I am so sorry but this is going to be a total vent post and I hate these too so I am sincerely apologizing in advance but I’m about to crack and I need to get this out of my system.
And I’m drunk right now too and I’m so angry because I quit drinking 2 years ago because it was a problem for me, and now I’ve started again so I’m also upset about that. But I really can’t deal anymore. I cry everyday now.
I need to get out of this house with my daughter. I hate it here.
My husband’s adult son has moved back home full time and quit his college and basically they go out drinking together every night and they BOTH treat me like a SERVANT for them in this home.
They literally ignore me all day except to ask “what’s for breakfast?” “what’s for lunch?” what’s for dinner?” and “we’re out of sweet tea can you get more?”
I cannot remember the last time I’ve had a break long enough to nap and they’ve napped all day long today except to eat.
My daughter is dealing with a chronic illness at this point and they don’t even help me. Per doctors orders, she’s supposed to be on a strict high-electrolyte schedule, and it was time for her pedialyte this morning and I found that those 2 adult men drank all her pedialyte because they were hungover and I had to make the 1 hour round-trip to the grocery store because they wouldn’t get up.
I asked my husband to take my daughter to another doctors appt for me bc I had a work conflict, and he BERATED me and verbally abused me for not managing my time better so I could do it all myself. I literally take her to 2-3 doctors appointments every week since last August between her dizziness and her foot injury and physical therapy AND I work full time and he spends all my money. Maybe he’s taken her to 3 appointments in this whole time.
He had a party at the house last Friday. My daughter was literally crying from pain and dizziness and discomfort so I stayed with her in our bedroom during the party. My husband later verbally abused me for being antisocial and RUDE when his friends were over. Some of his friends brought their wives over and he was upset that I didn’t entertain the wives so the guys could have their own time. So stupid.
And that damn treadmill!!! (The treadmill that doesn’t even work, remember?)
Per doctors orders, my daughter is needing daily high-intensity exercise. I paid for a (used) recumbent bicycle for her so she’s still able to exercise even when she is dizzy – which has been the case everyday since March. I told my husband that he needed to get rid of the treadmill finally so the bicycle could go in that place. Well, he didn’t.
And, he told me today that he’s NOT going to get rid of the treadmill after all because he doesn’t want to deal with it. So now I have exercise equipment in 2 rooms of the house instead of 1.

I found some high school kids that will remove that treadmill for me for $100. I’ll gladly pay it to finally get rid of the darn thing but I am SO ANGRY that my husband doesn’t help me. There are literally 2 ADULT MEN IN THIS HOUSE that refuse to help me at every opportunity. But they consume everything I have. All my money, all my energy, all my groceries, all my daughter’s pedialyte, everything.
Tonight, I made dinner. Enough for 4 people. My daughter was having a rare good day so she was outside playing with friends and I was waiting for her to eat. My husband and his son had TWO helpings of dinner EACH before my daughter came home at dark. There was not enough dinner left for me or her. So we ate cereal and Ritz crackers for dinner.
I’m so angry. I want OUT of this situation.
And I’m so upset that I started drinking again but I can’t take this anymore.
