    Hi karrie!:hello:
    How are you hun? Ol' Tiffster's trying to play catch up.:rolleyes:
    quote=Karrie
    I do enjoy spending time alone. I've lived on my own for over 10 years now and am very independent and hate relying on people. When I am well it's great having people around me though.
    I'm pleased about that hun. Let people stay around angel - that way, they'll be there when you need them.;) Plus you still get to enjoy them when you feel well.

    Aww thank you for the compliment. I am !!!!!! at giving advise and wonder if I am saying the right things sometimes. I always doubt myself.
    Never doubt yourself hun - there are plenty of other people around to do that for us. You do give good advice. It's usually easier to give it out than ask for it, as others have said.

    Paris is appealing against her conviction so I have no doubt she will get away with it :eek:
    Oh what has the silly mare gone and done now?! :rolleyes: :D

    No I don't you asking at all - I am 40.
    I'm an even smaller 42!:rotfl:

    All this talk of food is making me hungrey too. I might just do some toms on toast. Do you eat when you are ill? I don't. I am terrible.
    Now karrie - I have to warn you hun. There was the Great Blue Smartie Breakout not so long ago on the thread. We don't like to talk of it. Heed my words angel - be careful hun - tomatoes aren't as innocent as they seem!:eek: :D

    How are you feeling RBK? I am watching Vernon while posting and I'm feeling a whole lot better :D/quote
    I don't think I'd be able to reach him!:rotfl:
    Have to think of someone more my height...hmmm...oh help - I can only think of Ronnie Corbett!:eek: yuck.gif
    Take care angel.hug.gif
    Much Love,

    Hi Juno

    Glad to hear you are getting somewhere. How do you feel about it all?
    I'm scared! For ages I thought I just had normal depression, but now they're saying I've probably got something else.

    At least you are getting support and help. Have you read up on bi-polar?

    I don't know much about it but there was thread on here somewhere where you might find advise through other people experiences.

    ahhh found it - blimey I'm clever today.

    You might have read it but if you haven't hope it helps even it's a little bit.

    Hi dmg!:hello:
    Glad you came back hun.:T

    quote=dmg24Evening,
    Just to say a big thank you for your support after last night.
    Aren't they wonderful guys?:T :A

    Have actually had a good day today (possibly because I slept through most of it). Talked through what was said last night with a friend, and now have just put it to the back of my mind. Am going to try to go out again next week, but this time with a group of male friends, so if anybody wants to be nasty to me they'll have them to deal with!
    Atta girl!:j I can just imagine you out with your posse angel!:cool: I hope you have a great time hun. There are some really nice people out there.;)

    Didn't make it outside today, but am going to try tomorrow.
    I'm recovering from agoraphobia dmg. Do you have a similar issue hun? Sorry for prying. You're trying anyway hun, whatever the reason is - and that's great!;)

    On Tuesday I should be at uni. Have been off for three weeks now and think if I am off for much longer they will ask me to leave, even though they knew I was poorly before I started the course. Have spent the past few days worrying myself silly as to what I will do if I have to leave, will just have to deal with it when it happens.
    Lots of love to everyone x/quote
    There are a few members of the family on here that have been in this position hun. I hope when you go in, you can speak with your Tutor and find out the various options and then have a sympathetic response. I hope it all goes well sweetie. Try not to worry until it happens hun -
    fear of the unknown is terrible and we can really torment ourselves. Generally speaking, there are always choices angel. Good luck.hug.gif
    Much Love,
    Tiff xxx
