Just wanted to say thanks to everyone thats been talking to me, RainbowTrout and Marie thank you. I'm still pretty burned out, I really wish I wouldn't of burned all my bridges with her. Even just friends would of been cool, to see how shes doing and to just chat with her now and then but I'm afraid she is going to never speak to me again.

Lance, I have been going through the grieving process for almost three years. I had written so many poems on crying that my one friend, Robin said it looked like a rain forest.

I think the rock biter would really like it in Arkansas. We have so many rocks that he would never have to go hungry.

82280zx, I have been silent but not blind to your plight. Silent for my reasons, not yours.Im glad you made it to this thread where you can open up and let some of this out. Yes, it will take a very long time to grieve, but you will make it through. You seem like a determined and strong person. Welcome the thread.

Lance - another thing I thought about is you work nights right? So you are sleeping mostly during the day and not getting much daylight. You could also be experiencing a degree of seasonal affective disorder from not enough sunlight which affects the serotonin in your brain, just due to lack of sunlight from working nights and sleeping during the day. They sell light boards or broad spectrum light bulbs to help treat this, why don't you look into this. It won't mend your broken heart over losing your girlfriend, but it may help with some underlying depression and help you think a little clearer about things. Jax and Roy are right - you do have to grieve the loss. There is no easy way around it. Never say never, maybe with enough time, she will decide to be friends again, and if not you may meet someone else who will start you down a different road of life and happiness.

It sure is nice to have friends. One friend who I helped orientate came into help me this morning. The nurse told me if I had trouble with any of the residents to come see her. Then she told me if dayshift had any trouble with me to tell them to come see her. Then my lesbian old lady friend had a flat tire. So I ran her to the gas station to get a can of fix of flat and thought I might as well get some gas. Put 20 bucks in and then found I left my wallet at home. So the gas attendent lady went off on me about how they don't do credit there and she will need my driver's license. Three guesses where my driver's license is at and two don't count.

Hi -- some of you know me from this site and although I don't suffer from depression, I'm having a tough time right now. Last month, I lost my job unexpectantly due to lack of business and the business folded. I was there for 14 yrs. I received no vacation pay or severance -- just my last paycheck. My boss simply informed everyone at 3:30 on a Friday and locked the doors. I'm having a tough time finding another job. I'm over qualified for everything. I am collecting right now and very scared of my future and I cry at the drop of a hat. I've been through rougher times then this, but this has devastated me in a way I can't control. I do get up and get dressed every morning and go out looking for a job as well as using the internet. I know this isn't the end of the world, but right now for me it is. I ask God for guidance everynight and I know I have to accept that One Day At A Time things will work out the way they are supposed to. Thanks for letting me get this off my chest. I know from experience that the best way to heal is to share your fears with another.

I know the anxiety you are feeling, dealing with some of the same myself. I lost my job last july. 502 resumes/applications later and only 9 interviews, im still searching. It is hard. I lost my unemployment last November and have now went thru everythign I had put back just to survive. I am over qualified or no degree...I am floating somewhere in the middle, it is crazy. Yes, sharing is great therapy. xoxoxoxox |

![]() CLEO you are so kind ![]() i know alot of people see me acting a nut in the forums, but there is a very serious side to me. most people dont know or would not expect the line of work that i do. guess that is what i do, i come here and release. i have been working in outreach helping the needy and elderly for a long time. it is stressful work. funny how the tables turn, and you can end up on the other side of that fence. that is why i do not judge. you never know when you might find yourself in their shoes someday and you might not like how they fit!!! xoxoo |
