You Guys Are Wayyyy Too Quiet--LOL!

What's happenin' out there in YOUR world? Everything okay? It got so quiet around here the last few days I decided it's time for a role call! Sooooo, with that in mind, tell us if you will, what state you live in (IF you are comfortable doing so!), and how you've been doing these past few days! If you are not doing so well, we're here to listen and support as always. On the other hand, if things are reasonably stable, and/or life is busy and you're doing well, we'd like to hear about that too if you want to share! So, any takers?


I'll go first. Lori from Maine. I've had a kinda blue 2 days but today is back to normal--whatever normal is--lol! My mom has asked me to go on a brief 4 day trip with her to New Jersey to see her brother whom she hasn't seen in several years and in her eyes "you never can tell when time will run out." Anyway, it's not happenin yet so IF and when it does, I'll alert you all of my few day absence. This would be the first time since my beloved grandmother died (I was 9 yrs. old) that I've been able to go to the cemetary and see her grave. Now THAT would be sad but it would mean the world to me! She and I were very close and I have a gut feeling, if she had lived longer, the abuse I suffered would have been stopped! Other than that, day is overcast and cloudy but I'm smiling today. How bout you? Hugs, Lori

I am here. At a point where I don't know what I need or want to even begin to feel better. Am really really tired and have NO ambition to do anything. Only a few more days til my kids start school. Am beginning to really worry how I am going to deal with being alone all day. Not much else to report. Sandra.

Hi,,,still 'around' and I do come here periodically to lurk and read. Thought I was doing not too badly but I feel it slipping through my fingers again no matter how tightly I clench my fists. Still SI'ing and wanting to more and more. I did find a new T and I am so grateful for her. She geniunely seems to care,,,though it does make me uncomfortable her being like that as I am wondering 'why' do you apparently give a damn about what happens to me sort of thing. I told her how I was thinking for sometime about drowning myself while on vacation. And we discussed how upset I was when they pulled two bodies from the lake while I was up there. Made me feel such shame.

I don't really know what else to say, just wish I could wake up and feel like I should be here instead of not,,,you know?

Hoping everyone else is doing the best they are able to right now. Thank You.

Glad to hear you made that call! I hope he's called you back by now and that you found it helpful. Also, a good sign is that you are still able to maintain some of your sense of humor! You commented that "it might be that time of the year when everything

I know this is a couple of days late but here goes nothing.....Robin from Ohio. I am torn between being really angry and depressed. Crying one minute and then exploding the next. I can't seem to get a handle on the angry thing and it explodes at the wrong thing. I do journal and write down what angers me and what triggered it but there doesn't seem to be any common thing, just me being a bad person or that is how I see it but I am always way too hard on myself. I am always saying if anything is done wrong it was probably me. Will this ever go away. When will I stop blaming myself for everything that happens and apoligizing for it. Do I really think I have that much influence on others, that I am responsible for everything? But I always say I am sorry and I didn't have anything to do with it. Sorry I am not doing well today as you can see. ......I guess that kind of tells you how I am doing.......Robin
