Hi Diva,
 
I thank you for your support, you always brighten my day.  I'm still down but trying to get out of this funk so I can move on.
 
Hope you're doing well!

Hello Mom of 3,
 
Wow sounds like that was a rough day. Btw, youdon't every have to apologize for not being positive. This is what this forum is for. It is a place where you can say how you really feel! It is a place to be understood. Hugs to you. I think it is brave of you to admit when you are feeling blue. So please vent here anytime. How are you today?

Hi Diva,
 
I'm just hanging in there. Things are still strained and I am tired.  There are things that are really hard for me to take and my nerves are raw.  If I didn't love him and if it weren't for my son I don't think I'd be here now.  I know that sounds horrible, but I really wonder how much I can survive sometimes. 
 
Nothing in particular has happened today, I'm just tired of being ignored and feeling like I don't matter.  Sometimes I just want it to stop, then I remember that if I give up there is no chance for something better so I suck it up and move on.
 
Sorry I'm not more positive right now.  I know it doesn't help you much and I know you are down right now.  Please read your other threads where I have more positive things for you.  It's always easier for me to be positive about the dilemmas of others.

Hi Panda
 
Good to hear from you.  I hope your appointment went well.  Let me know.  I wouldn't worry about "hijacking", anything you want to write is fine and I don't consider it a "hijack".  So feel free.  Insight is gained in so many ways that I'm not worried about maintaining a thread. 
 
Take care and keep us posted!

Thanks again Breanne,
 
There are some really wonderful people who come to this site and they have become very special to me.  Diva is very sweet and caring, Wildcat has some truly "wild" perspectives that tend to make me smile even if I don't feel like it.  DJ, macho biker dude that he is, has such a kind and generous side to him that I can't help but smile.  Sheba is extremely intelligent and is strong in a way that I'm not sure she is aware of.  Patrick has alot of insight and it's always interesting to read his posts.
 
All of the moderators guide the discussions extremely well and help direct perspecticves toward the positive, I am thankful for that.
 
Then there's the new posters Goofy, Gigi, Panda II and Emily - new people to get to know.  I am amazed at what you can "see" in people without physically seeing them.
 
I value the input from these people and wish them the best.  I'm so happy to have a place to say things where I am understood and not made to feel so defective.  Everyone else probably feels the same.
 
So thank you all!
