Hello to all! It is raining outside and I have decided to make this day my "REFLECTION DAY".

I feel better now than some weeks ago. I have come to the conclusion that may be it's wise to reduce my activities here. That does not mean that I don't have concern for how you all celebrate your good times and how you have to relate to your very bad times.

It is more related to one of my views of life: "The more one does something, the more it becomes a habit that may be steals valuable time one could have used on other topics. Everyone is responsible for how they use their time here on earth (related to how many possibilities they have of course)".

We are so many here that for somebody who has not English/American as a first language, it takes a really looooooooooooooong time to write an answer to everybody. Hope for your understanding! I will still come here, but not so often. I have been blessed that have had all you co-sufferers to share good and bad times with after somebody, last year, psychologically jumped upon my back and almost broke it. Hope that may be I have meant something to you as well.

For the time being I will finish a book I have written. It is some sort of a professional book. I prefer the anonymity forums like these gives, so of course I will not reveal the title nor my profession (work part time).

I have a lot of things to look forward to. We have a lot of celebrations in my family on the steps of the coming weeks. So It will not be boring. After that the normal everyday life will return, with normal everyday problems and with good happenings as well

I have a strong faith in balance! I disagree with all the "happy-land" prophets ... I put my trust in cognition and our abilities to make choices according to what occurs on the road, even if one has a diagnose (regularities in daily life, having a so good social life as possible, enough sleep, healthy food, physical exercises, relaxing exercises, religious practice, tolerance for others also when they have different views than me, and more ...).

When I place such a value on our cognitive skills, that does not mean that feelings are unimportant to me, but they shall not decide over my rationality.

I wish all of you the best opportunities for developing good coping skills and to be able to use them when necessary (medication is also a form of coping tool).

See you now and then!
