Hey, I enjoyed this thread. I just need a definition of what an "emotional illness" is ? I'm in love with both of my favorite Psychiatrists - ha - but I've never met one one of them. He's here ->...
O.K., after reading all of your sweet memories I feel sorta dumb telling you about one of my favorite memories of my pre-school and after days. I'd sit outside on the step and set-up a bug hospital....
Hey Lyn {waving} I emailed ya. Hope ya get it. New Server so I'm still getting the hang of it. BTW- you'll get an email from my ISP saying your email is being held by the Spam-thing ... disregard...
Hi again Chris, I'm only responding because your symptoms are so much of what I have. The only thing I can tell ya from 5 years of this junk is, REST. If your body pain is alleviated by reclining...
Hia Chris, Believe it or not, I have the same problem. If you have good health insurance and an understanding Dr., you could request a prescription for Midrin. If it's stress, that's the safest...
[b]Hey Lyn, I'm writing this off line cuz it's easier with/for me. [2][b] [2][b]Hey, did I tell you that "hey" means "HI" down yonder here ? [2][b] [2][b]Anyhow ~ [i]HEY LYN !!!! {Waving and Smiling...

Hia Lyn, How on earth are you ? I just read about how ya broke yer foot with cake ... that's different - but nothing that I haven't come near doing enough times. I JUST got my computer fixed this...
Janetlee, I don't know anything about changing meds cuz I've been on just the xanax since nothing else works for me, for many years now. But I just wanted to say, I'll be praying with you for wisdom...
What a totally Unselfish thing for your Mother to do. Imagine the gratitude these folks are feeling as they think of your Mom always now with each new day for them. I know your Mom sees them from...
Dear Lyn, I understand about Mother's Day. I'm just grateful you have your Cait. When my daughter found me, I was still grieving the loss of my mom, and having a daughter sure helped me get through...
Hia Lyn, wanted to come over here to see how things are 'really' going. sigh. My heart's going out to you and your Dad. My Dad was always the type that no one Ever saw sad or mad or complain, but...
Hi Chris, don't despair. I have friends with CFS that have gotten very very good results from CFS Literate Dr.s. You can normally find one by contacting a Support Group in your area. Two sites to...
Hi Sara. Sorry to hear of all your health struggles. These multi-symptom things are a challenge. I'd have to say, the best way is to find a support group in your area and they can tell you where the...
Ah, you did it Dimple. I loved it before and I love it still. Ya just gotta post it one more time on Anxiety and then this frog will have done it's job. Thanks ! ...

Hia nightelf, The best thing you can do that I know of, is to find a CFS support group in your area by doing a Search on Google or some Search engine that you use. Once you contact someone from...
(((((((LYN))))))) Lyn, I'm so sorry that I'm just now reading all of this, from a hint you gave on the Anxiety board. I'm so sorry. Are you alright ? My heart is breaking for you. Nothing is harder...
Poor Frog, my heart went out to you here. Medication can definitely do this to a person. He may become totally negligent of the fact that he has a bad back and experience all sorts of mood swings....
Chantry, you've got it. Prayer is all I have to do anymore and Post and they're both an honor and a privilege. Will be keeping your April 6th day in mind and all. And for your two ladies there. God...
OMG is right !!! I copied this whole article to my files because News articles dissappear quickly sometimes, especially after enough hits and pressure from the indited company. I would copy this, not...
Wow Dimple, this was so good it gave me goose bumplies. Thank you. This is one that I think you should SPAM the whole Forum with . Ha, seriously though, Would you mind posting this on the Anxiety...
Hope, I'm sorry you now have CHF. That really does stink. I don't think it's anything to be "happy" about, that's for sure. Any one of these disabling diseases will put you down until we find a way...
Hia Ellie, Thank you friend for posting to me. I finally went to the Dr. yesterday (Tues) because I didn't want to go, but apparently my husband called them and the Nurse called and said to come in....
Second question ... Is it true that these things get worse if you scratch them ?...
Hey anyone, I'm severely allergic to ant bites and one will flare, swell big, burn, pimple up, ooze liquid, itch like crazy and goes through my whole blood stream until I feel whatever they put in...
