In reply to decisions to take, posted by Doo on May 18, 2001, at 23:55:17
> Hello out there,

> just want to tell you how hard it is for me to take decisions... I have to decide where I'm gonna be living for the next year. I feal so lost, I don't know what to do, I know noone can tell me what to do, but I'm so lost, I have trouble finding what are MY needs, and what are the expectations of others. I'm scared I'll deceive some poeple too. All this takes a huge proportion, my feelings become violent and I become suicidal. Other ones like me out there?

> Doo, having a hard time.^^^^^^^^^
Dear Doo:If you feel you are incapable of making decisions for yourself at this time, then have someone else make them for you, it's as simple as that.
Do you have family? If so, go to them and seek their help and advice. You can't go wrong with family.
If you have no family, then go to Social Services in your area and have them help you. That's what they are there for, and they are professionals at what they do. They will help you.
You do not want to resort to acts of violence against others or yourself no matter what the circumstances are, or how badly you feel. Those methods are not just counter-productive, but non-productive, and you'll gain nothing by doing either. If, however, you feel you cannot help yourself from doing something terrible, go to the local ER of any hospital and talk to someone, no matter what time of day. Hospital personnel will contact or put you in touch with people at Social Services.
If you are sincere in your efforts, you need not be scared nor worried about deceiving anyone.
As far as "Other ones like me out there?", we're all like you, in one way or another. You are not alone.
You will "find" yourself. Just give yourself a chance.
God-speed to you, Doo
