    Sorry it took me so long to write back. I have been very depressed and keeping to myself. Hope you are doing good.

    Thanks for the hug; I needed that. And I'm glad to hear that you're doing as well as you are, physically & mentally. I am a bit "disabled" in those areas, but I am able to work a part-part time job. Take care of yourself, and again, your aspirations toward motherhood are over 50% of what it takes to be the mother you want to be! Love, Alexis

    I'm sorry to hear you had a rough week. I've had better myself. I don't think we'll ever really understand why sometimes its the good things in our lives that we are afraid of and try to dodge, or why we so easily (like myself) go straight to the things the bring us to our lowest point and drag us down. Its so twisted! But regardless don't let these phases or hard times let you doubt yourself on how you are going to set a good example for your daughter. The way i see it is she will see you go through these hard times and will pick up on how you fight back and no matter who you think has the upper hand between you and the prob she'll see that you would always overcome it and realize that the bad times are only temporary. I don't know you but I am convinced you are a good and strong-willed mother. Hope you have a better week!

    You'll get through it, and you'll be a great mother to your little one; have patience & believe in yourself. Love, Alexis

    I'm sorry to hear about the paranoia that was keeping you off line, but I'm glad you're back, and hope you can stay as much as possible. I've had bouts of paranoia as well, and much of it keeps me totally isolated. I should be able to start therapy next month, and my sponsor is back; turns out she was never "gone," just really busy. And she's had to adjust to the fact that I can't make face-to-face meetings, but do on line meetings everyday. I'm supposed to email her about my thoughts on Step Three that I'm currently doing, but between DS, my online meetings, and my one-handed typing that makes me "hunt-and-peck" at the keyboard, I'm having a tough time getting to her. But I shall. I wish you all the serenity and acceptance, and I hope to hear from you soon. Love, Alexis

    Your 2 and a half years is absolutely wonderful. Do you attend meetings, have a sponsor, and work the steps? Well, if you are, you're doing a lot more than I'm doing. I went back to smoking cigarettes over a month ago, and my sponsor sees that as a relapse. And I'm not doing meetings right now, b/c the ones I have access to are in the evenings, when my tardive dyskinesia is at its worst, and they conflict with my medication times. So my sponsor currently isn't having anything to do with me, which makes me, in the eyes of the fellowship, "dry" rather than "recovering." Oh well, you can please some of the people some of the time...but I do on line meetings daily. I'm just not working the steps with a sponsor right now. I'm going to start seeing a therapist soon; one who deals with dual-diagnosis. Keep in touch. Love, Alexis
