    About Me

    PTSD, BIPOLAR, SEMI-AGORAPHOBE, ADD. Single Mom, Soon to be empty-nester. Pretty isolated as far as people go. But really miss people in genaral, and the social interaction I once had.

    Interests

    MY KIDS, PETA, The ASPCA, -Animals in genaral- PAINTING, BEADING, DRAWING, PHOTOGRAPHY, That kind of thing. Not religious AT ALL. But I like the teachings of people like Thich Naht Hann and Echart Tolle. The whole "mindful" thing. Just wish I could focus long enough to actually live it. I am so....OH LOOK A RABBIT!!!

      OWSHEN, I'M BACK. ACTUALLY, I'VE BEEN BACK FOR OVER A WEEK BUT I HAVE AND AM REALLY SICK. NOT REALLY COMPLAINING BECAUSE COMPARED TO WHAT I READ IN YOUR LAST FIVE JOURNALS I AM "PEACHY". GOOD LORD, GIRL, COULD YOU HAVE ANYMORE BAD LUCK???? WHAT DENIZENS OF THE UNDERWORLD DID YOU PISS OFF??!!! I CAN COMPLETELY UNDERSTAND WHERE YOU ARE COMING FROM RIGHT NOW... YOU FELL DEAD AND LIFE IS THE PITS, BIGTIME, SO LET'S GET THE DANCE OVER WITH. YEAH, IT SOUNDS LIKE A GOOD SOLUTION GIVEN THE PRESENT SITUATION BUT IN THE LONG RUN YOU DO HAVE A LIFE IN FRONT OF YOU THAT CAN BE FULL FILLING. I KNOW THIS SEEMS HARD TO ACCEPT RIGHT NOW AND LIFE IS SLINGING A LOT OF SHIT AT YOU. YOU NEED TO LEARN TO DUCK!! OR TURN IT INTO MANURE AND GROW SOMETHING WONDERFUL. I AM SO... SAD TO READ YOUR JOURNALS AS WHEN I LEFT YOU WERE ON AN UPWARD CLIMB AND SEEMED SO... MUCH BETTER. I HOPE WE CAN GET YOU TO THAT PLACE AGAIN. I WILL POST A JOURNAL TODAY GIVING A BRIEF UPDATE OF MY LAST TWO WEEKS. HA, WHO AM I KIDDING, WHEN HAVE I EVER BEEN BRIEF!! I HAVE NOT ANSWERED ANY JOURNALS AT ALL BUT I WANTED TO GET IN TOUCH WITH YOU. I THOUGHT OF YOU A LOT WHILE I WAS AWAY. I CONSIDER YOU A DEAR FRIEND. PLEASE, WRITE BACK AND UPDATE ME OR BETTER STILL.. CALL ME COLLECT. YES, I AM SERIOUS!! MY NUMBER IS 1-902-667-0809. I WOULD LOVE TO HEAR YOUR VOICE AND BE ABLE TO CHAT IN REAL TIME AND NOT THROUGH THE JOURNALS. DID YOU GET MY CARD? ANYWAY, I AM GOING TO WRITE MY JOURNAL, GIVE IT A READ AND GET BACK TO ME. I'LL KEEP CHECKING FOR YOUR RESPONSE EVEN IF I DON'T ANSWER ANYONE ELSE. YOUR FRIEND THROUGH THICK AND THIN, DEBBIE

      From MSNOW October 28

      You know when I lay down my mind is racing also but that isn't the greatest distress going on. Sometimes, so many conversations get going that they spin me right out of the arena and I feel paralyzed and I get to the point where I am simply listening to the various aspects of my mind conversing back and forth and I am simply a shell that contains them. When I try to control of my mind and engage in internal communication to calm things down I can't because the dialogue is so fast and multi-directional that I can't find a place to intervene.
