Painful Stories

  • Update...

    Sunday, March 9, 2008 | A Painful story

    Have been putting off writing a journal because so much yucky stuff has happened lately. Was in hospital from Wednesday evening until Friday because I overdosed again. Normally only have to stay in one night but had to stay in longer because they wanted to keep an eye on liver function or something because I left it so long before getting help. Obviously it was pretty horrific. Had the antidote. ...

  • Dear Prudence, Greet the Brand New Day

    Sunday, March 9, 2008 | A Painful story

    On Monday my pdoc dropped my Effexor by half, from 150 to 75.
    For those of you who have known me all this time I have been on DS, well, you know a different Me than I Have Been my entire Bipolar life.  I had a real skid-out blow-up manic episode in the very beginning, and have been of course labeled BPI because of it.  Now, since that time (March 2001, in fact, March 26 2001) my beh...

  • Loss of a friend... :(

    Saturday, June 21, 2008

    Hello all..... I really need your support and prayers tonight. It is Friday night at 11pm.
    My little pet, Molly passed away this afternoon, and I am broken-hearted. I am crying as I write this, so I hope that it's readable.
    I just can't believe she's gone. She was just nipping at my fingers and eating treats yesterday.

  • NoT SuRE ANYmoRE....

    Friday, October 3, 2008 | A Painful story

    I've gotten many messages from a girl who I thought was my friend, saying that she was willing to be there for me if I ever needed someone to talk to. Once, just once, I took her up on her offer. Then tonight she sends me a message saying that I contact her to much (huh? once?) and that I need to back off. She messaged me the other night because she needed someone to talk to and I was there f...

  • OH MY ACHING GUT!

    Wednesday, October 29, 2008 | A Painful story

    Mentally, I'm still feeling alright. Physically though, my gut's a mess from overindulging yesterday.
    My husband took me, my daughter & my parents out in celebration of my birthday to the Chinese buffet I had requested. I ALWAYS overdo it there, and since I wasn't able to purge it all immediately afterwards, I am suffering the consequences today. TRYING not...

  • Shadow on the wall/ Breaking thru

    Thursday, April 30, 2009 | A Painful story

    Is that my shadow on the wall?
    Or is that really me at all.
    I struggle so to see the truth---
    In bygone days and loss of youth.
    I write with ink upon the page,
    And see such sadness and such rage.
    I don't know what to tackle here---
    To stand up tall
    Or disappear.
    Is that me, still insecure,
    Wondering what I can endure?
    Is there hope for what is yet to be?
    Will I ever be content with me.
    I' m not a numb...
