But whatever it is, I hope you find some peace and resolution to the issue.

I am finding peace as each day goes on..
I'm reconnecting in real life ... where I belong.
Time heals all wounds ...
Just a tiny scar ...

Thank you for your kind words....
Appreciated .....

My world has gone crazy lately, I'm working on picking up the pieces myself. Day by day.

Good luck to you.

Our worlds can go crazy .... and yet we go on...
Things get better....
Soon, look back with satisfaction .... knowing we made it through.
Best wishes to you also....
Each day another piece ... and sooner than we expect...
A new path....new horizon.



peace~

Whatever happened, whether or not she's comfortable sharing it, we're just happy to have her with us.

You've been on a precipice, too, Denninmi. You're a ball of energy, but you're struggling with something, too. Something you haven't yet gotten a handle on.

You're smart enough to be aware of the avenues of help available to you. But a high I.Q. doesn't always guarantee that we'll be smart enough to act when we should.

Whatever happens, if you left here you'd be missed. And even if you had to leave for a while, we hope you remember that, in your own words, "Homecoming can be very good."

Yeah, I was diagnosed as bipolar last week. it's been a real trip. I don't want to make this thread about me, but I've posted extensively on the mental health group if you want the gory details.

Yup, big mess. I was the last guy I thought would go crazy. I'm doing my very best to deal responsibly with it. Already had more dr. Appts in past two weeks than past 4 years.

You didn't go crazy, dear one. You have an illness. I'm thankful that you're getting the help that you need. Please continue to post in the mental health group....I feel like I should visit there.
My brother was bipolar..

You can only help yourself...with help from the MDs..
And you'll get by with a little help from your friends.

I'm really working on it. Which is good, because it's the only thing I can seem to work on right now. Not housework/family stuff. Not anything at work (notice I've posted a lot today on DU). Just can't do it. Spirit is willing, but I literally can't do it. Plus, I just had a monster and 3 diet mt dews just trying to stay awake. Vicious feedback loop there, means I'll be out walking the streets of suburban Detroit at 3:00 this morning.

Thank you...
I've always been here.....yet rarely felt that I could post...
I was slipping away as my life spun out of control....
Had to stop the madness and find myself again....

So yes, here with all again...
Mind clearing...
Good to be home...Here, and in real life as I know it...

peace~

I got some PMs regarding this post....
One of them hit me at the time... and I gave all the details.
Alas....
Maybe I will explain it to anyone else interested....on the board.
It makes sense to me...

I gave the bullet back without request ...
I put it where it belonged ..



I also have a great Lynyrd Skynyrd story... a happy one



peace~
