Helen, Susan, TOTALLY understand about the sleep thing
Zowie*snuggles* my uniform at work is also short sleeved... I know this won't work for everyone and I am not saying that it's easy... What I do is just distance myself from my cuts/scars... I don't think about them... I can even go so far as to notice them out of the corner of my eye but not even acknowledge what they are or that they're mine (weird I know, but sometimes disociation rocks)... And when people ask what happened to my arm I say 'Nothing', 'A lot of things' or 'I did'... And if they keep pushing I just flat out tell them... Shuts them up faster than anything. But like I said, that won't work for everyone. *snuggles* Good luck sweetie.
I'm selfish, impatient, and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I'm out of control, and at times hard to handle, but if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.

Zowie, there is also the kind of wise crack answer that they can't argue with, like a fight with a rose bush. Attacked by a tiger that got loose from the zoo, shark bite.
How is everyone else today. Ally dear, how are you?
I'm off to get my blood pressure meds, lunch on my way to a meeting and then grocery shopping on the way home. I have been wanting hot buttered toast since we got home.
Hugs all
My husband is my best friend.
In forgiving others, we are not exonerating them. They may not deserve exoneration. Rather, in forgiving others we are giving up our anger over the fact that what happened is not what "should" have happened or that our life is not the way it "should" have been.
Thanks guys. I'll try detachting myself from them, that's a good idea that might work for me.
I still feel pretty bad, starting to regret leaving the hospital. I can't even tell anyone because they'll scorn me for leaving hospital.
I just ran around town doing some errands... Got a new drivers licence, some champagne, paid the bills I had left for uni (so I can actually get my diploma), found out that I don't have enough to pay my other bills ... Went to the apartment I was trying to get into and learned I was approved *phew*... And now I'm home to do some packing and some resting... I am EXHAUSTED.
*hugs everyone*

Hey. Not the best of times but hey, I'm alive.
Get some rest hun, and is there any way of getting the money you need?
*hugs zowie* if you wanna be back in hospital then try your best to get the help you need hun, and if they scorn you then ignore them cos they're not worth your upset.
blondiebear sounds like a good day =) toast is a random craving...
I love toast hehe :) Well I have 17, but I'm getting rid of one pair, so 16

Loneliness with or without people, a feeling that comes from inside
Unable to show your true feelings, Unaware of the things that you hide
A life built around a pretending, feeling things that you think you should feel
A life unaware of it’s ending – is there a chance it could ever turn real?

No too bad actually - but it's been a very tough few days (quite a few days) - I don't think I have met you yet - - look forward to getting to know you.

Sorry... I have nothing to offer at the moment... I don't know what happened... I was fine... really was, but recently? I don't know which way is up anymore... it scares me... I just... I wish everything could go back to how it used to be... how it was before I first cut... before all the bad stuff happened... before... before I pushed everyone away... before everything... *sigh* sorry. I'll go and hide again now.

hey Hana,
Sorry you are feeling so down at the moment. You dont have to hide though you can come out and chat about anything you want or need to - might not have the answers for you but I do have a good pair of listening ears and still plenty of hugs left

Thanks guys. There's nothing to talk about though... I don't know what happened, I don't know why I feel like I do, it's stupid though... I feel rubbish, but I don't know why, maybe I'm just being stupid... yeah, that's probably all it is. Not knowing why just brings me down further though... *shrug* I dunno. :s

Hana, dont be hard on yourself just coz you dont know the reason - that happens to everyone and it can happen at the flick of a switch. You just need to give yourself a bit of time and be nice to yourself. It could just be a hormonal thing or anything - but just remember we are here if you need us - and if you want to cha about anything - even the weather - wow it was hot today.
Ku, i think you joined Vets just as i left for a few days. Hope you find RYL as amazingly supportive as I do - they really are a fantastic group of people
