[QUOTE="totoro, post: 148150, member: 3155"] I don't have lots of time... but I think about you often... I have been through a bunch. I have Bipolar Disorder and PTSD... So sometimes I am really in a funk. To say I understand what you are dealing with? Well I can't but I have my own deal!!! One thing I have done, besides little bits of what everyone else has said here and there. This was before husband, before I went to college... before I had anything. I would look at what my Mother did... suicide. I would say to myself, "Well that is always an option, but let's see what tomorrow brings, because how much worse can it get?" I would seriously tell myself this, I would say and this was in a joking manor a lot of the time, OK let's see what else you can dish out??? Because I always have that option... But I knew full well I was never going to take that option. It was a way for me to pull myself up, and say, Really how much worse can it get? Like a challenge, I have been through this! I can take it!!! I think of you the same way!!! I mean, seriously, what can't you do? You have been to H#$L and back!!! They can't stop you know! There has to be a purpose, you can't have been built up for all of this, just to stop. Find the funny in a tiny thing... like the absurdity of all of this!!! WHAT MORE CAN HAPPEN!!! Because you can take it... you can. You are built for this. Even if you don't feel it now. I hope you don't take any of this the wrong way... I truly feel you can rise above and are meant for something big... you are so creative, you are so STRONG! You are. You just need to believe... [/QUOTE]
