In reply to my story (long long long) - kara lynne, posted by octopusprime on September 17, 2003, at 0:47:19
OH MAN, I had to post after seeing this octopusprime. I read your whole post and I appreciate you sharing what you did. I know this post was intended for kara lynne, but not only have you touched her and most likely helped her, you have helped me.
You, my friend, just gave someone (me) a lot of HOPE and I thank you for that.
I just wanted to tell you that I think you are a very strong person. I am so happy to see you be getting on with your life, doing things you need to do, working, and even walking to work! I have been isolating myself for a few months now. I recently moved back to my hometown after what I thought was a failure~which in reality and a lot of self-talk and support, was not. (I'm really tring not to make this post about me)
Anyway, you are where I want to be emotionally. I mean, you are going to work, you are taking up interests, and you are doing. I am talking the talk but not walking the walk.
Thank you for spreading hope around here:-)
**Cheers to the Other Side* :-) :-)
>> kara lynne, i don't know why i wrote all this, maybe you'll see that me being strong is a bit of a front. i'm going to fake it until i make it. i have no interest in being depressed now. i've been there and done that. i would rather find ways to move on, and i'm going to try and summon every ounce of courage to make it in my adopted town.

> i know this is a place for people that are depressed, but i wonder if anybody out there ever makes it through to the other side. i want to be on the other side so very badly. i'm tired of feeling bad.
