Question Posted Wednesday August 10 2011, 11:31 am
My life is full of complications. I'm female/19/married/alone.
I'm alone most of the time. I don't have any friends my husband is in the military and I moved here where he is stationed with him. Back at home, I was happy mostly when not at home. I'm more than 1000 miles away from "home" being even here my parents fighting and problems effect me. I tend to turn to alcohol. Sometimes I wish I had some other type of substance. My life here with my husband has been the best thing in my life but I still feel unhappy at times. I accuse him of checking other girls out, I have outbreaks, he's not the sweetest guy in the world but when he is it feels reassuring and nice. But at times he is mean and I feel like he doesn't appreciate me. Sometimes I feel like I'm doing this marriage by myself. I have no friends I don't trust anyone. Suicicide has came to my life many times. I have low self-esteem, I feel overweight, ugly, I compare myself with other girls 24/7. And there's one more thing but I don't feel comfortable sharing that. I don't feel comfortable sharing most these things but I don't know where else to turn to.

I felt the same why when my Family and I moved four hours away from our home-town. We didn't know anyone, we didn't have any friends, nothing. We made it okay though, because we had the support of one another to help us through it. If you don't have the support from your Husband, what do you have? Your Husband is supposed to be there for you, your best friend, your soul mate. Have you tried talking to him about the issues you're facing? If not, do it. He is your Husband, he should be the most understanding person for you. Talk to him, tell him everything, explain to him about how you've been thinking about suicide, how un-happy you are, etc. Have a good talk about everything,then go from there.
About you not feeling pretty and comparing yourself to other girls 24/4, you're not the only one. I can assure you, even these "perfect" girls have flaws. Everyone is beautiful in their own way. You should have to have perfect skin or be a size 0 to look beautiful. EVERYONE is beautiful, and it takes someone even more beautiful to realize just how gorgeous that one special person is.
