I don’t believe it

I no longer believe him. She’s passed? I don’t believe it. Call it denial but when? He withholds everything and this isn’t the first death I’ve been kept from grieving over. This is wrong and he knows it. I am sorry that she chose this path and couldn’t speak directly to me. They all are intimidated to the point of silence? What? I’m not suicidal, never have been and I have not been physically violent. I adored her and had no anger left, it is pain and hurt from loosing them, her ecspecially. She was like a mother but chose to ridicule and harass me over the most painful experience in my life. And my own mother, who hates me, told her things, that are lies. Insecure Women, hate me, always have. I know the difference because confident women have zero issue and know how to communicate issues, they ask the hard questions and, they aren’t mean. I cannot be manipulated by them anymore or antagonized, for fun. It is not a relationship that fosters honesty or growth.

After this last six years, I deserve better from anyone in my life. I loved her and everyone around her wanted her to hurt me the worst and they used her. That is why I walked away from her. That is why I’ve walked from my son. Using people to hurt others isn’t something I can stand by even when I need them.And I am alone. I’m going to hurt loosing her the most. I will never understand why or how he could do this.

Communication

They don’t speak to me. They only speak about me. They do not invite, include or try to engage with me on any level other than accusing and judging. Hearsay and gossip has played a role in all relationships, my whole life and I do not trust or want to engage with people who based their opinions of me off a spokesperson who has that much animosity towards me. To dislike and disrespect a person for that long without communicating is a form of harassment. I have not bothered anyone from my past, from other families or reached out to his. All spoken was from him and them. I have kept to myself to keep my personal thoughts to myself. Invading my privacy, publicly shaming me and discussing my personal life shows your lack of character and compassion. I choose to stay quiet about the things that have been shared.That is controlling my emotions and not reacting to drama. I would appreciate them to mind their own and leave me alone. I was voted out and have recently learned how you were trying to get me, to be taken out of state just so you can walk away clean.

The truth will come out.
And I’m sorry to the ones doing the harm, but saying it out loud Again…
You, trying to control natural order, is careless. There are far worse consequences, to messing with Faith, than hurting someone directly.
When you alter and soil, yes shit on, someone else’s life, out of malice and spite, with ill intent, you set off a chain reaction of events that result in harming others.
That is exactly why, you do not go around hurting people out of pride, vengeance and ego! It, hurts, other, people!

If I were in that family, I’d be taking a serious look at all involved and question the motives for doing what was done. Take the mirror out!
Stop looking at my life and start looking inside your soul and why would you think doing what you’ve done is healthy for anyone involved? It is wrong and I’m going to be talking about it in order to heal from it. I will be asking questions and I will be naming names. It is wrong on so many levels and it is not a matter of move on, let go or forget about it! I have goals for my future. I am watching him be pulled and I do not want it anymore for that reason alone. He did choose them, he chose his family over us, my family over us and his life over Us. I have no choice but to choose me only. I keep giving to someone who hates me and it is self deprivation at this point. I am going to have a impasse with how and where to go because I cannot maintain this house or upset their family members. I’m not involved or invited and I have no context overall of their situations. I no longer believe them, read into what they tell me or trust them and it was designed for that purpose. I am not giving them the effort or anything since they cannot show me the respect of transparency or accountability for the past six years. They prefer to set me up, rather than be honest over what they have done, instead of communicating. But keep telling yourself and them, you can’t talk to me.

I’m Learning That Support Can Look Different Than I Expected

I used to think support had to come from one person who really understood everything. Lately, I’ve started seeing it more like a web. One person might understand trauma. Someone else understands being neurodivergent. A peer support group can give me the relief of hearing, “Me too.” A meditation community can help me slow down. Sometimes my partner helps just by sitting beside me when my brain is overloaded.

That has taken some pressure off my relationships. No one person has to meet every emotional need I have, and I don’t have to find the perfect person who understands every part of me.

As someone who is autistic, has ADHD, and lives with mental health challenges, connection matters a lot to me. Isolation can make everything feel heavier, but connection doesn’t always have to mean a deep conversation. Sometimes it’s attending a support group, sending a message, playing D&D with people I enjoy, meditating with others, or simply being around someone who feels safe.

I’m starting to think a healthy support system is less like finding one perfect lifeline and more like building lots of small bridges. Some are strong enough to carry the hard stuff. Others are simply places where I can laugh, learn, rest, or feel like myself.

I need all of those bridges.

Teamwork Makes The Dream Work Leadership Training Series Part 2 www.youtube.com/watch

Teamwork Makes The Dream Work Leadership Training Series Part 2 www.youtube.com/watch

Teamwork makes the dreamwork is the phrase that stuck with me the most from the first training viedo.
The insights that I gained from the first training video include how how hard it is to be a successful leader and what skills you have to have.
The most critical things that I learned from the first training video were how hard it is to be a successful leader, what it takes to be a successful leader, and do never give up on your dreams.
To be a successful leader you to attend every meeting, be a people person, want to do it, have all the required support, and carry out all of the necessary duties and responsibilities.
One great strategy that help people figure out if they have what it takes to be a successful leader is writing down all of their personal strengths and assets, technology skills, as well as any relationships that they may have with other people, and what community or eligibly supports they may have.

Leadership is defined as the action of leading a group of people or an organization.
Some leadership roles include working with a group or organization towards a common goal, organizing tasks, problem solving and using everyone’s strengths.
Leaders should never overpromise there time, but instead make a promise about they are going to do.
Some examples of things that leaders should promise include making their role full or part time, who will support them, and what their responsibilities are.
There are many things that people should consider before becoming a leader such as if they have any other commitments, are you physically, emotionally, and mentally able to take on this role right now, and do have the right skills and resources for this role?
One way that people can figure out if they have what it takes to be a leader is by writing down their technology skills, personal assets and strengths, as well as their relationship, and community and eligibility specific supports.
Last but not least, before a people decides if they want to become a leader they should figure out if they actually want to take on the role by asking themselves questions like would I truly enjoy it, would I rather do something else, and should I talk to someone who has experience in this role?
