> First of all I just wanted to say, antibiotics ALWAYS make me very noticeably depressed. So you may want to take that under consideration.
****yes - thx - I am keeping that in mind. I really noticed at the Pinery, when taking the 3 days of Cipro from the walk-in clinic that it affected my mood.***

> Secondly, its not whining, its venting and sharing with friends who understand where you're coming from. I write here not only for those things, but because writing it out is a catharsis of some sort for me. For some reason I don't get the same feeling from just journaling, I need to be writing TO somebody. I guess I need that support, just someone to say, "I understand", "I would have done the same thing", or even, "maybe you should rethink this".*****Thx!! Yes - it helps me also to tell someone - either verbally or here.***
> As for your son, I can't even imagine how bad it would be to know he's living on the streets. I mean, you can understand the thought process of: don't be a crutch, don't be an enabler, he has to find out the hard way. But still, its your kid! You'd have to be a robot or something not to be freaked out about it.
*******Yeah. You're right. **
> I'm really glad your husband was understanding about your feelings. That should make a big difference for you. And making that chart sounds like a fantastic idea. I have something tangible to refer to when my mind gets all cluttered and confused.
*******Yes; and I'm really glad that I spoke up & said that I simply can't do it. For me, speaking up is hard. Especially if I think the other person might get upset or teed off or whatEVER! :-)
We'll probably do the chart tomorrow.******> >It makes me feel like I don't want to do this 'life' thing.
> I've been experiencing the same thing lately. It sucks. I guess all you can do is keep on trucking. I'll hang in there if you will.
