Yes, our dear Noa who (I forget why) hasn't posted for awhile presented us with a lot of amygdala information. I told her she should start a band called "Noa and the Flaming Amygdala's". She said I could sing back up--or even lead.

>hi 'bina,
i (like many others, i'm sure) share your concerns .... .... it seems obvious that they have more than just a rational basis ... ...
.... .... in the past when this situation occurred with concern for another poster's safety, i sent to Dr. Bob's e-mail address all of the pertinent e-mails i had received and asked him if there was any way i could help ....
.... .... of course we have to recognize that there are serious limitations to any options ....
.... informing Dr. Bob was the last refuge for hope that anyone would be able to help ....
.... and we may safely presume he will have been kept up on these issues .... .... this is all the more likely, given Dinah's closeness to Gracie and her sometimes capacity as Dr. Bob's substitute ........ .... be all of that as it may, i would ask you to convey any information you (or anyone) may have directly to Dr. Bob at dr-bob@uchicago.edu ....
.... we have to understand that he may well not be able to do anything either ... ... but this is the most we can do here at pBabble unless there is more information that could help Dr. Bob and that he might be able to provide to law enforcement .... ....
.... .... it is my considered opinion that that is the penultimate thing we may do ...
.... .... of course, for the faithful, the ultimate thing will be to pray ... ... no time like the present ..... .... corresponding directly with Dr. Bob also limits exposing our posters to the anxieties of these issues ... many are not well for the possibility of tragedy ... ...
.... .... i hope and pray there can be something we can do ....
.... .... and it is not trivial that we must care for our own well being and health as well ...
TAKE CARE!

>>>> re: .... .... corresponding directly with Dr. Bob also limits exposing our posters to the anxieties of these issues ... many are not well for the possibility of tragedy ... ...
i feel like you are inferring that i am exposing our posters to anxiety by mentioning my concern for gracie's well being. however, i will take no offense, since i choose to assume that none was intended. i am well aware of the inadequacies of this medium, where the inferances and tones of exchanges can be so slippery and obscure at times.in the past, i've made a point of not reading posts that may have proven to be triggering for me (detailed suicide plans, etc.) and i trust that our posters are able to take responsibility for themselves and excercise the same discretion in this case.
i sincerely apologize that i didn't have a more pleasant topic for the evening, but i wasn't led to believe that was my brief for this board. we have emotional and mental problems. it hurts. it's not pretty. this is where we talk about it with people who understand.
i don't feel that i'm exactly fanning the flames of panic, here, though. to that end i purposely only mention gracie anymore after someone else does first.
incidentally, i have written to dr. bob (and dinah) twice each. dinah doesn't seem to know anymore than i do. dr. bob's advice was to post my concerns here, which i have done. i confess that i had hoped for a more agressive response from him, one along the lines of a welfare check.
the second time i wrote to him he advised me to contact her ISP. i have since done so. i'm sure they'll hop right into action because some crazy girl on a message board said that somebody else said in a post that....yadda, yadda.
riiiight. see, that's why i was thinking it might carry some more weight if it had come from dr. bob. oh well. i've been so disappointed, in fact, that i've mostly stayed away as of late to try and process through my feelings about it privately.
let's just pray that gracie either got herself out of that house or at least reiterated her request for police backup in an alternate venue, one that was immediately available, less anonymous, and more adequately appointed toward a course of action, and that she is well and safe tonight.
respectfully,
sabina

Hi Sabina,
I don't think anyone meant for you to apologize for anything. I am grateful you've gone to the lengths you have.I guess that's as far as dr. Bob can take it-- like during a perceived suicide threat?
I am praying with you.

i admire that you have been so thorough on gracie's behalf and i am grateful that you have already exhausted all of my suggestions ... ... i am grateful that you have been so conscientious and deliberate .... .... you are also very articulate, which i envy ... ... i'm not so articulate ... ...
... ... i apologize for any hurt i have caused you
... ... i intended no criticism of you whatsoever
... ... i can now easily see how this interpretation would have been drawn ...
... ... i apologize for not considering the inference you could, not unreasonably, draw from my words
... ... i am truly sorry for this and i ask for your forgiveness
... ...
... ... i was speaking from my experience of a poster who created considerable havoc for a lot of us ... ... the circumstances were completely different from gracie's ... ...this poster got banned ...
her supporters established e-mail connection with her ...
she subsequently e-mailed her suicide announcement to her supporters ...
i panicked and posted my panic on the meds board, panicking others, who out of the best of intentions wanted to help someone in danger ...
i'd only been here a week or two and in my hysteria violated posting policies left and right ...the poster survives, recovers, returns from her ban ...
only to post and e-mail her suicide announcements again ...
the 3rd time ... people wise up; sympathies turn into pity, but for some, into angry hostility ...by now the announcements come with vengeful hatred, singling out all authorities and especially her supporters ... ...
there were subsequent episodes, but by this time all of her other supporter had left psycho-babble or left soon afterward ...
except for mewhen i wrote about limiting the trauma to our posters, i was recounting my experience and my lessons from it ... ... well, for myself ... ... those feelings are just there now ... ... i would not be able to try to accuse you being insensitive or thoughtless
... ... to me, i was sharing my considerations on avoiding suffering because i had indiscretely increased suffering here and i became close to people who deeply hurt by this poster ... ...i have read your posts of your concern for gracie's safety ... ... ... they have always been kind, deliberate and gentle, while being urgent and pleading .... ... i think, if i may be so bold, they were in excellent taste and way within the stress levels our fragile posters manage to take on the boards ... ... i admire the skill and effort exercised to offer such conscientious expression of your own panic about your friend gracie ... ...
i am probably in a better position than most to appreciate the stress you have been enduring ... ... to feel the urgent need to take action to protect or save a friend, BUT not be able to take action AND not have ANY control over the dilemma ... ... and i understand too well how these feelings are exaserbated by the impression that the authorities are not taking the actions we expect must be taken ... ... and by the impression that everyone else is indulging in bystander syndrome ...
i offer you my narrative not as an excuse ... ... i seek no excuse here ... i should have considered the consequences to your feelings ... i didn't ... ... i was wrong ... ... i offer my narative only as an explanation, so that you might see i was not being beligerent, rather than negligent ... ... distracted by my own feelings, i mentioned something i wished someone had mentioned to me ...
... ... i wrote the words that hurt you, to me, more than i wrote them to you ...i am sorry ... ... ... i hope you will forgive me
regretfully,
~ jim

