Hard Day

Boy today has been hard. I can't begin to tell you how much I miss my family and friends. We have a great ward, but I haven't really made friends, and have no callings yet, and just feel so isolated. It was a cloudy stormy day which didn't help, and the house is a mess. This unpacking thing is kicking my butt. I get so frustrated with it, and then there is still so much to do that it overwhelms me. On top of this, Makae's honeymoon period is over and she is back to the roller coaster ride. Things were going so well for a while. She has had one friend banned from hanging out with her because she isn't safe, has told another she wants to commit suicide, who told her mom, who told the relief society president, who called me. Practically all of her friends know something is wrong, and no one comes over anymore, or calls. As hard as we try to tell her that this behavior drives people away, she just can't seem to stop it. I don't know what to do. I don't want her to be a chronic resident of mental hospitals, but she can't seem to handle normal life. I'm trying to keep a good attitude, but some days it gets really really hard!

this makes me sad. I understand. I too have felt impulses of wanted to bring people along with me. But at the end of the day, I have learned that not many people understand, and I don't either.
Difficult challenge. I hope it settles down a bit.
You are missed---and loved
I hope that Heavenly Father sends you a kind friend to help you bear these burdens. I know we have husbands and their great, but everyone really needs a friend.
I hope Makae can find hope and settle in soon. I hope she can find a friend also that will understand and love her through the hard times she has. Moving seems to affect everyone differently.
Our prayers are with you and your family!! Love you!!
All I can say is I love you and I understand
