Thankful
1) I am thankful for friends. I may not have alot of them, but the ones I have are definitely keepers!
I spoke with my friend Shane today for nearly an hour. He is a writer and a poet. He is an observer by nature and has alot of "people insight". In a way we are similar creatures. We both are the type that...

The TRUTH according to Graycen:
sings: *Rain, Rain! Come and stay! At least for another day...*
When I left work this morning I couldn't help but stop and tip my face up to meet the onslaught of raindrops. I let myself get pretty wet before I popped into my car. Nothin' like a good rain for the cleansing of the soul.

Today is an entirely different day then yesterday. *Duh* Well THAT was a stupid thing to say. Of COURSE it is! What I guess I mean is that I'm not feeling all strong and wise like I did yesterday.

I just stopped by to check what may have happened on-line before I head for the train - this is important since there is a news report that all of the trains are running late ...
I think that I may have been drawn here by the sense of your continuing pain that is so present in your multiple journal entries over the past couple of days ...
I don't know if tomorrow will be better worse or about as crappy as today ... I know that tomorrow will be here ... and I hope that will be a good thing or me ...
I will offer you my end of the work day HUG in the hopes it makes you smile and laugh for at least an instant - I mean what else can a lame computer-geek turned the lowest form of life on the planet offer you via this website ???
I do know that when tomorrow comes, I will be back here, God willing, and a Tuesday HUG will be awaiting you as well m'lady
I hope you look forward to coming here to receive it ...

Glad you held on. It makes me feel better when things work out for others, means there might be a chance for a sap like me.
What a difference a day makes....
I don't know what to say here.
....stares at *blink* blink* blink* of the cursor for nearly an hour.... ( which isn't too difficult to do. Did you know that women who are on the pill blink faster then women who aren't? It's true. Ask Men's Health Magazine.)

Good for you. Hang on to it, because if you lose it you end up like me, who is floating through life in a numbness that isn't drug induced.
Yes. I am bi-polar and have been without medication for about 2 months now. I get especially bad around the full moon and when I am having my period... both which happen to coincide with each other A LOT! When I have my manic upswings I feel like supergirl! I feel indestructable and sexy and happy and wonderful. ( I wish I could bottle that...

I'm sorry to hear you are going through this. I don't have these swings myself but I do know two people that are very close to me that suffer from the same thing. One is one of my best friends and he copes by drinking and snorting coke, which unsurprisingly doesn't help. The other is my ex and she decided to up and move to Vancouver because she realised that no matter what she was not going to be happy in the relationship.
My only advice is try and keep the relationship and the depression seperate. Love won't fix the depression, but that doesn't mean you can't have a great relationship, I think you just have to be able to realise that the depression is a result of being bi-polar and not necessairly the relationship and you should be fine. But I realise that it's probably harder than it sounds. I hope you can make it work though, you deserve to be happy, with a great guy.
If you need anything I'll do whatever I can for you, and if you find this little post annoying you can slap me for it.
Take care

I felt the same way during my worst depression, and I wouldnt even let my bf visit me until I was finally admitted to the psych hospital.
I hope you make it through this, and remember to notice when the is shining, sweetie!

Why must my insecurities get in the way of a good thing? Not that my insecurities are unfounded 'cause I have every reason to feel this way...I just can't get over it as quickly as I had hoped. Looks like i will end up wrecking everything....
Of course being on a manic downslope doesn't help right now. I'm cycling more then ever lately. *sad face*...

Insecurities are real and legitimate ...
The issue for me is how I react to them ... I know it is usually a head vs. heart/gut thing - I try to understand what I am fearful of (as suggested above - it is usually does involve risking being hurt and/or disappointed) ...
I have been taught over the past couple of years (after a lpt of years of screwing things up) that talking & sharing the feelings and thoughts w/ people who care and are supportive & non-judgmental helps me determine what the emotions are - where they are coming from and if the insecurities are coming from me or from someone/somewhere else ... from this distinction, I can usually put things into proper perspective
I know all of this sounds easier than it is - I still struggle w/ it all - but when I do and calm down - I have a path to follow which usually ends up eventually in a good place ...
remember - you get what you pay for & this is just my 2 cents (and is not worth more) ... I hope it helps m'lady - and I'll listen if you need someone
hugs

Why are you insecure ?
Im sure that if anything gets wrecked its not you that will wreck anything.

Burning the roof of your mouth while eating pizza is NOT fun! In fact it is quite painful! Needless to say I haven't eaten anything solid since then 'cause it hurts so fucking bad.

I can remember a friend of mine eating a chilli pizza and crying because it was so hot.
I asked him whats the point of eating food that hurts and he responded in a week voice 'because it tastes so lovely'
