*cuddles both Hannah and Hels*

I wish I knew... I might, I probably will, but do I really want an answer? or would no answer at all be even worse? :-S

*hides* :(

wildly insane 23-05-2010 12:22 AM

*hugs April* I think not knowing is worse, but that's just me

*hugs Helen* glad you were having a good time earlier, sorry to hear things are hard now *cuddles*

gosh it's warm, too scared to sleep with the window open though as we've had 4 attempted/actual break ins since I moved in, I know chances are slim that somebody's going to climb up my wall but still

sorry guys so want to give support, it's there for everybody but my brain is frazzled and clocked off, I aint no use to anyone, gonna call it a night, useless I know, sorry

leaves hugs for everybody wanting them

MammaMia 23-05-2010 01:13 AM

I can't really tell you what's been going on tonight, as my best friend wouldn't be too happy with me. But I've been very worried sick about her & her daughter today. Then some **** drama kicked off, nearly phoned to get her help, but she'd finally reached the hospital, so I didn't. Then I threw up a tiny bit, still feel like going to be properly sick & having an epic panic attack :'( It was horrible :'(

Where is all this going to end? =( *curls up, rocks an cries*

Kahlia1981 23-05-2010 01:25 AM

*huggles/waves at everyone*

Tired and cold and really not feeling good. So sick of everything. Just want to disappear. Would like to just burst into tears. Feeling like a really bad person. :crying:

My friend has started paying back the money for the monitor. I feel bad about it. :crying:

*disappears into a dark corner, under a pile of duvets to cry*

SoMuchMore 23-05-2010 02:17 AM

*cuddles helen* I'm not religious at all but i will keep you and your friends in my thoughts. I hope that you are alright. Its okay that you cant tell us about everything here.

*hugs april* Love, you are not a fail or an epic waste of time. I always read your venting spot so if u need to talk to someone u can always PM me, i'm usually pretty quick to reply so.. yea. Just offering :-)

*cuddles kahlia* you are not a bad person hun.

*hugs hannah* o wow, that sucks about the break ins. I would probably be super nervous too. Sorry your brain is feeling fried. Hope you managed to get some sleep.

*hugs everyone else*

I am not doing well at all right now... I would explain more, but i dont know if i can formulate a coherent wording right now *hides in the corner*

MammaMia 23-05-2010 02:50 AM

risenfromperdition 23-05-2010 06:27 AM

how're you doin? <3

SoMuchMore 23-05-2010 06:34 AM

... not great. Having a hard time handling being back in my hometown and not sleeping well b/c of dreams/nightmares. o well i guess.

How about u?
*hugs*

risenfromperdition 23-05-2010 06:40 AM

*cuddles* here if you want.
eh same as before tbh.

SoMuchMore 23-05-2010 07:17 AM

*hugs* thanks hun. im here for you too if u need someone. Sorry u arent feeling any better, its good that you're being honest though. So many times in here we fall into the "im fine" pattern...

Kahlia1981 23-05-2010 08:01 AM

*huggles/waves at everyone*

Laura: Just wanted to say I like the line in your signature: "I won't give up if you don't give up".

Sorry I can't offer anyone much in the way of support. All I can offer anybody is *hugs* for those who can accept them, and my support in whatever way it can be accepted. Oh, and a listening ear for all of you.

Please never feel that you can't say something because you've said it before, or because it would be winging (sp?). Personally I'd rather hear the truth, then silence on a thousand wires. If I can hear the truth, then maybe I can offer some words of solace, or perhaps a different outlook - maybe just some words to let you know that I've been there. But if I hear nothing, then I don't know how things are truly affecting you. We all have our story to tell. Take heed from the birds in the forest and allow your story to be told.

