> i was just kinda curious.
are you feeling better ..you last sounded like the end of the world was near and if I remember there was some that answered your thread ..and might i ask what happened to your diary ..I think you got to about day 9 or 10 cant remember ..
You sound to be very cognitive of what is going on with you ..did you go to the hospital ?? have you found some outside the board help from your outburst plea of help..the other day ..I find that there are some gaps sometimes that have to be filled in before we can get support on our threads ..So tell us to understand whats going on so maybe we can help..*NO BODY* is ignoring you..maybe just watching and listening..So What is going on ?????????????Have you tried getting some time alone from the family ..Girls night out or a weekend away???

Hey babe, and remember, I'm always here to help you... Going off the meds completely probably wasn't a very smart move. I don't know... I tried that before myself, got off all the prescription meds, stopped drinking, smoking, cut all the alternative drugs out of my life, for 3 months went sober as can be, and damn... that was probably the lowest point of my mental health so far during this lifetime. I found out, in my case anyways, sometimes you can't just wish yourself better. Maybe getting off the meds altogether is what has made the past few days so rough on you.Remember though, I'm always going to be here to help you. You should check your email address as much as you check this message board because whenever you're on my mind I shoot you an email. You're simply not alone in this so don't think that you are.
I left my phone number for you in the last email that I sent you (not too sure if you've seen that yet) and no matter where you are, you can call me. I'll just pick up, get the number where you're currently at from you, and call you back ASAP. Don't worry, I've got special LD deals on my line and I'm living fairly comfortable too at the moment. You can call any time of the day babe, whenever you feel that you need somebody to talk to. If it's late at night though, I'll probably be too sedated to answer the phone so just leave a message and I'll call you back as soon as possible.
Lilsis, medication is sometimes the best way to go. Even though I STILL hate taking drugs every day just to feel normal, and I probably always will hate it, it's just that you have to change the way that you're looking at your situation. If you were a cancer patient, would you not accept Kemo? Hell, I know if you were a cancer patient you'd probably be smoking up all the legal weed your doctor would prescribe you. A mental illness should be looked at the same as that.
Anyways, whenever you need somebody to talk to, or just to listen, I'm here, ok? No more thinking that you're going through this alone. I won't let you go through this alone unless you decide that you don't want me around anymore. So when you're at your parents place and have access to the computer, check your emails as much as you check this board. And if you think it would help you, use that number that I sent you.
As long as you stay strong, like I know you are, and be reasonable about this situation (for example, don't refuse drugs that could possibly help you... whatever happened to agreeing to try it out for at least one month???) we'll get through this.

Cindy, read your mail... I've got a good story for you for what happens when you decide that you don't need meds. I KNOW you're a strong girl, that's why I've devoting a lot of attention to you. You're strong enough to get through this. But maybe you're not strong enough to do it without the meds. You said that you had most of these symptoms from before your Grampy died, and that some of them you've had for as long as you can remember, meaning that even if you pretend they're not there, they're still going to be there.Anyways, I don't like posting what I have to say to you for everybody else to read. Some things should just be personal, between 2 people. So, read your mail, K? Yes, I do use MSN Messenger, I've given you my address, just type it in.
I'll still be up for a little bit, but I am getting tired, the meds make it impossible to stay up as long as I used to be able to.
Anyways, just posting here just in case you decide to read this board first.
This is the end of the thread.
