just down
maybe this is one of the down days from being
diabetic, i don’t know. but i have been bawling most of the
day over anything and everything. i’ve been trying to
work on webpages, but my heart is just not there to do
it. i would just as soon crawl back into the bed and
stay there, but it is only 4:30pm indiana time. i have
been on vacation this week and i go back tomorrow
night, maybe that is part of it too. but i feel so bad
right now and just really sad.<br

Debbie,….being down is often happening with
diabetics. Even wonderful me, can get there
also.<br
it….you can shake it off because that is what will happen
anyway (you can’t stay down for the rest of your life,
right?) So why waist time staying down?? OR…you can
make yourself more and more down and I wonder what
that is good for? You still have to come out of it,
again why waist those days????<br
in the mirror like I do,( I have many troubles to
overcome every day) and ask yourself why you are doing
this to yourself…dia can do a very good job all by
itself, believe me.<br
such a waist of time!!!!!!<br
personal enemy and confront that enemy now. Who is
winning….YOU or that stupid enemy?????<br
I know it isn’t waist. It is WASTE. But in the
maintime you had a good laugh didn’t you?????

JohnV is right, despite the deliberate
misspellings, we have to take the “Response-ABILITY” for our
feelings and actions.<br
down in the ‘pit’ because they seem to get a charge
out of people feeling sorry for them. I for one am
not that way. <br
deal with right now, My dad’s mortality, My lack of
work, a man I cannot marry because of losing SSI and my
medical, and the diabetes responsibilities too…At the
top of these. <br
worried about my dad, At least I have a dad to worry
about.<br
HAVE a house.<br
future, But At least I have a manfriend who doesn’t give
up on me to go find someone with her own job and
medical freedoms.<br
bills, but I have dogs from my own choice. The
brown-eyed-snuggles are my kids…I can’t have any of the human type
so, hell yeah, I substituted.<br
gigs and work, but the gift of music isn’t going to go
away just because I don’t earn a fortune with
it…It’s within me already, and will always be
here.<br
to stay there. I remember my mom’s statement that
“It isn’t a disgrace to Get something, but it’s a
disgrace to KEEP it”…We were actually having one of
-THOSE- talks about sex and VD and such. She told me to
always tell her of problems and she’d help. <br
I apply that to my weight and my moods. I may gain
a few pounds, but it doesn’t stay on for long, I
get on the diet and walk instead of sitting around
feeling depressed and watching Jerry Springer and
shovelling another mouthfull in. Food -in my case- is NOT a
buddy.<br
hope with a night’s sleep and some affirming thoughts
to yourself about how good you really are will make
tomorrow a better day.<br
do go hand in hand. Biochemicals be damned, you have
anyone try to live as we do, always considering every
morsel, every activity, BG checks and Dr.s who may look
upon us as ‘no brainers’ or “encephilaticly
challanged” and talk down to us all the while….Bound to get
anyone down.<br
terminology and they don’t stand a bloody chance with me

Hi Debbie,<br
day today. Depression sometimes hits diabetics. I was
able to shake it for many years, however, about a year
ago I found that I would burst into tears at the drop
of a hat and for no reason at all. <br
immediately put me on a very low dosage of Celexa- 1/2 tablet
per day. He told me that there would be no withdrawal
if I found that I no longer needed it after a few
weeks. <br
“pill” to my diet, but I have been pleased with this. If
you find that your depression doesn’t go away…. do
talk to your doctor about it. Hugs, De
