I'm okay with just being one of your internet friends   ^-^


seriously, that does suck, but I'll be optimistic here, something I usually don't feel myself about life, and say you'll likely be a better person in the long run for it: adversity is good for making us grow as people.  Right?   That usually proves true i think. 


but if you're gonna stay living at yours sister's house for awhile, paint over the giant hippie symbols in the basement or photograph your customs elsewhere   ;D

Well Spud, as Ranking Officer of this here vessel, I am ordering you to take a couple days off and get your school work done.  We're not going anywhere, and even if we did, you'd be coming with us!  I'm sorry to hear about you and Dawn, and there isn't anything anyone's going to say that'll make it better.  If I were to give any kind of advice, it's that pain is only temporary: Eventually, it all goes away.  Just let us know if there's anything we can do for ya!

Pat is so right about time making the pain go away. I wish there was something I could write that might make things a bit better, but know it won't. I hope you can use this place to get some support and forget, if even for just a bit, the daggone way the world chews us up and spits us out every once in awhile. Don't worry, get back on the Walker, and the time will take care of itself.

Devin,


Dawn seemed like a very nice girl and you guys had some good times, and you are after all, a pretty decent sort of fellow, so take a little time, get yourself back under an even keel and get that school work done.

And watch the pain meds, you don't want a temp situation developing into a longer issue.

Do what I did last time I was a little down, find a huge project to take your mind off it, school should be a priority.

I fixed up an old junker terrordrome, its now home to all my 25th cobras and ST6 sanctions, it also sits across the proverbial street from the joe command center, lol.

lol I didn't mean my pain meds.....  I used to be on anti-depressants, that was what I was talking about, but that's another story entirely.

thanks for the support guys, I'll be allright.  I'd rather take a week off of school instead of off of my hobbies... school has just been adding more and more stress to everything!  oh well, that's life I guess.

Well if the meds help, I say go back and see your doc, see what he can do for ya.  I'm pretty anti pharm most days, but for some, the help is noticable.

I am usually anti drugs too... but I do notice a significant difference in my world view when I am on and off of my antidepressants...

I take cymbalta, it's advertised alot on tv so I'm sure yall have heard of it...

it's the only drug that worked for me back in high school... I stayed on it diligently untill 4 months ago when my back started giving me probs.  I didn't want to take the anti-depressants on top of all the pain killers.  The docs said it would be ok but I've mixed drugs before and it wasn't a good outcome....

so I've been off my meds for months now... and feel more stressed than usual.  But I don't know if that's a result of recent life events or my medication....

in all honesty the hightened stress and moodiness that I have while NOT on the meds probably led to the problems dawn and I have had....  and resulted in the situation I'm in now....

no no now

don't blame the medication or lack of it


that definitely wasn't THE problem or the catalyst for the events.  not being on them might have made the situation more fragile, maybe, but there's no way it was the entire root of the probelm.  maybe one symptom of it.
