Hey, Sandy . . . good to hear your ["e"] voice again. I understand your not feeling like writing right now; you're probably pretty exhausted - in every way, huh?
I just got off work, sweetie, and I'm going to go fix myself something to nibble on, okay? Write, if you feel like it, and I will write again a little later.
Back in a bit:~)

jlynne,
I just wanted to tell you that I have appreciated your concern.
Please don't bother posting to me anymore because I truly won't see it.
I've discovered that my postings have not been appropriate for these boards, and that I've caused problems for people.
So along with everything else that has happened the last few days....I've also lost all credibility with the police department and members' tolerance levels on these boards.
I want you to know that you are a GREAT lady. You did everything that you could have done. Your clients are very blessed to have you on their side. Don't second-guess yourself. It's not a bad thing to reach out to someone. I am grateful. It would have been nice to meet you one day. But I'm at peace with my choice tonight. April Fool's was made for just such a fool as me, eh? *smile*
Take wonderful care of yourself, hun. I loved the (((soft strokes))). I didn't get too many of them during my marriage, so every little bit of human touch is so very much treasured. Thank you for thinking of me.
You will be fine, "jlynne". Please don't give me another thought, and continue living your life as the beautiful soul that you are.
Thank you again, sweetie.
Hugs and God bless you,
Sandy

Sandy if you are referring to my post on the confusion of why some posts of a very serious nature are on here and not on the psychology section in Babble please know that doesnt mean I dont care about you and am less than genuine..If OTHERS have issues with your thread...why not start one in psychology with a trigger warning...and go there...This is NOT the only thread I find odd in here...I see many and thus do not post or start posts myself in here cause its an odd vague area.....I care about you and hope you keep posting and get some help..I am mostly on the psych board in here.

>Hey, sweetie . . . that's why we created THIS thread - - remember?? No more talk about being inappropriate, see? These boards are for mutual support, and if someone doesn't like our subject matter, they don't have to read it. I have read other posts on this board that I can't really relate to, but I just don't go there when that's the case.
Supporting each other is what this place is all about - we don't all relate to everyone else here, but the ones who do relate to a certain person are the ones who respond to that person.
I'm staying here for you, Sandy. I would like you to stay, too. It's not like we are intruding on someone else's space - this our thread, and everyone can see that. And, now, we have a new friend - a great friend, Fallen4T.
Sorry I ran on, but I feel very strongly about what I said.

jlynne,
This is ridiculous.
Anyways, I've decided that I won't do anything afterall. A steak knife and me visited in the bathroom for over an hour, and a few cuts later, I walked away from it. I didn't really want to die sitting on my toilet.
I am, however, going to leave this board. I really had no intention of ever coming back because I was going to go to a park tonight. Heck, I've even got my longjohns and heavy socks ready in the washroom to get dressed. But, I'm going to go to bed instead.
I'm still not coming back to the board, though. I'm not well....and I don't want to hamper anyone's recovery. I appreciate the thread, but I'm not good for you guys.
And I really, really can't handle anyone's criticisms or belittlements right now.
Thanks for the friendship, both you and Fallen!
Hugs,
Sandy

I hope you will reconsider. . . You're not hampering my recovery - I've been around too long for that.
I'm glad you changed your mind about the knife today.
Are you off your meds now?
I am still here; not going anywhere.

Sandy, I don't know what you read that hurt your feelings so badly, but please believe me, it is ok for you to discuss your feelings here. There have been a lot of posts on the board lately that some people might have a hard time with (including some of mine, if you have been reading them). Life is not a proverbial "bowl of cherries" - and this board wouldn't be of much use if we just posted the "nice" stuff, now, would it?
Hang in there, kid . . . if we get kicked off, we go together - okay? (But, as long as we are civil, that's not going to happen, sweetie.)
I will be going to bed soon (mmmm . . . jersey sheets - have you been following the saga of the sheets?)
Remember, I am on Pacific time, so I won't be up as early as you in the morning.
((((HUGS)))) ((((((((Strokes)))))))) ((((lullabies))))

jlynne,
You make me smile. *big goofy smile* SEE?
I feel like such a doofus, though.....because here I am again, after just saying that I wasn't coming back to this board. But I have nowhere else to go. What's that say about me?
It is now 3:20am, and I still can't get to sleep. I am getting so tired of not being able to sleep. It's a darn good thing that I'm not still attending classes because I don't think I've gotten 2 winks since I left las t week. How long can a person go without sleep before they go psycho? Oops....already there!!! Lol!
I really feel like I'm going to lose it.
I am losing it, I am losing it, I am losing it, I am losing it, I am losing it, I am losing it, I am losing it, I am losing it, I am losing it, I am losing it, I am losing it, I am losing it, I am losing it, I am losing it, I am losing it, I am losing it, I am losing it.
Well, at least I ate something yesterday. I had a whole slice of chicken lasagna. Of course, it came out as quickly as it went in.....I don't think my bowels know what to do with food anymore.
Oh, and yes....I'm off the meds. And I don't have a pdoc or therapist. I just have a regular doc that I've been seeing for the past year, when I began to have anxiety issues in January 2003. We've run of gamut of meds, and we don't really know what we're doing. Nothing really works, though.....as you can tell.
My wrist itches from those cuts tonight. The ones on my arm don't itch, though. Good. I don't like knives. I felt like I was sawing into a piece of steak or something!
Oh gosh, I'm losing it. You know, I just want to disappear. Just close my eyes and disappear. I was having one of the BEST weeks I had had in YEARS and YEARS. Both my kids went to Grammie and Grampie's for March Break, and this was the first time that I had a few days to myself since I was 18 years old!!!!!!!!!!!! 20 years since I've had some alone time. It was so good to just have some time for ME. And then....da da da doom....Friday comes along with finding out that I can't continue with my education....ever. So I went from HIGH to LOW.....and the LOW just keeps getting worse with each passing day. Jeepers. What, did I break a mirror or something? Lol! How can so many bad things happen at once? Ugh.
I know I can't get to sleep.....but I want off of this computer.
I'm exhausted from pretending to my kids that I'm still me. They want to talk, they want to be around me, they want to watch tv. I'm starting to snap at them simply because I only want to sit in the chair and stare at the wall.....but I can't do that....I have to pretend that life is normal. I am losing it.
And on that note (lol!), I'm going to hit the pillows again. I'm not tired, though. Maybe I'll play with my toes! Hee hee!
Hugs,
Sandy

Good morning, Sandy. Glad you came back:~)
I need to get ready for work, but I wanted to give you a phone number for a helpline that I found in the internet yellow pages for your province. Might be worth dialing? The listing is under Social Services, or something similar and it is just listed as "Helpline".
The number is: 902-422-2048. They might be all wet, but they could very well have some good direction for you to try.
[If it turns out to be a dud, you can blame me]
You could try writing out what you would say to them, so that it won't sound strange when you say it out loud. You wouldn't have to spill your guts right off the bat, you know; you could kind of feel them out for what kind of help they can connect you with.
You can do this, Sandy. Pretend you are calling me:~)
You can even tell them that "a friend" suggested that you call them.
Or, maybe you already know a better place to call? Maybe your doctor? Or, maybe not - just a suggestion, love.
You're not alone, Sandy. And it is good that you came back.
Baby steps, baby - okay? One at a time:~)
((((HUGS)))) ((((Soft strokes))))
...jlynne
P.S. Do you think you could drink some chocolate milk? or Carnation Instant Breakfast?

Sandy,
Have you called the number of the church I gave you? I think they are only about 6 miles from you. If you asked me to, I would call them for you myself on your behalf. I know they would either come to visit you, or give you a ride to church.
