Hello Cloudy Damit,

I posted a letter in this thread about what happened to me not too long ago. No, its not all the scars on my head, thats a different story.

Look back to see "what occurred after my breakdown". Ask your friends, some family member, a crisis center, mental health clinic for help. There is someone out there that cares about what you are going through, other than those of us on this forum. We can only make suggestions, or tell what we did to improve on mental well being. We did it, tell me you can, too. Tell me! Tell me!

"He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds."

You came here looking for something, don't give up!!

YOU!

Alright, I'm saying its time to start and make a change. Please go to the joke forum and read a couple of funnies. If it look like its gonna be detrimental, move on to the next. I started to get a little down, just a little, and I decided to take a walk. It started to rain, so I waited a little, in the meantime there was a mosquito fest goin on my skinny white legs. It finally lightened up a bit and I went ahead and did a couple of laps around the block. Got back it the house, cleaned up the mosquito mess with witch hazel. Done. Feel good!

Have a laugh! (:~D}

Let's look at this thing as the glass half full.

Well let's see..... 2 hit Lovie's house, we'll call that completions. Three went over, throwaways. 2 went sideways, pitchouts to rb. Three on the ground, to kill the clock in the hurry up offense.

Not bad, Grossman. At least there weren't any interceptions that night.

I don't know. You have to take the bad with the good. I expect to see him turn it around. He is sound in his approach and has good ethics. Sometimes there it takes more than good coaching to win, like heart and smarts, and that has got to come from the players.

Hi Peachy and Becca,

I also belong to a 12 step group. There are many 12 step groups out there today. Some deal with drinking and others deal with drugs, while others deal with emotions. Think about it.

I was staying with a friend of mine after my ex-wife (now) ask me to find somewhere to leave the house. A couple of months later, I was dismissed from my job. The reason given was that I was struggling. The next day, I woke up feeling grogy from the medication I took to sleep the night before. I went into kitchen to pour a bowl of cereal, but I spilled the milk as I poured it. I lost all control of my emotions and they came flooding out in a torrent of anger, self-hate, blaming everyone, cursing everyone at the top of my lungs. My friend had just left for on a trip, so there was no one there to calm me. After about fifteen minutes of this tirade, the police appeared outside. I believe the neighbors called them. I called my then wife and told her I had gone overboard. I ran down for my machete and told her I was going out there to confront the police with it. Not a good idea. She begged me not to do it, that it would hurt everyone that knew me and loved me. My kids, sibs, parents, friends and yes her. I hung up on her, ran down stairs and coward in a corner in the basement. I called my step-son from my first marriage. He is a police officer. He said that if I went out there with the machete, it would be over and it would not be pretty. He told me it would hurt him deeply and basically said the same things be then wife had told me. He intervened on my behalf, calling the officer directly from his suburban office to the patrol cars. I told him I would only come out it my wife came and got me out. She showed up shortly, and was able to got to the door, where I handed the phone to her through the mail slot and my son, still on the phone with me, told the police I was giving up and to not use unnecessary force. I layed down, but they asked me to get up, that they were to help me. After some conversation with my wife and the police I was transported to a hospital for mental evaulation and admitted to a psychiatric facility. I received treatment, including shock. While in the facilities, I had people from all areas of my life calling me with there concern for my well being. People from other cities and states. My mom, dad, sisters, friends, co-workers and yes the minister of the little church that I don't even regularly attend. All of them have stepped up beyond any imaginable idea to do what they could do to help me. I had visitors eveynight, a friend allowed me and my daughter to stay at his house, so it would not be a long drive to the after care treatment I needed. Unbelieveable I say!!! I thought my life was over, lost my wife, kids, job, self respect. However, those that care about did not lose their respect and love for me and wanted me to stick around.

Am I the one to say, "NO" you don't understand, or is it me, I, that didn't understand how much I mean to all of them.
I love my kids dearly, I could not and will not do this to them again. With the support I have recieved, it is now my responsiblity to do all I can within my power and God's will to help myself improve my mental health as well as personal situation. The picture you see of me was taken in front of my parents house, 1000 miles from home. I came here to visit after the treatment was done. I plan to go home and pick up the wreckage of the life I once thought would be mine. I will have help, there will be friends and loved ones to help me put it back together. Although, they will be there to help, my good friend email the other day and said, "We are glad your getting better and we will be there to help, but gotta meet us half-way.
No more excuses for me, even though I knew my depression stems from a chemical imbalance, I don't need to give IT any help.
I intend to help myself and when I struggle there those that will pick up the shovel dig a little, too, if I ask them.
After all, I would do them, and that tends to give a lift, too.

Don't suffer alone. Get help, call a good friend, sib, parent, or even a help hotline. I have and hope springs anew. Look I'm on a online dating service and that is certainly new for me.

Easy does it, but do it!

For those who are unsure, this weekend's game against USC will be tough. ND will need to get the turnover edge to win.
GO BEARS!!
