Oh geesh! I'm so glad she made it! I tried to follow the links at the bottom of the page, but they aren't working. Did you ever find out what had happened?

I have serious concerns about you just stopping your meds, but I understand your concerns too. Have you talked to your therapist about this? I think this is important enough to call or email her. She might suggest that you at least take the meds every other day rather than just stopping cold turkey. I don't know what your current rx is, but in my experience, you usually need to be 'weaned' off of the meds rather than just stopping them outright.

Hang in there Campbell. ((hugs))

They did switch your meds? If so, I'm glad to hear that. Things may be a bit rocky at first as your body withdraws from the old med and gets used to the new one. The highs and lows you're experiencing may just be part of that process and should level out. Make sure to tell your therapist and psych about that -- whether they level out or not.

I'm not your mom, but I will tell anyway, your life is worth living sweetie, and you are contributing so much more than you know right now. Hang in there and keep writing and keep talking. ((hugs))

Not sure if it matters, but I'm not going anywhere.

I understand what you're saying. I used to write poetry that made people worry, but writing it made it better.

Please do me a favor though. Print this out and put it in your pocket:

You matter, more than you know. Your leaving would leave a hole in the world, no matter how small you think that hole would be.

I understand how having a plan helps you hang on a little bit longer. I really do get that. Please do me a second favor though? Please add this to your plan: Call somebody first, and don't stop calling until you talk to a live human being. That will help me to feel less worried.

I'm glad you went back, and that you decided to keep going back despite how betrayed you feel. ((hugs))

::hugs:: You're not her, sweetie. You know what this sounds like to me? Good old fashioned PTSD, not schizophrenia. Have you tried talking to your therapist about switching your meds if you don't feel they're helping?

I'm sorry you're having such a tough time right now. It must be so frustrating and you sound like you feel so hopeless it hurts. I know the feeling, believe me. Different circumstances, yes; same hurt and hopelessness. Lots of cyberhugs and prayers and hopeful thoughts are coming your way.

Hang in there kiddo. ((hugs)) I've struggled with the blogging boundaries too, so I hear ya. I've found that when I do my private journalling regularly, it's easier to maintain blogging boundaries that I feel comfortable with. For me, I *need* to get all this stuff in my head out. There are times that I literally can't sleep at night if I don't write everything down. I have gotten out of bed just to journal, and once my journalling was done, I was able to sleep again. In fact, the night before last, I had stayed up too late and didn't have time to journal before going to bed. I ended up spending about thirty minutes laying in bed debating whether or not to get up and journal -- and I wish I had. I kept telling myself it was too late, but that thirty minutes that I spent debating it in my head, I could have spent writing in my journal instead. Sometimes I call it detoxxing my brain. Just getting it out and onto paper makes it easier to let go -- at least long enough to get to sleep. :) I found this nifty little site too, 750words.com where I do my journalling online, but it's kept private. You might want to check it out.

*hugs* I'm so sorry that Maggie freaked out when she read whatever was in your diary, and that she let someone talk her into not taking you back home. *hugs*
