I was going to make a post including the names of everyone who has reached out to me, befriended me, and loved me for who I am, but when the list hit about 70 people I gave up. So this is to every single member here... every one of you. You guys have shown me friendship beyond anything I could ever imagine. I've never felt so loved in my entire life... not ever. I can't thank everyone enough for helping me pull through this last bout of depression. I guess this should go in kudos, but not everyone reads that forum so I'm putting it here. Thank you all so much. You guys have my undying love, devotion, and friendship. And to you Doc... I can't thank you enough for creating a safe place for people like me and the others here to come together for support, love, and friendship... a place where none of us are alone... a place where none of us feel out of place. Thanks, friend, from the bottom of my heart.

Ry

Ryan,
You are one of the first one to make me feel welcome to this site. You made me feel as if it was ok to talk about my pain. I don't personally know you. I don't even know what kind of pain you have suffered from, but you are a great person. You have befriended me and made me comfortable. I just hope that you will one day overcome all of the pain you have. One of my favorite sayings:
You lean on me and I will lean on you; and we will Both be OK!!!!!!

Melissa... in about an hour of chatting, I learned much about you. You're such a warm and caring person and we are blessed to have you here with us. When I think about the love you and others have shared, my pain seems almost insignificant. ((((((((((Mel))))))))))

Ryan, thanks for the kind words. I know you probably don't mean it like it reads, but your pain is not insignificant. The way you feel and the hurt that you have are real. I find that by listening to others, it makes me feel better and sometimes I find myself thinking wow I thought I had it bad. So please dont think for one second that you don't matter, cause you do. Just one more quick phrase, k?
To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world.
Thanks again for being there to listen!!!!!

Oh Melissa, after about 2 seconds at PC I realized that my pain isn't insignificant. But sometimes I get so overwhelmed with kindness here that it sure makes my pain fade away. I know that I matter here and IRL as well. Thank YOU for the kind words.

Ry

ryan, the kingdom i was referring to in this "metaphor" was your life.

you are doing so well, and i'm so proud of you. i feel very blessed to be allowed to "view" your up's, down's, and overall growth.

you're special, baby. To everyone who's reached out to me...

kd

Ah I see kimmy. I was kinda worried there for a sec. I guess my mind's a little numb right now, but hey, who could blame me. That's an awesome metaphor. I really like it. Mind if I steal it? I'll pay royalties To everyone who's reached out to me...

Ryan,

You and I have never really had the chance to get to know each other very well but I read your posts and I think you are one of the kindest gentlest human beings I have ever run across.

Besides if kd thinks you are a prince that is good enough for me. To everyone who's reached out to me... To everyone who's reached out to me... To everyone who's reached out to me...

Take care of yourself.

Ryan,
I just typed a reply to this, and somehow it got gobbled up by the internet demon (page not found, grrr!!) I think with the high winds we are having, the cable systems may be down, tv is still working though, ha!ha!
Well anyway, I wanted to tell you how heartwarming your post is, made my day To everyone who's reached out to me...
I hope you will continue to find comfort here.
I also want to say thank you for your replies, here and in chat. . . you are a "good kid" To everyone who's reached out to me...

Sincerely,
DE

(((((((((( Ryan ))))))))))))))))

Oh Ry!!!!

You are such a wonderful person and a dear friend. I missed you so much and am so excited you are back.
Kimmy is on to something here..... Shall I call you Prince Ryan from now on?
I kinda like the sound of that. So formal. Such a perfect title for a kind, gentle soul.
You are one of a kind Ry. I'm glad your home.

Well aren't you just the come back kid! I didn't really expect to find you quite so chipper after being so steamrolled. lol.

I can't really expand on all the sentiments on this thread, it's all there. You matter to everyone here, and the reasons are obvious. Glad you're back, up and about and in fine form. Drop me a line when you've caught your breath.
