I think this is a bit of the version: the boy who called wolf, one time too many!

We know you as such a jokester, so when you are serious, and even say so, we're wondering are you really serious! So if you are, do tell what is really bothering you!

Ya got all of our hearts, and I'm sure we'll jump in as soon as you get a bit more specific. I just think of you as "mystery funny man".

She makes a great point. As soon as I see an Rman thread I think "Game On!"

The bad part is that, especially in the beginning, you gave some of the most direct and useful advice I have received on this forum.

I wish we could better know when you are serious and when you are giving us the gift of your overly clever humourous mind.

Good Luck with your Demons. They are wimps, you can lick em.

I tend to treat everything that rman posts as serious. I assume he is asking questions without asking questions.

Or he's just trying to get into my pants.

*shrug*

If you are being serious Rman, then get serious.... don't reference food, then say that you are being serious!

I would personally love to see the real Rman... the person that brought you to DS.... I bet he really is a great guy and not so annoying!

What are these demons you are speaking of? Are they worries that you can seem to quiet? Or are they actually really memories that will not let you sleep? Get specific.... I bet you would get more support and care than most that post, if you would lay it all out there, like the rest of us have!

If we witness those demons and they are ingrained, then we have created them.

The demons in your mind are yours. You have created them, and accepted them and welcomed them.

The question is, do you control them or allow them to control you? It's YOUR head. You're driving the bus. Allow them space, as japy says, our personal demons prevent us from living a guiltless life, so they suit a purpose, but do not allow them to take control.

This subject scares me!

What scares me is you looking off into the horizon like some kind of Captain of an English Man O' War. Did you pose for that picture Dale? There should be a flag in the backgroud fluttering bravely.

If that was you photo for you candidacy for president, you got my vote.

like I said

for me the only way to get rid of them 9and they are intimately attached to my guilt) is to burn them off by DOING, not TALKING.

Giving Dale the magic warding off demons wand....

I wonder if "demons" are what some people who have PTSD experience. . I have a couple memories I would really like to lose. Certain things trigger a one particular memory that almost sends me into a tourette's like episode to release the thought.
Just wondering??

ugh PTSD, like an albatross around the neck
