even in our darkest of days and nights lets all go to bed and realize that we actually made it through another day and we are still here fighting to get and stay well no matter how hard the day we are still here!!!! even if we don't feel like it... we all deserve a big pat on the back and a way to go from eachother.

So, from me to all of you,

WAY TO GO- YOU DID IT. YOU MADE IT THROUGH ANOTHER DAY!

EXCELLANT IDEA CARLY...one i do everyday...even if I only sleep for alittle bit and then i feel as equally happy to be facing another day...

deleted_user 10/30/2007

Thanks! Same to you!

deleted_user 10/30/2007

you know I could get to like you.....

that was pleasant

deleted_user 10/30/2007

Yep, and this is one of the reasons I hate going to bed, because next thing you know it's another day to face! But yeah, that's a great way to look at it...thanks Carly!

A great daily reminder! One I also do daily, regardless.

Backatcha! *wink* *smile*

Excellent post and well-received by me. I needed that and I believe we all do. Sometimes I have to pat my own back.....but sometimes I can't reach it and that's when my DS friends reach it for me. Thanks to you all!!!

Yup yup I did make it thought the day even thought I stayed 45 min later then I was suppose to at work cause I had dtuff to do. I helped my 'guys' at work and got a lot accomplished. I know I am goin into the pms time and I didnt kill anyone and I didnt even WANT to kill anyone so all is good ;p

Im not hypo atm... but I think thats the pms talking ;p but Im not depressed either... so maybe nice mix lol... hope that hypo comes back though lol

you know m2m has a good point. I do actually hate to go to bed yet fight myself to go to bed cause I know I need to. I dont like to go tobed because by the time I feel like Im accomplishing stuff the day is over and I have to stop knowing it will take a long time to get there again... I am getting better about it but its still rough.

anyone else go through that thought process?

deleted_user 10/30/2007

Buggy -- yes, that's a big part of it for me too. I get a lot done at night and it takes me so long to get going the next day. *Maybe* if I slept at the same hours as most people it would be the same, but I've been in this pattern so long I have no idea.

my boxing gloves are on the table by my bed...ready to fight another day :)

deleted_user 10/30/2007

I have been here before, a long long time ago and now I am back.Forgive me for not just saying what I want to say,even under a triple dose of antidepressants it is still raw and seeping and I am hesitant at revealing it as at least under the bandages around my heart I don,t have to look at how raw and wounded.My child was cleaved from my heart by his own actions. my child of ten,turning eleven...
