MDJunction to me

carmen33"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.

I try so hard to not cry~

I really hate appearing weak.

Its always been a downfall

of mine..

But there are days...

If I were a cryer~

I would cry my days away..

Lisa,

I used to think the same way.

I used to think that crying was a sign of being weak.

It is not being weak. It is being human.

It is okay to cry. It is healthy to cry....it is a release.

You are such a good person. Crying is no different than laughing.

Just a different emotion. Think about it. Wink

Lisa, Princess is so right. It is okay to cry. Nothing to be ashamed of, ever. But, crying aloneis the lonliest thing in the world, so let us cry with you, and then when you feel better, we can smile and laugh with you too. Smile

warm fuzzy hugs,

Karen

i hate to cry in front of people ~ don't know why exactly. i'm sure there's some deep, deep psychological reason!!!

don't see it as a weakness though ~ always feel so much better afterwards.

and karen's right about sharing all our emotions here ~ a safe,warm, accepting place.

love you guys bunches!!!!