Hey Ellie, I'm sorry this is going too great just yet. I wish you lived closer, so I could come help ya out and just sit a while with ya and make believe we don't hear anything ... . That would be a...
Hi Annya, Is there any chance you may have Lyme disease ... I would copy and post this thread over on the Lyme board and ask the same there about Lyme. Better to rule out Lyme first and then go from...
(My keyboard froze above, so I had to restart my computer) I was just going to close with .... 'IF' the research is by respected Professionals in Psychiatric medicine, such as these Dr.s who I quote...
Hi elisa, I'm 53 years old. I know that you have worked where these treatments were all that the institution knew or used, so that is what you are used to ....... 'that' side of treatment, so there...
Hia Tina, I felt for you so much reading your story here. I will leave you a website and you can search it to answer your own questions. I have many sites like this as I just told another dear lady...
Great post artpainter. I could really relate to this too. And when I heard how it affects the family and friends and even just others who knew the person, like artpainter just knew and liked this...
Hia jenna, hope you're hanging in there. I've been rooting for you and hoping to hear how things go along the way. Having your background, I imagine you know that PTSD can manifest as schizo also....
gaz, if you can do it ... go for it... But be sure to have good connections with your Doctor and if you have someone to talk to freely, that is a lifeline too. I was just reading a bunch of...
Hi BraveJedi, Support groups are great if we can find one in your area. Here are two sites where you could search, if you haven't seen these already....
P.S. Time to change your signature ? (o: }...
So glad for you getting a DX Nikki. Doesn't that feel GOOOOOOD. I remember waiting and waiting to find out what on earth was wrong with me and then the relief I felt to have them put a name to it....
Naw Vallie, you're not a downer at all. You're just 'sucked in' right now. I was there this last Fall - Big Time. Didn't want anti-depressants. Wanted to try to dig my way out some how with any other...
Hia Vallie, I'm glad you told me that about SO's Forum. I don't care for that type of atmosphere. Have seen too much of that on all sorts of Forums already, when I was searching for a good one....
Hey Vallie, So I've found another SO fan. That's so neat. You made me laugh with the Iyanla quote. Funny, as much as I love her, I say, "Yeah right, BE a great day ?" I understand what she means, but...
Oh Lyn, how hard that is to go through. I can't even imagine. Never had a real Mom, but had woman in my life who were like Moms to me. Will she take Instant Breakfast or milk shakes ? I don't like...
They sure do care here H. When one of us "loses faith", as you say, the rest of us can paddle at least that boat for you for a while. I'd be glad to pray things start looking up for you. That's the...
Well, I can relate to the physical things. I only put those two below in my sig, because both of those have about 20 things that come with them and I figured, those who know what those two are, know...
Well, I just posted on the a/p post, "Have been there - keep looking up" and as you'll see by my post ... I wasn't sure which direction to look this morning. /community/emoticons/mad.gif Ha !!! Then,...
Hiya bluepixie, My daughter is in here 30's too. I typed a whole big reply to ya and guess what ... I pushed "esc" instead of a "~" and the whole thing disappeared. Oh my. Oh well, good finger...
bluepixie, were your parents both alcoholics when you were little and growing up and all ? Gosh, I wondered that, because that is when our 'foundation for security' is formed. My heart goes out to...
The research shows that genetics does not necessitate depression. It may predispose you to it, but attitude and outlook outweighs any "history of" in one's family. Pharmaceutical companies and most...
Ali, it's a pleasure to meet you and an honor. I've met dog people who've come into the Nursing Home where I used to work, and I've seen that magic that you're talking about . I would love to see...
Hia PhotoHouseSophMouse, (o: } Don't mind me, I just confuse easily. Doesn't take much at all. I was just reading the advise you gave a new comer and it was Fantastic. A nice long post but I forget...
Foreign, is it just my imagination, or is the CFS board the least trafficed ? I thought that may be because we're all just TOO TIRED to come post. Ho-Ho ! /o: } :) You can tell I'm in the Quick Reply...
