support by commenting on my previous post (‘Today is not The Day’.)

I talked to mom.
It was a calm meeting.
But there was no change, no attempt to understand, which I don’t hold against her because, really, very very few people would understand my and Janet’s dynamic.
But there was no offer of support, no apology for upsetting me with her and Sister’s reactions.

Only, among other things, her repeated entreaties of ‘don’t go’ or ‘don’t leave me’ as if I were about to abandon her.

I assured her that I’m not abandoning anyone.
That I’m not dying or dead.
I’ll just be somewhere else, with the woman and the little people who make me very happy…..

I’m saddened by her deaf ears.
She’s my mom and I love her, and my family,
But I am saddened by her deaf ears.

I may need to get some of those vitamins myself! I don't know the dynamics between you and your mom but I'm sure she will come around when she can see how happy you truly are when you are together. Letting go and having to share your love might be difficult for her. Especially if you have relied on one another. Again, I don't know the history of your relationship though. Enjoy your visit with Janet!

Must feel hard for you talking to a "deaf mum". I can read between the lines you love her a lot but you also want some support which you dont get enough. Remember its your life Don! She needs to deal with it weather she likes it or not. I am sure you will get enough support from others but understand you just want HER support! TC !

Don, I'm sorry your Mom is feeling the way she is. Please remember that your life is your own. You can't live it for anyone else but you. And most of all, you can't sacrifice YOUR happiness for the happiness of others. It just won't work. She'll get over it or maybe she won't. Would you get over it, if you stayed from Janet for your Mom? That wouldn't be right or fair.

I take B6 every day..and mine is yellow (not that you wanted that info)LOL. I tell everybody about B6...it's great..not sure about the green thing tho...

Your mom loves you hun...just give her some time. *hugs* I'm sure she will come around...just hang in there. I know it sucks that she doesn't give yall her support..but remember she comes from a different place...and it will have to take a little more time for her. I'm not trying to take up for her or anything. I just want you all to be happy. *hugs*

My B vitamins turn my pee bright, bright yellow.And there's nothing more that I can say on here about your Mom that I haven't said over the phone, so I'll just pepper this with .

I'm glad you finally had the talk with your mom and I'm sorry that you haven't found the support you hoped to receive. However, I'm happy to hear that you aren't going to let their selfishness hold you back from your much-deserved happiness.

Keep taking those vitamins! I think it's partially being in love and knowing she'll be with you soon too I think your family will come around Don. Unfortunately it will take time and it's hard to be patient and trust. I am working on making my own decisions no matter what others think. It's not easy but it's the only way I'm going to earn my own respect and be happy

we can't pick our family, they are just given to us. my suggestion is just forgive your family for their non-acceptance. you have to live your own life and find your own happiness. you (both) have a circle of friends here who are supporting and encouraging and following this journey with you. and don't forget the Angels!
