Hi everyone I have not been around for a while.. I guess you could say I am isolating again... I am really not in a good place right now.. Things are just not very good for me and I figure some of it is my own making and some of it is not of my own making.. I guess though what I make of any situation is up to me.. Right now though I just do not have the want or the strength to do anything.. but I am trying to not isolate so much I know that will help will be back later after work tonight .. Hope all is well..
paula,
i was just jumping off for a min. and needed to tell you first that i have missed you posting.
isolation is the pits, the more you isolate, the harder it is not to...
if you don't mind me asking... were you seeing a therapist or a psychiatrist? i just went to an appt. yesterday and boy is it an eye opener for me.
love you and please stick around

Paula,,,,,,,Hey Sweetie. I am glad you see you posting. I meant to start a post last week and give everyone your message, and never did, sorry.
I know things are tough right now, and my heart goes out to you and your family. You know, though, that things will not get better by resorting to our old ways. We are here for you, and will help you when you can't help yourself, let us. You have my number, and I am only a few minutes from you now, call me, or come by whenever you want.
Love you, Carol
carol, we need to meet up... how far away are you from macon again? paula, are you near macon at all???
STac......yes we do. I am 120 miles from Macon. Dang it! I was just there last week for 2 days, should have called you. We went to the GA Beta Club convention at the coliseum with my son's Beta Club. What a trip! 13 eleven year olds for 2 days. LOL
Anyway, we could meet in maybe Griffin, that's half way, and have lunch. I could go and kidnap Paula and bring her with me, and of course you could bring Kaylin for us to ouuuu and awwww over. LOL
ummm... yea you should have called me!
i am one exit over from the colliseum. let's see ... I'm on 75, the 16 split is a mile up or so, and there is the coliseum, that is where i went for my 'assessment' lol...
we should meet up soon , i'd drive to griffin. it's not too far at all....

Hi Paula,
I can tell you from experience that isolating isn't helpful to us at all. Even when it seems impossible, try to force yourself not to. I was never one to do that but found myself doing it anyway. Coming out of isolation helped me to be myself again. I found that even when I thought I wasn't able to, I was. Things seem so much worse if we crawl into our own little holes and wallow in our misery. Life really is worth living no matter what the situation.
xxxxoooo

I'm sorry to hear that you're feeling this way Paula, hopefully you're on the other side now and wanting to talk to people. I'm always just a phone call away and miss talking to you. Hope you're around tonight so that we can chat.
Big Hugs honey,

I am sorry to hear you are having a hard time too Paula.
Isolation is so hard to break. I wish you the best.
welcome back!

Paula, I hope you had a nice day, and that the drive home wasn't too terrible! My heart aches for you knowing you are making that commute daily, and in this weather it has to suck. Chin up, smile on, think about Lily and her new sister/brother and know that life has so much to offer you beyond the bad stuff.
You deserve to be happy, and I know it will come, just don't give up on youself !
Stac, Sorry I didn't reply this morning, I had to leave, and just got back. Honestly, I would love to meet you and spend some time talking f2f. You and many more from this board for that matter. But since it is actually possible for you and I, we certainly should do it, and I mean it! If you will wait until after Christmas on me, I promise to set it up and we can meet near Griffin one day for lunch and girl talk, OK? I think you are a super sweet and intelligent chick and would love the opportunity to get to know you better and for us to help each other f2f in this battle we share. If you are game, hold me to it and in JAN. we will make it happen!
Now I need to go and throw up. Catch you later!
Thanks to all of you that posted.. It really means alot to know that someone knows how you feel, and cares enough to post.. I know I owe some of my friends phone calls and I will call soon.. My cell gets really bad reception where I live so I have to call when I am working.. I am trying to get my self back into a better frame of mind.. but it is hard, but I know that I can do it,, eventually.. It has just been hard, to feel anything lately, I just do not seem to care, enough to change things or make things better but I am trying.. I moved the first week in October.. I moved back where I use to live 6 years ago.. in fact LOL.. right next door to where I use to live.. I really am not happy here but for the sake of my finances the move was neccessary but I miss living where I was... There is alot more to it and I am not really ready to share everything but I know that I can and you guys will understand and that helps... Thanks again for your kind replies..
Stacy I am not sure how far Macon is from here but I live real close to Carol so it cannot be too far.. We all need to get together soon... ..
