Carolyn,

HERE is where we unload all this misery on each other and it is o.k. Support means that we love each other and respect each other even when we don't agree. We are here to dry the tears. We are here to help ease the stress that goes hand in hand with this monster of a disease.

I, for one, think we can learn from differing opinions. As far as being bossy....I am the queen of bossy. No one has thrown me off the board yet. >> > To the group:> I just want to apologize to anyone I may have offended with any of my posting. I have major depression and there are times when I hit severe lows and may come across as being negative, pessimistic or as a "know-it-all". I have had depression since I was 5 years old, at least that is as far back as I can remember recognizing it. I take medication and have been through therapy but all the medications I take do not alleviate it enough to prevent my going into severe "down" days. Today is one of those days. So if I have come across in a way that has upset anyone I wish to apologize. I think I will keep quiet for a while until this depression lifts some. Again I am sorry. I guess I upset Sher and maybe others as well. I am sorry. My intention was to empathize but I dont think it came across that way. I will just read emails for a while and then go to bed, since I cant stop the tears from flowing. I hate this depression but we all have things we must go through> that are unpleasant to say the least, and this is one of mine. I wish you all a great weekend with easy breathing and lots of laughter. You are a great group of caring persons.> Hugs,> Carolyn>

Carolyn,

You haven't offended me and I seriously doubt that you've offended anyone. Please relax and know that you are in good company here. I've always felt alot of love and acceptance from this group and I want you to be sure of the same.

I understand the toll that depression takes on someone. My ex-husband suffers from clincal depression and ocd yet refuses any type of treatment. He's on SSDI. My son suffers from what we think is probably a form of bi-polar disorder which seems for the first time ever to be under good control with depakote.

Please just know that I don't think any of us is so thin skinned that we'd be offended by someone honest opinion. Someone may disagree but that doesn't mean they're angry or offended.

We love you and need your input and expertise. You are loved and prayed for and precious to me and I think it's safe to say to all of us!

Carolyn...I'm very sorry to hear you are in low spot. Many of us here speak of depression and the lows we deal with. I too have depression, since I was a teenager. The Cymbalta I recently changed to has been a positive thing for me. I feel ever so much better lately.

I certainly don't need an apology...we were both expressing our feelings and experiences and I know others make decisions for themselves as to what is acceptable.

I hope you will not stop posting. You did not upset me. Your posts are very helpful and informative to me and I've seen other posts that thank you for your knowledge!

I know downer-days do distort our reactions.

We need each other here, warts and all...yours, mine or others!

Love to you. Sher

Dear Carolyn, This is a place where we share everything and if we can't be honest about stuff then we shouldn't be posting. It's a little more difficult because there's a delay because of the typing, but it stirs up conversation between people. You find that other people are experiencing the same things you are and it brings a closeness. We're in this together. I find it interesting that a lot of us are battling depression. I've had depression for a lonnngg time. I was taking zoloft and then hated being a stepford wife and went off. Now I think with the winter months upon us, I'm going to have to start taking it again. I just can't shake the blues. So, we should share all that too which we do. You are an inspiration in what you say, Carolyn. I, for one, would miss your posts if you weren't posting. So, when you're

ready, come join us! We ARE a great group of caring persons and you are one of us!

Carolyn;

Now that you are going through a "bout" this is the time for you to keep in touch. Hiding yourself away won't do you any good. If you've upset some people I'm sure they'll understand now that they know the circumstances. Besides a little high blood pressure every now and then won't hurt any of us. Communicate,communicate,communicate.
