Pattij I'm so sorry that you have joined us here, this is the last place we all wanted to be. Please know you are not alone, many of us have been where you are right now. Keep breathing and be good to yourself. It's okay to cry, I cried so much I'm not sure how I still had any tears left. I couldn't eat or sleep, I was a mess, I pretty much tried to avoid people because I couldn't take all of the looks of pity. You will get through this, but it will take time. Take it one day at a time, or one minute, or one second, whatever it takes. ((Hugs))

pattij-- you are definitely not alone, and it sucks that you've having another go-around with this stupid BC crap. We're all here to listen. We have all been in that deep dark hole before, but just remember you can't let this @#$% take any more from you than it already has. For me, I finally understood those depression commercials you see where there's that cloud hanging over your head and it took a good long time for me to shake it off and learn to live my life happy again. One step at a time, and you will beat this thing. (MORE HUGS)!

Hi honey, So sorry. You did come to the right place here. The women are great. And, we are here for you. Yes, it is sometimes hard to talk to certain people without crying. Some people do not understand, and, they tend to be stand offish. Its a normal feeling what your going through. I felt the same way. Remember this, Keep strong. Its hard, but, you have too. And, keep your Faith. Please know you are not alone through this. Please, let me know how your feeling honey. I will keep checking back. Bye now.
