Sandy, I'm so sorry you have had to keep going through all of this. I am not sure why Dr. Bob notified the authorities this time, but he is the professional here, and he must have seen something in your posts that concerned him. He is a good guy to have on your side, but I don't have to tell you that:~)
I am glad that you are doing better, sweetie, and I hope we can figure out some way for this board to work for you. I think when everyone sees you doing things like going away by yourself and then actually coming back again, we will be less anxious about it.
Those of us who have been to the edge know only too well what a fragile line there can be between choosing to live and choosing to die. For some of us, the choice of life was made for us by someone else several times before we finally made that choice for ourselves. And for others of us, we faced those choices alone (perhaps several times) and are not really sure what brought us back. Please, understand if we tend to draw from our own experiences as we watch your story unfold.
You are right, that it is different over the internet than it would be if we were face to face, as we are not able to look into each other's eyes and find the reassurance we are looking for. But I hope you will stay with us and continue to share. You have a wonderful sense of humor, and I would love to hear more about your children and your day-to-day life {I know absolutely NOTHING about Nova Scotia}.
I know you mentioned once where you lived before, but I can't remember, was it Seattle?? California?? I live in the Pacific NW, myself. I got to see three woodpeckers, two white butterflies (a couple, i assume:) and a gray squirrel in my back yard all at the same time this morning . . . my yard was alive! And my cat, Rosie, was watching out the back window - it was my warm-fuzzy for the day:~)
I hope we can find a way for you to stay here, Sandy . . .
((((HUGS)))) ((((smiles)))) ((((friends)))) ((((warm fuzzies))))