Sorry, I'll get off my soap-box. Really sorry. :crying:

risenfromperdition 23-05-2010 08:09 AM

thanks both of you <3

i just always feel like other people have it worse so why should *i* complain... or that people are sick of me talking :/

hows everyone? <3

CrazyHayley 23-05-2010 08:15 AM

Mornning or afternoon or evening which ever it may be to you! It's 8.10am here in the UK as I type this. Had shitty nights sleep and finally gave up, so thought I'd say hello to my fellow wardies before the **** hits the fan (apologies for my terminology, but it really does sum up what its going to be like later....)

Anyhoo, I must say I'm loving Kahlia on her soap box! No need to apologise Kahlia, I think everyone will be very happy and find some comfort and support in what you said and feel better about their future posts. *huggles kahlia*

Sorry but I've not had my morning meds as its too early, lol, so I'm not functioning at my best and can't quite figure out individual responses but I didn notice there was someone I've not met before *waves at horseridingbabe07* Hello!

*goes around ward to give each of her wardies some extra special attention just for them in a way that they feel safe with*

*toddles out to smoking shelter with lovely cuppa coffee*

ooh...fresh brewed coffee in the kitchen for those who may want some!

risenfromperdition 23-05-2010 08:21 AM

hey =] am heather lol.

mmmmm cig *sulks in corner* :P a)its 3:30 am, b)my parents arent exactly good with me smoking at all- let alone at 3:30 am :P
so yus *scowls at* lol

Kahlia1981 23-05-2010 08:38 AM

*sneaks a coffee and runs out to the smoking shelter to hug Hayley* I hope things aren't that bad hun. Fingers are crossed for you. And if the **** does hit the fan, we're here for ya.

Heather: Parents can be like that. I get a lot of anti-smoking BS from my brother - he's an ICU nurse - so I hear you on that one. Not sure if we've really been formally introduced. I'm Kahlia, in case I hadn't said. It's been kind of busy in here, and I've forgotten a lot that's been happening. Many apologies. Do you accept hugs?

It's almost "medication time". I'm getting so sick of hearing that phrase. Thankfully my psychiatrist has lowered the number of tablets but it can still be quite a struggle. Especially when I really ain't feeling too good.

Very down at the moment. Down with strong helpings of SI and suicidal urges. Why? I don't know. What am I going to do about it? I also don't know. I really just wish it all would stop.

So.damn.over.it

*leaves warm wishes and packets of support in whatever form you can accept for everyone*

CrazyHayley 23-05-2010 08:48 AM

Hello Heather - I'm thinking coffee and a fag at 3.30am probably isn't a good idea! Kahlia - I hope yours was decaff!!

I was quite anti-smoking right up until I tried my first cigerrete aged 25! But I smoked for all the reasons they tell you not to smoke...now, well sometimes yeah I smoke for the bad reasons, but mostly now its cos I've gone and got myself addicted and I've tried giving up a few times, even managed 8months once, but then something happens and I start again for the wrong reasons and then get addicted again. I thought about giving up now that I'm back on the injection as I should be able to deal with things better, but then straight away family dramas happen. Thinking about it, I'd only give up for a few months and then I'd be likely to do what I did last time Eoghan was deployed to Afghanistan. Wave goodbye to him and then walk in tears to buy a packet of fags, so I don't see the point in trying. Is that really naughty of me?! In the grand scheme of things, it probably doesn't even deserve a second thought.

Can you tell from the waffling I've had a coffee, lol!

I need to get my brain in gear as I need to get back all my phone numbers of people. My mobile phone broke completely on me yesterday all of a sudden, so I bought a new handset (girlie moment....A purple sparkly one!!) and put my sim into it, only to discover that my numbers had been stored on my handset and not on my sim. not good!! oh well, at least I've got the same number, so hopefully any numbers that I can't track down, in time people will get in contact with me!

risenfromperdition 23-05-2010 08:50 AM

yus i like hugs =]
and yeaah i'll admit thats basically why i started too [all the reasons they say not to... mostly cuz couldnt do anything ELSE self destructive *rolls eyes at self*]

