[QUOTE="Star*, post: 311565, member: 4964"] Flutter, Sometimes I think we as people think or perceive our life talk as whining. Maybe it is, maybe...it's just sharing our day with friends who understand and either can sit back and think a bevy of things for you from "I understand completely to I have no idea how you cope day to day." True, there are times when I even find my own self writing and then think....UGH - :puppet: Oh good grief Star....your problems are soooo insignificant compared to, but you know what? They are my problems, and for the moment? They are huge and hard, and hairy and some days I think to myself I just do not want to deal with them and wish I could put them all in a bag and sit them out by the curb or had someone else in my life who could have handle everything for me. When there isn't? I come here - exhale, or I pray or I vent or I cry or heck - I feel sorry for myself and ya know what...?...It's okay. I get it. I think a lot of us "get it". Sometimes each of our abilities to understand, cope and deal are better somedays than they are others. Sometimes each of our lifes circumstances make us able to look at someone else and say Svuck it up or Poor dear how awful...... SO today I hope you are having a lucid day as you go into the school and deal with the powers that be. I am really sorry that you lost all the weight you did and that there is no other idea in a doctors head other than steroids which will put back on weight and depress you further (I really know how that feels) I am rejoicing in your son getting a job because right now I wish more than anything that DUde would be able to be the kind of son that 'could' live with us because at the end of the month he's going to be homeless and has no employment in sight - SC is the 3rd highest unemployment state in the US and he's a convicted felon with no HS education, So when I say I'm happy for your son getting a job - I truly mean it.

I guess maybe gentle words from others here helped me get through it. Not fix it, not make it better, just support - that's all you have in moments like that - that and hope. So dear one - Today while you are fuzzy, and hurting, and feel that no one could possibly understand where you are, how you feel, and what you are going through - it may be true - because your problems belong to you and you are coping with them the best way you know how -but DO know that somewhere out there is someone that cares and understands - and is thinking about you today.
