I am so happy for you that your daughter called and that you can relate to her being 17 and having ups and downs. Having this knowledge and experience will really help you relate to her. I am glad your doing the job thing. It really sounds like all your hard work on yourself is starting to pay off and things are starting to go your way. Congratulations

Sid

Not sure how to reply just yet 17 year olds are so up and down. (wow like me). Had the first job thing appt today and did a job skill assssment test online today. Still not too hot tho. No appetite yet. I get asked what I like and I still dont know. Sleep?

So even after taking a beta blocker, the half mile drive today was real real bad. So IDK about that.

Lance, it's great to hear your daughter contacted you! I am very very very happy for you. Slowly things come that we realize we can be grateful for.....and I am sure you are grateful for this contact!!!!

RE: a letter to your dad. My parents are both deceased and I recently confessed in another post. I write them letters. There were some issues when I was growing up and I address those issues and other things I want to tell them. I look for the positive things that occurred too, I think it is just as important. I like Ashley's idea, she may have been the one to give me the idea. I know it helps.

Hang in there Lance, I know sleep is an issue for me. It's our way of escaping this depression. You'll find as you get better (and you will bet better) that it's not so hard to stay out of bed some days. But if you need the rest - take it; be grateful for it. And then schedule something FUN to do! What do you like to do for fun Lance????

Lance!

This is good, good news! Your daughter emailed you, that's amazing! In my oppinion this can be just what you need. You should tell her how you have been doing. Tell her all that you have accomplished, you quit smoking, you tried a work out routine, you have gone to group meetings, worked on this support group and so on and so forth. There are so many things you can share with her! She is reaching out to you Lance!

You could also share the video you made if you feel comfortable doing so.

Lance, you once mentioned that you had problems with your father growing up. If you has sent him an email how would you have wanted him to respond? What would you need from him? Also, what would you like your daughter to know about you now? Now is your chance! Be sure to give us updates.

Members, what are your thoughts?

My daughter sent me a email, asking how I was. It was a surprise. Why do I get a message when Im down instead of up. I dont want to say how Ive been, which is still bad. Having a lot of anger and fear now, so hope Im closer to better. My thoughts have been very bad the past few days and I still just want to sleep.
