Resigned, resolute but still in the irony,humor. In this I see hope, hold it tight. I will think of the group as I rototill today. Aha the wonders of dolomite lime. Hey Claudia, just for the hell of it…. If you get lots of sun in the apartment why don’t you try to grow one of those Giant Atlantic pumpkins?  You would be the talk of the place with your own giant pumpkin in the living room!  Hey if you gotta be nuts be creative! I will try again outside.  My best sofar is #120  best in state is over #700.  I think in NY they topped #1,000.    toad "There is only one difference between a madman and me. I am not mad."

Response:

you can blow up at me either here or email.  i know disassociation happens to deal with a situation.  hope at least in that way it will help you.  perhaps the social worker may have other options.

: follow up: : the mere thought of inpatient hospitalization is making things : *worse*.   because it would be * a lot* worse.  going to aim for : outpatient treatment and meds.  there’s a place nearby. : — : chimera:  learned a lot, a lot to learn : even marathon runners fall down. : icq #101774213
