MDJunction to me

"When I first came to MDJ, I was in a very dark place, and feeling quite alone, I don't know how I found this site, but I have been very grateful ever since, all of you have offered insight to the illness of Bipolar and the other things going on with me, being here has allowed me to find friends, and to feel safe in discussing things that I would never have shared before.

I believe it has also offered me the chance to reach out and help others. A simple Thank you, is all that I have to offer, to this site and to the wonderful people here.

Diary mishap
Sep 06 2008

I just spent a couple of hours writing a long entry into my diary and clicked "save" but it seems to have vanished!

I'm not about to start over but, in a nutshell, I've had a depressing, tearful day after another night of fitful sleep and have pitifully few people to talk with.  I'm overwhelmed by my physical and mental situation and want to live a fulfilling life within the parameters but, right now, it feels like 2 steps forward and 3 steps back.

Hi there! I know what you mean about writing a long blog into your diary, pressing the save button and viola', it's mysteriously vanished. It's like, what the hell just happened? Not only are my fingers, wrists, eyes and brain numb but I just lost every fricking thought I just wrote in here! I feel for you cuz it just makes you want to cry! smilies/cry.gif Well I hope you have a better night as far as sleeping, and if you ever want to vent pm me I have big shoulders and I know what it's like to talk to family members who "really want to listen" or act like they could give a flying fig! I swear sometimes I get more of a response from my cats and dog or even the bedroom walls than I do with "certain members" of my household!! smilies/grin.gif smilies/grin.gif
Anyways, take care and may you have some peace and harmony in your life!
Lots of gentle hugs
Deanna

Thanks for writing. You definitely sound like someone who can relate! I slept some better last night because I gave myself the rare "treat" of a Xanax at bedtime.

I noticed on your profile someone sent you a quip, something about challenging people to spend a day in their skin, THEN give advice about how to "just" buck up and fix it. People who don't have it just don't "get" it.

Like you, I depend HEAVILY on my pets. I moved cross-country 3 times in 2 years and I jettisoned heirlooms in order to bring my pets. I'm sure I couldn't make it without them.

Please write anytime, tell me your story, vent, etc. I have zero friends nearby, other than my fiance (and there's so much I don't tell him! :/)

Thanks again and hugs to you, too!

That sucks about the diary mishap. I understand that feeling. I did the same thing the other day, and got so frustrated, went looking for it and everything. But, I noticed today when I went to look at my diary that it showed somebody else's name in the box at the top of the webpage, even tho it was showing me my own diary. You might check that when you go to your diary next time, just to make sure you're there...may just be some weird glitch on the website? IDK! Sucks, huh? smilies/sad.gif

This entry, tho short, sounds very much like my state of mind as of late! I really feel you! *hugs* smilies/smiley.gif

Oh, and I meant to add (my memory sucks!), that by the time you have to go re-write something, the worst part is, you've already forgotten it! smilies/tongue.gif By then, it's almost pointless! smilies/cry.gif
