I just posted a couple of replies to two topics and saw on my profile that someone (white tiger) asked where I went. I'm not sure where I've been but have been communicating telepathically with my neighbors through the wall...,insane!!! I finally realized that I am seriously isolated since leaving this group adn my senior citizen lunch time group, due to halluncaitons and and suspiscions.....I need a place to talk so here I am again. I can't afford therapy but have a very understandig psyhciatrist who gives me meds scripts every two months...money is a big problems with me...and I spend to make me feel happy. I would much rather be in contact with your guys here so I'lll say "HELLO AGAIN!!" Good that you're all here.

Hi. Well, my fast walk exhausted me and I am getting more out of this support group than I ever would the senior center lunch, where no one knows anything about me and I'm not about to say much either...Now cooking up brown rice for lunch and will explore the memoir resistance further.

Yaye....keyed in about four pages of my manuscript onto disk. Am now exhausted..I very satisfied with that result. And I'm very glad to be a part of this group. Thanks.

howdy max, welcome back.

two words with regards to the telepathy

tinfoil helmet. i made little tinfoil horns so i have a tinfoil viking helmet.

Thanks for the welcome. The Viking helmet is very funny and I've seen it on others. When my neighbors are into my mind, I put on my earphones and play usually loud rock music. Then, in the way my psychosis works, they get annoyed or tired that I can't hear them and they go away for a while...Just a while...Having a place like this to talk helps me a lot....a counter to all the isolation and people to relate to who understand. thanks.

I feel you. I havent been living off my disabilty 750 check most of the time since i was approved. The worst is at the last 10 days of the month when i dont have any money. UUUGG. Totally anxiety for the rest of the month. I know i need help finacially sometimes but im just an independent person and the people who despise giving me money to help me out : My parents" Dont know how much it sucks to want to be a functioning independent part of soceity but cant and have to ask for money. I keep trying to figure it out. I think time is the greatest inovator. I just keep going no matter how much it sucks. What else can you do?

I just read a dispiriting news report that over 60% of women over the age of 65 worry about ending up as being homeless bag ladies.....This kind of validates, though, my own concern about ending up homeless when my money runs out, a fear that a lot of people have poo-pooed me about (not here)...I remember a homeless friend I saw every night after leaving work and he said that people would come up to him in tears saying they were afraid they were going to end up like him, they were living from paycheck to paycheck....and then, by God, we have this Great Recession and I know a lot of those fears came true....ain't America great!!!?? Sorry, but sometimes I wished i lived in the Netherlands or something instead of this insistence on "rugged individualism" as one conservative put it to me....okay I'll stop ranitng .,,hope every one is having a good day...
