Is this a rational thought?

ooops, I thought pat had posted that...sorry sky!!

that's what I get for chatting and posting I suppose =D

hehe It just made me feel special...I generally get few replies =D 5 or 6 being my general highest number of replies

Trust me I know that feeling....some of my threads had me talking to me in them...I even started a thread called thread killer....so I know how good it feels when people care enough to post

Hehe I got kind of worried when there were so many members on and my thread was getting lots of views and no response...I over personalize pretty bad

lol I knows what you mean but to me its nice when folks take the time to reply even if its a hug or a sorry or heck even an I dunno ..its better than zero....some folks are afraid of saying the wrong thing so sometimes threads sit..thats sad IMO

I try to post at least a hug or post an 'I've read' message in threads that dont have any/many replies. I know how it feels to be the poster =)

Me too BP I am sure I miss a LOT but I do try....now back to you...when do you plan on catching this break before it happens?

I don't know, I kinda feel like I don't know people well enough to post sometimes...if it deals with a person's history. I don't know anyone here that well. *shrugs* I try, but I don't think I'm good at making friends =X

I like you and think youre cool.

I'm trying to wait until after christmas, as I've said...when it passes we'll see if the 'pending' feeling is still there. Sometimes it will go away and take the 'break/blowup/whatever you want to call it with it. =O

*blushes* thank you sleeps =D

I will see you tomorrow then cause I am gonna post then go but wanted to say goodnight

Good night..thank you for everything {{{{{{sleeps}}}}}} =D

Hon, just cry all you want. If you shake, shake, but get it all out and be real. I've sobbed and I've shaken to the point I couldn't even talk. I was horrified, but they realized the shape I was in and I got the help I needed. For once I let my "I'm just fine." face down and was real. Trust me, it will help you.

Many hugs,

Jan

BP Hi, I have a friend who occasionally takes the bull by the horns and checks herself in. It's like she just looses her bearings and needs a safe time out to collect her self and her thoughts. Kinda a mental vacation, no stress, no responsibilities. She can just focus on herself for a week and reset her clock. I'm of the opinon, whatever works....... Hope you make it through the holidays.
Re: responding to people's posts, I: 1) get shy attacks 2) feel funny seeing my name everywhere, like I'm hogging space, or think I know the answers or....... you know, twirl myself out and away from responding. It doesn't have to do with the poster, it has to do with me...... I guess I'm not perfect yet (haha). PS I think yer swell, take care. ))) ))BP (((( (( bumpies for you!!

Thank you so much {{{{jan}}}}

Thank you {{{{Bunny}}}}

I just want to not have to break...but I don't have control over it yet. Thanks, I hope I make it through the holidays too =)

I understand, I sometimes feel the same way that by responding I know better than others, when I don't lol I try not to think that, and offer support anyway--hope you find a way past too =D

PS--3rd page! -faints-

Hi, BP

I think it's a very smart thing you are doing, preparing yourself.

I have only had one hospitalization thusfar, but I thought the group therapy was the best part... We were blessed to have sevral EXCELLENT T's there who kept things going on the right track. I, like you, was reluctant to talk about my stuff...it didn't take long to realize that I was one of the LEAST screwed up people there, and there wasn't a whole lot I could say that would raise any eyebrows, so I dived in...it seemed like evryone sort of had her/his own "day", where that was the main topic of conversation. That wasn't by plan, it just kind of seemed that way.

Anyway, I really just wanted to send you some hugs....
(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((Beautiful Pain)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

Merry Christmas

Thank you Davey for the response! I hope groups go better if/when I go back. I've only had one hospitalization so far as well. =)

{{{{{Davey}}}}}

((((((((Beautiful_Pain)))))))) I think it's great that you're discussing this here. It has helped me to think thru some of my own problems.

I think that this is certainly a rational thought. You know you need the help and you know where and how to get it. I would not suggest being one way when you are feeling that you are not that way. Just be yourself...and if yourself right now is impolite, and not a "good" patient, then be that. Do not be a way that is not true for yourself.

{{{{{{susan}}}}}} Thank you for replying, glad I inadvertantly helped you.

{{{{{{Lexi}}}}} Thanks for the the reply, and that makes alot of sense. I will try and remember that =)
