HEY lil' jimi:
> > > > I hope this will last.....We're all doing SOOOO GREAT....when is the other shoe going to fall???
By "all" I guess I mean you, blkvettes, and myself?? I really hope our "up-beat" posts are and inspiration and NOT a "downer" for those who struggle still.
> > > hadn't thought about "the other shoe falling" .... yet!
> > > should we put the shout out to the long(er) time lex user and see if there's any reason to fear any "poop out" ?My BIGGEST fear....it's just temporary and I'll sink back into the pit when I get "used" to the Lex.

Yes, I am afraid it will not last. Things are going somewhat better now, have no real reason to be down, have a good paying job, getting along w/hubby (no fights in months), health is good....> what do we think you were meant to be doing?.... what kind of a different person? .... i would not doubt your sincerity .... am i a different person too then ?

Different person - I have always had trouble here....I don't deserve to be happy, I SHOULD be miserable, I am not used to feeling this way, and keep expecting to go back.> > So many of us have had such a hard time of it, I feel guilty for being in a good mood.

YES WE SHOULD....I keep telling myself that over and over, but it doesn't want to sink in. Seems the better I feel the worse it gets....feel bad for others and that I still don't DESERVE it.> > JUST HOPE IT IS INFECTIOUS AND I CAN GIVE IT TO ALL OF YOU!!!
