hi yesac!

> Well, I just was thinking about how we had had some good chats a while back, and I was wondering what happened to you, because I thought that you added a lot to the board, or at least for me!aaaawwww, way sweet! ... you know, i nearly cried when i read your post asking after me ... really touching! ... thanks!

> > and like, i had to read the whole lex thread before i would let myself post
>
> Yeah, I often read whole threads too - mainly because I just don't want to post the same thing that someone else did, and then look like an A-hole!
>... well, me too ... ... the lex thread is more than a year long now ... ... but i was reading because i needed the support about lex during my SEs ... then i have read other entire threads just to get the _thread_ , to be able to post ... and not look like a b-hole ... ... HA!
> > i have been posting at pBab Faith a lot lately when i have had the time, and that has (i just noticed) cut into reading Social .... ....
>
> Oh, well I VERY RARELY go over to Faith - just not into it - I also almost never go to psychological.
>haven't found a hook for me at Psychological ... actually i post to the lex thread as often as anywhere ... but i have been trying my little buddhist thing at Faith ... not so much of the "Believe This!" thing going on there either ... ... Faith has it's interesting twists though ... ... if you were to go and read my posts, you'd find out a LOT about me ... ... not a big thing though ...
> I hope you had a good time on your vacation to the coast (I'm assuming it was a vacation).
"vacation" ... ... a LOT of ...effort... and some fun with our small one, one afternoon at the beach ... but also a massive stressor ... i had to be forced to go and then i had to force myself to not complain ... should NOT spoil the team's fun! .. ... .... but, yes, it was a vacvation ... in Corpus Christi ...
> I want to go on a vacation, but I honestly don't know where to go or what to do, plus I don't have a lot of extra money right now. My friend and I have been talking about going to the SW (new mexico, arizona, etc) renting a car and driving all over to national parks and such. The plan is to go in late september, but I feel so stressed about money lately (mostly due to mental health costs). I don't want to back out though either. Hmmm... what to do?
>yikes! ... ... as you just read, i'm like NO Good there ... especially if you're cash-strapped ... stress on top of more stress ... not me, please ... although, folks will tell us that getting out and breaking our routine is good for us (?)
... ... but we have this girl friend of ours and she travels ALL the time, but never bothers to get it together here and Enjoys leaving it all behind ansd blowing it off until she has to come home .... .... i can't really do that ...

> > How are You??
>
> Up and down. This week I feel pretty good. I've felt a bit high lately almost - like a caffeine high, except it's weird because I haven't been consuming much more caffeine that usual. And I've never been hypomanic or anything like that, not even close, so it seems rather unlikely that that's what it is. Maybe maybe maybe my medication is actually doing something. Who knows?
>would this be time for you to adjust your med(s)?
i have lost track of your regimen: sx, dx, tx, rx?
me:
sx: depressed
dx: depression
tx: lexapro
rx: 10mg a day, for now> Well, I hope to see you back soon! But no pressure - if you are out enjoying your life, then I wouldn't want you to feel like you need to come and spend time on the board unless you want to.
>no pressure felt! ... this feels good to me ...
hoping everyday isn't too soon, is it? ... ...
... ... when i find time, i want to visit here ... and chat with you ... ... we have had good chats ...... ... but SomeTimes, our 4 1/2 year-old wants to do something(s) else ... ... although he tends to be asleep by 9 to 9:30 ... ... last night i was posting here at like 1:30 AM cdt (!) .. and got to work by 8 AM, too ....
... and life has been filling up with other things, so sometimes i may not be here ...
... but if you needed anything, just post to me and i'll get back to you as soon as is comfortable ... ... it would make me feel better if i felt you would give me a shout whenever you felt like it ... please?so, is your vacation/travel companion like a significant-other type, or more like a roommamte type?
cheers,
~ jim
