This is discussed is session 4, and while I know I should accept the fact life is not fair I am finding it really hard, every day/week/month that passed lately there is another trial or tribulation that makes me loss faith completely.

I went to my child's school nativity play last night, my son has been having trouble with bullying and it has caused me a great deal of stress and worry, I go to the play to discover who is playing the lead role?? Yes you guessed it the bully, and there way his parents sitting in the front row acting like the sun shawn out of there child's behind. It wasn't the fact I wanted my son to do it, but there are 500 other kids at the school why did it have to be him?

Work has also been a cause of stress for me for the fact nothing ever goes by the book, I was taught up to believe in life you work hard and you will get the rewards, it simply does not work like that, you work hard your taken advantage of and the people who do nothing are the people that progress.

As I'm sure you can hear by my tone I am very bitter about the way my life is working out and the general unfairness in the world, as a child I was also picked on because I was brought up to have manners and show respect to others and what real good has it done me? I've ended up with anxiety and depression most of my adult life, and the kids that have done the bullying in my childhood have progressed on to having the nice job, the nice home, regular vacations etc, they are living the dream, while me on the other hand have a dead end job, have never had a vacation and can barely afford to feed my family let alone do anything else in life.

I would really appreciate some advice on this, I've only really let it get to me in this past month, prior to that I suppose I had been kidding myself about life.

Iknow how you feel. It's not fair.

The program wants us to realize this. We don't have to like though. We just need to keep that in mind when bad, or unfair things happen.

Keep doing the program, you'll come to terms with this in a while.

Do you journal? Journal and get those feelings out out. They need to go so that you get rid of that anxiety and depression.

Take care. Here's some e-hugs for you! :)

I've been through the program half a dozen times at this stage, I think it must be the type of thing that you have to keep referring back to, I'm going to have a listen to session 3 today on positive self talk, hopefully that will snap me out of it
