Is there a place for all the souls in this world who have no one who actively cares about them?

Is there a place where those poor souls can spill their guts and not be accused of being a whiner?

Is there a place where they can talk and talk and talk without reproach and without offers for solutions to their problems? (most semi-intelligent people know the solution anyway)

Is there a place for them to just BE without going to a looney bin?

Is there anyone who wants them around?

Is there anyone who understands that sometimes the solution would definitely be worse than the problem?

Is that place called Heaven and if so, how long must we stay here before we are called?

Is it ok to pray that you are called soon?

Hi Ozzie,

I believe whining is therapeutic!!

I think in general people with issues, are just more deeply sensitive and caring.

Ozzie,

Why would anyone be telling you what to do? You are very bright, and can make your own decisions.

Hugs,

EJ

Susan, yes, I've asked myself those same questions. I am right now, some of them.

I need desperately just to "BE" somewhere as well. Even thinking about going to a hotel room for a night to clear the noise out of my head from those around me. I understand.

Maybe we just need to sit somewhere and just talk...just be heard and know someone's listening without judgments or should's.

Like you, I know myself. I know my capablities, but also what I can't manage doing. So, while be aware of what I can and can't do, sometimes I just need to talk about how much that in itself sucks. Questions in a Depressed Mind

No one should tell you what to do or what not to do. You are so smart and special. You know these things. "To thine ownself be true."

I wish you peace.

Hugs,

Jan

It does seem that it's hard to find a way to say how one is feeling without people trying to "help" by offering solutions. It can be irritating, even when one knows they really "mean well."

So sorry you're feeling blue.

Thank you everyone for your support. I am beginning to feel better. I guess I needed to know someone cares, even if I am not yet ready to talk about it in the forums.
