johnagent1911 Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 I would but she is so far away... I mean this is the girl I really care about and god only knows how much she means to me. However, I don't think she would want this either. Who knows... Link to comment
PAdreamer Posted November 22, 2004 Author Share Posted November 22, 2004 Well that's a great point, John. I'm not saying that YOU are doing this, but some people do it. Don't avoid a possible connection out of fear that the person you're into will be against it. Talk about it, and make sure that you know what each of you wants. Link to comment
johnagent1911 Posted November 29, 2004 Share Posted November 29, 2004 Classes are sucking... And I need change. I'm slowly dying right now. Anyone else getting this? Link to comment
Caldus Posted November 29, 2004 Share Posted November 29, 2004 Hang in there. I'm approaching finals week myself. Almost done with the semester... Link to comment
PAdreamer Posted November 30, 2004 Author Share Posted November 30, 2004 I'm not even in school and I'm getting that. Actually things aren't so bad right now. Holiday stresses and such. *shrug* Link to comment
Outlaw2747 Posted November 30, 2004 Share Posted November 30, 2004 I'm not celebrating anything this year. Mainly because I really don't care and the fact I am halfway accross the world from my family and such. Plus I just lost interest. I also don't have anyone to spend these times with so frankly it is all good from here. All of you people who have someone to snuggle to right now, better cherish that. Link to comment
frail Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 Hey guys. Oh yeah classes are getting on my last nerve. But only 2 more weeks or so. We'll make it and it'll feel oh so good when it's over. OH SO GOOD!!! Link to comment
PAdreamer Posted December 2, 2004 Author Share Posted December 2, 2004 LOL! Man I remember when I felt that way about high school. Now I know that I'd give up so much if I could go back to those easy days! Link to comment
Caldus Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 Yeah this week is really sucking a lot. Tremendous work load. Just gotta suck it up and work hard. Link to comment

I also don't have anyone to spend these times with so frankly it is all good from here. All of you people who have someone to snuggle to right now, better cherish that. I'm out of school and getting started w/my career but I'm basically far away from family now too not to mention alone and w/no one of my own to snuggle with. Moved from NC to OK earlier this year. Have both sisters 7hrs away by car but that's still roughly far. And parents are 23hrs away by car and all my college friends back in NC are still 16hrs away. Needless to say I've been out here 6-7mo and am fairly lonely myself. Thankfully I'll get to see the whole family for Christmas or I'd go crazy. Hang in there everyone the best you can.

PAdreamer Posted December 2, 2004 Author Share Posted December 2, 2004 Ah! that's it! Hahaha! Why didn't I think of it! Not depressed, but bi-polar! No wonder the original meds weren't working! Sorry Shinobie. Hopefully now you'll start to feel better! I feel stupid for not thinking of that in the first place! Link to comment
Shinobie Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 Nah dont feel stupid because i didnt even notice that i had depression in the first place even when i saw those commercials.Its just sort of came on to me and to think of bi-polar that struck me hard. Link to comment
PAdreamer Posted December 3, 2004 Author Share Posted December 3, 2004 The good thing is that it's treatable. But don't forget that the medication doesn't work alone. You have to give it 110% to get better! As for me, no matter how many times I treat my PHYSICAL conditions, they keep coming back! LOL! I have to go to the doctor tomorrow... I don't like my doctor... ugh! Link to comment

As for me, no matter how many times I treat my PHYSICAL conditions, they keep coming back! LOL! I have to go to the doctor tomorrow... I don't like my doctor... ugh! Ah yes, meds. I know that they're not the sole sloution to a problem but I think that they can help. When it comes to me getting over my depression and shyness and etc, etc... (the list is long) I find that I've hit a brick wall and I may need a little something to give me the boost I need to get back on track. I just made an appointment with my family doctor yesterday for Dec. 13th. Hopefully he can help me and if not maybe he can recommend a specialist who can. I don't know if he'll be able to perscribe anything since he's a general physician and not a psychiatrist/psycologist. (I can never remember which term is which) Hopefully he can start me off on something like a mild anti-depressant (do they make anti-shyness pills too? lol) or something and if that doesn't work maybe try something stronger or refer me to a specialist to go on from there. I dunno. I've come to the end of what I feel I can do on my own and this may be time for me to get professional help. I'm a little nervous and I feel like this is a first step on a long journey. I just hope the doctors can help me. If not then there may be no hope for me at all. Link to comment
PAdreamer Posted December 3, 2004 Author Share Posted December 3, 2004 Perhaps your shyness is caused by anxiety. They have meds for that. I don;t think your doctor can persbribe anything but he can definitely get you the referral to a specialist. Link to comment
Pyralis Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 Perhaps your shyness is caused by anxiety. They have meds for that. I'm pretty sure that my shyness is due to social anxeity. (whatever's causing it, I'm sure I have a lot of it. I'm hoping that they can perscribe something for that too. I don;t think your doctor can persbribe anything but he can definitely get you the referral to a specialist. Yeah, I kind of figured that. Oh well, at least it's a first step to getting the help that I need. Link to comment
johnagent1911 Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 My depression has gone down a lot... I feel thankful too. =) . Link to comment
frail Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 Pyralis, Good Luck on your road to medical treatment. I hope it helps you out alot. Someone in here, i think PADreamer, said you have to give it your 110% to get better. She's right. I Think that's what caused me to fail, i didn't try hard enough. So DON'T LET THAT HAPPEN!!! Over the summer i saw a psychologist for the first time and then eventually was put on some meds but it didn't turn out to well. I didn't like my therapist and i got every single side-effect the pill box listed, which caused me to spend many days in bed. And it kinda scared me away, but now here i am back to the way things used to be. A big ol ball of joy, sarcastically speaking. If you don't like your therapist, get a new one. If the meds don't work, try different ones. Hopefully you'll find out what works for you sooner then later. John, i'm happy to here things are much better Link to comment
PAdreamer Posted December 4, 2004 Author Share Posted December 4, 2004 To be honest, I went through a long list of therapists before I found the right one. So don't give up if your first attempts aren't great. And if your first meds don't work for you, your therapist should be trying something different until they find the right one. If they aren't doing this, talk to them. Link to comment