jim, buddy, don't sweat it! just as i chose to assume, there was *much* more to your story and history than i knew, and i am quite happy that i chose not to perceive your reply in a negative fashion. don't think another thing about it. i wasn't irritated with you last night and i'm certainly not irritated with you this morning. i've got more to worry about in my life than to go looking for reasons to get my feelings hurt here, where everyone has been nothing but kind to me and there's only ever been a slight miscommunication that was easily cleared up whenever the situation appeared to be otherwise. thanks for telling me your story, in any case. it sounds like it was a very bad situation, indeed. i can see how it would leave quite an impression on anyone.
i do continue to pray for gracie as i'm sure do we all. as i have done everything i can think to do physically, i will give this situation up to god and keep quiet about here it out of respect for others' feelings. i do appreciate your input on this matter. hopefully, soon we will receive some positive word, either from graice or someone in contact with her.

> binait is gracious of you to be so decent about this and i apprecaite it very much .... .... your spirit is strong to handle the challenges of your own situation and your campaign for grace, and then deal with my ineptitude .... ...
... i think being irritable is reasonable under the circumstances ...
... i also think that i overreact due to my hypersensitivity to these issues and that nothing you have done has come close to spreading panic or hysteria ... ... and it is not comparable to my enabling that poster to spread psychic mayhem by violating posting policies here ...
... ... given you were advised to post inquiries about grace ... ... and the absence of a threat of self-destruction, .... i think the situation may be qualitatively different .... different enough to warrant a less than totally discreet appraoch ...... .. ... for instance ...
... ... if someone's claiming a puppy's about to suffer, but there's nothing anyone can do about it ... then broadcasting this would mostly serve to increase the number of people who would not be able to do anything about it, and little else ...
... ... but if someone has lost a puppy and wants help ... then broadcasting that would multiply the number folks on the look out ... which is nearly harmless ... enough so that any incidental hysteria is small enough that it is worth that risk ...... ... your pleas of concern for gracie have been easily within this second category ... (although i apologize for casting grace as analogous with the puppy ... sorry, gracie) ...
although i'd suspect you've got everyone already beating the bushes ...
i can (Now!) see posting for grace as not having a significant negative impact on the boards' psychic ambiance ...
when compared to the beneficial catharsis from posting (venting) your (our) concerns ... i feel it may be that the detrimental effects of such posts are negligible under these circumstances ... at least until somebody else comes up with other concerns anyway ... ...i appreciate your good spirit and thank you for your understanding ... ...
thanks,
your buddy,

Hi jimi,
It's good to hear from you.I'm not doing so great at the moment, my cat was up sick all night so both of us are tired. I'm trying to assess if I have to consider it an emergency or I can wait until tomorrow to go to the vet. She's not getting any worse, so that's good.
I'm not sure where all that came about who is making my decisions --it's kind of making me feel bad. I did say that I appreciated the directive (not to call, eg), because most people feel the need to qualify their suggestions with that it is only their opinion, etc. etc. I grew up with an emotionally absent vapor of a mother so I appreciate clear advice sometimes. Of course I'm a big girl and I can decide whether or not I want to take it.
I'm also having a delightful round of obsessive compulsive disorder. I get songs stuck in my head and they beat me to death. Ok, here's your joke-- I call them O.C.D's. But truly it can get a little hellish. I'm wondering if it's since I started the Lexapro, which wouldn't make sense, but you never know. I'm not going to give up on it yet though, because other than that I am tolerating it better than anything else I've tried recently.
I'm glad your allergies are better--mine have been acting up too. I get allergy shots, which ended up helping--after 3 years! But you know what...it was worth it. I was born with a (I was born...in a crossfire hurricane...see, here I go!) Ok, I'll try again: I was born with a Kleenex in my hand, nose running and eyes watering.
Be well jimi.

-... ... i can cheer anyway, because i know you will just tell me when to stop ... ... of course!-
I wasn't sure, because you made that comment about it being easier to support me now that (you know I can make my own decisions?). I didn't expect I would have to qualify that so much, it made me feel kind of stoopid.
Anyway, about the songs: yes, the OCD can make me dislike them due to the fact they are making me psycho. Sorry to be obtuse,
O. "CD's" (compact discs...)It's unfortunate because sometimes they are songs that I love.
I sort of snuck in the lexapro. Even my doctor doesn't know I'm back on it--I can't get in to see him, he's so busy. I'm just taking about 5mgs. and it's been about a week. I'm glad to hear it can amp up the 'music' at first...so maybe that means it will go away.
Kitty's name is Alice but we call her so many things. She's all white and I like to call her Moondoggie, or just Moon, mostly. Sometimes I call her Cadbury, Cooper or Lucretia May. She's deaf so she doesn't mind. I thought about naming her Mandu (Kat Mandu....I'm such a shameless punner--isn't that supposed to be the lowest form of humor?) Anyway, she's very beautiful, but high strung-- I guess those two often go together! But she really did have a bad night, it wasn't just a ploy for attention.
But shhhh---I theeenk she's better....
Hey jimi...should I call him?? ; )
