it has been suggested to me that I stay off here for awhile. I'm sorry to have included you all in something I'm supposed to go through alone.

Just because we are Christians and we know that all things work to God's glory doesn't mean we're supposed to suffer in silence.

Don't let anyone tell you that you shouldn't be here, Seajoy. You have as much right as anyone else to be here, and it doesn't matter whether you are sad, happy, alone, or whatever emotion you happen to be feeling at the time.

I would hate to think that this place isn't a haven for those in need of a hug or a comforting word.

I haven't been here long, but as far as I have seen, I don't think you need to worry about leaving. Maybe whoever said that was in a bad mood that day. I don't know. I just know that the more I worry, the more stressed out I get, and the more stressed out I get, the more my health declines. (not to mention the stress it puts on my family) I try to live each day the best I can, and if I have any questions or problems, I talk to God. My husband and I will pray for you.

Hope

Seajoy, only you can know if being here helps you or not. It's a choice that only you can make.

I know that taking a hiatus can be healthy (taken a few myself when I need them!), but when support is needed, this is a great place to get some! :)

Don't worry Hope (love the name, by the way, it is one we are considering for our next child, due in Feb.) I think it was me that defamed them, and I have since removed the line that did so.

Seajoy,

Just so you know, Hope and I are here and we are more than happy to pray for you. It is my earnest prayer that God will guide you through this. Just remember, it is when we are at our lowest points and we feel like we have been abandoned that God is carrying us.

Its a good thing to be able to talk to people when you are depressed and being able to let it all out.
Hope you get better soon and we all love you here. God bless you.

I'm out of the hospital now. I'm doing ok....long way to go yet.

Oh thank you Lord for prayers answered so far! You are the Great Physician, the Healer and Comforter of our souls. Be with Angie as she travels this road. Wrap your loving arms around her and guide her to a healthy state of being.

In the name of our dear Lord, Jesus Christ,

Amen:crosseo:

Kae

Seajoy,
I am so sorry that I have not been around lately. My internet service forced me to take my own haitus, it's been sporadic at best, but now seems to be on much more than off.

I am sorry that you have had such a rough time of it. I pray that they have gotten your meds straightened out now.

You know you are always in my prayers. I am praying that you feel stronger soon.

Thanks so much Quilty. :hug:
Today has been good so far. I take it one moment at a time.
It seems they have gotten my meds straightened out. The new one they had tried for my fibro and depression, had very bad side effects for me. I had been on it since January, and kept hoping to feel better, but they kept increasing it, and I just kept getting worse.

I praise the Lord for all the days I do well, and today I'm doing the best I have in weeks. :amen:

Thanks so much for everyone's prayers. They are needed and appreciated grately.