*yawn*
should prolly attempt to sleep. byes =]

risenfromperdition 23-05-2010 08:52 AM

good luck with the phone haha
ive had that happen before

xxjuliexx 23-05-2010 09:10 AM

*curls up*

CrazyHayley 23-05-2010 09:18 AM

*toddles over to where Julie is curled up* How's you then me lovely? I should be getting my arse in gear for the day, but I'm dreading it so thinking of going back to bed. My partner is sleeping off his hangover, so its not like I'm being lazy or anything. Anyhoo, my coffee is wearing off now....

xxjuliexx 23-05-2010 09:30 AM

i'm....
*shrugs*

CrazyHayley 23-05-2010 09:46 AM

oh Julie...at least you didn't say the F word! We're all here to listen if you want to talk. But if not, I'll just sit with you and keep you company. Though I may fall back to sleep, so I'm not sure how much company I'll be!

xxjuliexx 23-05-2010 09:47 AM

i nearly said the F word

Pnuemonia[Blue] 23-05-2010 10:08 AM

Morning
How is everyone?

wildly insane 23-05-2010 10:33 AM

aww Julie I know exactly what it's like to just want a real life hug from somebody who really cares, is there a friend you can maybe go and see today, take your mind off things and give you a hug?

*hugs hayley* we've missed you :) hope today isn't as bad as you're thinking.

*hugs Heather* ooh I hate that with parents. A vital piece of clothing for the beach is a sarong - take 2 if you have them, one as a skirt and one round your shoulders, If you want to keep a shirt on or something just say you don't want to get burnt. I know too many good looking uber slim people at the beach - ugh. I love the beach, especially in winter when it's empty and the waves are crashing, try and ignore the people and enjoy the beauty. Don't know what to say about your parents though, they sound highly insensitive, my mum tells me to watch my weight, luckily I have a brother who tells me not to listen to her. Losing weight healthily is very difficult and also takes time, 2 pounds a week is ridiculous, please don't. If YOU really want to and I mean YOU it may be worth going to a nutritionist or dietician and getting a plan, which makes it easier to keep to and keeps it healthy as these things get so easily out of control and we don't want that at all.

*hugs Kahlia* love the soap box :) don't feel guilty about the monitor, honest, if you had the money you'd tell her not to worry about it, but you don't and it's not your fault

*hugs Laura* sorry to hear being back in your hometown isn't much fun, sleep was okay(ish) rather nervous that I'm not going to get everything done that I want to do today, want to spend it outside but too many other things to do

hello JK I'm Hannah how are you?

*cuddles April* hope WOW distracted you and things are feeling more manageable today

*hugs Helen* so sorry I wasn't around last night. How are you feeling today? Have you heard from your friend?

*hugs Emma* nervous but okay, how are you?

I really wish there were more hours in the day I have a list as long as my arm to get through today, but then if I didn't have stuff to do I'd just get bored - doh - i just want to be outside enjoying the weather, I will make sure I spend sometime outside I will

xxjuliexx 23-05-2010 10:43 AM

*waves to blue*

xxjuliexx 23-05-2010 10:51 AM

jonikd 23-05-2010 11:15 AM

*cuddles Kahlia and Laura tight and gives them a large frilly box filled with strength & support*

Hey Hannah, I'm JK, nice to meet you.

*Waves at Heather, Emma and Blue*

*sits next to Julie and hugs her gently til she's comfortable to talk to us*

*hugs Hayley tight* sorry to hear you're struggling too hun,I've missed you while I was away ;)

Kahlia, I love it when you're on your "soapbox" you are a smart, passionate woman who makes a difference here *hugs again*

I am not great, but off to sleep now. Just back from 5 days away and my reality has hit hard today. Have managed to get through the day pretty much unscathed and will see what tomorrow brings.

Hugs to you all

*wonders how Crimson, Mark, Oliver, Lindsay and Nicole are doing*
