well, i wanted to select sorry for keli and thank you to alison on the choose your emotion drop down. unfortuately it won't let me.

keli: i did not mean that at all the way you took it. what i meant by it is to what degree does the illness have to effect you in order to warrant your receiving disability benifits. i was as alison suggested, and as i often do trying to put a little levity into the situation. i always assumed that this is one of those things that you can say if you are talking about yourself, or others with the same illness, while "outsiders" so to speak, can not. i often refer to myself as "loopy" "issuey" or "spazy" depending on what my cycle is doing that day. depressed is issuey, just plain not right is loopy, and manic is spazy. so i am sorry to have offended you, but please understand i di not me it in a derogitory way.

alison: thank you for getting it. i meant it exactly as you said, and i appriciate your pointing out that it my not have been intended to be cruel. so than-x .
