if it is any comfort to you, any hope - I felt that way once.

everything was taken away from me - e v e r y t h i n g

I was devastated beyond belief, disoriented, I was lower than anything, and no one would help me - I still remember the hang-ups of the telephones, the slammed doors in my face by my mother, you name it -

I truly thought I was going to die from the pain.

therapy is helpful, and it brought perspective to me, and little by little i crawled again, then walked - this time completely on my own ... so that could never happen to me again - EVER.

worse days of my life.

I am ill now, as you probably heard, and to tell you the truth, it's nothing compared to those dark, lonely, unfair, devastaing days ... and I face death again, but I'm better off than back then.

I had many good years before this year!

That is my hope for you - that you make it out of this, that you find a real life support group, and a Dr. that cares - to turn your head around.

you - nobody here - deserves to suffer like this.

I understand it.

it's traumatizing.

BUT

it can get relieved, thru help ... get help my friend.

more is available today than in my day - if only I had contact with this place back then, boy - it would have expedited my hardships - because I wanted to feel relieved - the pain was excrutiating!!!!!

you will get better -it's a process, but it will move along faster with some help.

love,

xoxoxoxoxoxxoxoox

Please don't hide your hurting. Helping and healing can only begin when you show the world how much it hurts.

I care Im broken to pieces

Hi Purple, you can pick up your pieces and put yourself back together, step by little step. Doing it yourself with help is the only way back to mental health. This is what I did.

Hi purple,
I have the super glue to put yourself back together, let out your pain and let us know what we can do, it sucks to feel like you've gone to pieces. Try to find a way to release some of your pain by writing it down in a journal, or write it as a letter then burning it to release the pain in the flames, I don't know if that will help but it could hurt.

You are surrounded by friends and never alone, lets put the pieces back one at a time and take baby steps to healing your heart and mind.

I dont really know how to do this, im still learning...not very techie lol.

but i understand I feel the same way. its tough to let people know whats going on in your life to offer to help. thats why i joined this. I dont have the guts to talk to the people around me. I fear they wont understand at all, or theyll just send me somewhere that wont do any good. and on top of that, blame themselves and feel bad. But I have plans to fix everything one day. Right now Im just on hold. I think it depends on your situation for picking up the broken peices and starting over. I guess then the trick would be to be confident enough to do that. If you can find someone who you can trust, you should slowly try to open up to them. Its the only way that you can understand yourself completely.
