pain

Diva,

There is Absolutele Nothing wrong with a dumb show now and again. But if all you spend your time at are these dumb things and have nothing more to say but ... she was pretty I (I I I ) will find you extremely boring zzzzz

zzzzz.

TV is meant to be escapist and entertaining. Some want light and relaxing and others want engaging. It depends on what your day is like and what you need to let go!!! I like fiction and good characters but really good stories with unexpected plot! So far House has kept me, Criminal Minds, Ghost Whisperer.

Anyone take Cymbalta and when did it start working for you

Hi Bella.

I have been on Effexor for a while now... I had to work up to my dose for 4 weeks and wait anothe 8 weeks for it to work properly! 12 weeks. And to top it off the stuff makes me sleeply so I have to take it between 6 and 9 pm ! Heaven forbid I forget a pill because I get SICK!

And now 2 years after all this misery, this stuff has made me sick again. THe Effexor started making me cycle rapidly, make my Bipolar Diorder become unstable so I needed to add another med!

So Bella,

I know the first few months of a new medication is tough and everything seems to be against you. But hang in there. Even if it is forced, do the right things most of the time and keep your doctor informed.

Diva news...

Hi Diva,

ah that you did not mention. If you have done it before what was the withdrawl you had to deal with and what are the "newer" alternatives? Or are there some trier and tested old time drugs...?

Like for my son and his ADD we have a choice of stuff that is less than 7 years on the market or ritalin??? **we went with Concerta...** newer but more hope

Diva I would never describe you as a whinner.

I just do not remember what you are studing so I do not know why a teacher's recommedation is the determining factor for admission to the faculty. Is it a small school? A very select programme? A very specialized concentration?

(sorry I am a bit confused you teach french, but anxiety meds are part of your studies)

Diva,

To tell the truth you are in a very stressful situation. School is the source of lots of frustration. Your personal relationship might not be as seamless / effortless as you need it to be right now. Finances, Homelife, and the rest seem to all just be in the way somehow. Now in the sense that you have been complaining but that you are having difficulting coping with everything. as though you do not have the the energy to deal with all.

Why can I not make any sense?

Diva, It just feels like this is the season where things are difficult.

I do not want to give you some non-sense lines about how every thing will be better in the morning. You have a lot to deal with. And I could tell you, take things one at a time. Being anxiety driven you will want to deal with 200 things at a time.

**so can i ask that you think about being a superwoman and take care of yourself?**

Tip of the day

If my husband took two minutes to think about it he could tell what mood I am in just by where I am in the house.

Manic - I want to escape the prison block.

HypoM- I want to change everything in the prison block.

Bad day - I am reading alone in bed and am crabby.

Depressed - I am hiding in the cellar doing the laundry.

Alone

hi stardust.

sometimes we want to be alone but not lonely.

sometimes we want help not someone to take over everything.

from the outside depression is just a series of things we did not do ... on the inside depression is an illness that hurts. So your Belle-mere is trying her best to help and be there for your both even if she has no idea. And she is taking her personal experiences of pleasant activities to try out.

One of our exercises here is to do a pleasant activity. Perhaps if you shared your notion of peace, tranquility and health with maman she would see that you have your health in hand (

or that your tastes are too different to reconcile

I hope you find some quite time to yourself today.

Tip of the day

I have had a few moments on the edge of control.
Where, like the caged tiger, I walked back and forth. Ready to escape. THe house a tiny cage. Barely enough room to take 5 paces and turn around for another 5 paces.

A prison where I have to do the time till I am set free. My own person able to choose do as I please.

not a good thing with my illness. It sets you up for lots of promiscuous and dangerous behavior before 16. It sets you up for years and years of conflict with parents who have no idea that I am their carbon copy.

THe interior where there is no air and the smells are of decay and age.

Inside where there is no privacy and the pride is reduced to being herded.

Here is where everything is stagnant and hidden.

My only escape as a teen was my bike and I would spend hours every weekend discovering this city. The wind in my hair in the sun and the rain. Any where but at home where my father would yell at me and my grandparents. Anywhere but at my mother's where she would cry and ask for conformation about being a good mother.

*******************************

So the interior has always been stifleing when I have had those moments of uncontrolled energy and extasy. THe realisation of being a part of the world and knowing there is so much to discover and experience!!!

The Stress Response and Role Transition

hi sylvie,

I know that month-end is stress periods and I know not to see certain people on my work place, I ask the boss what to do with a problem.

I know Christmas is coming up and will try to get the shopping done with before the 10th of december or go funny. THe holidays remind me of all those arguements and conflicts so I try to plan NOTHING.

I know that my daughter is most difficult at the start of a cold !!! (I was called into the director's office today! TIAMAT nearly killed the authority an educator). And I try to shuffle her off on my husband at that critical moment or find quite time for us!
