Well ty, sweetie......just don't feel it half the time anymore. But I can honestly say I look better now than when I joined this site back in 2007. I look ten years younger than I did back then! LOL...

Honey...you are beautiful!!

if we owe just the one fine/offense for all repeats...800

if we owe for each and every repeat....at well over 15000 i'm screwed

Well sweetie, the holidays have been hard for me since I lost custody of Eileen. What really got my dad tore up was that Fay (stepmama) wanted a white Christmas sooooo bad and it started snowing Christmas night. It was mostly gone by the day of Fay's funeral tho, and that was the hardest day I've ever had. When we were leaving the cemetery I nearly fell to my knees I was so distraught. I was in a daze until then, thinking that she wasn't really gone. And when the reality of it hit me, it hit me hard.

Nice, I love it!

My dad has a few on his truck:

"And on the eighth day, God created the Marines"
"Not as mean, not as lean, but still a Marine"
"US Marines, America's 911"

Ok......who let this thread slide while i was in and out of the psych hopsital last year?????

I know I hit a level of depression during the holiday season...and I came close to attempting suicide again Christmas night. The only thing that stopped me was the fact that my dad and I found that my stepmom passed in her sleep the night I came down to see them for Christmas. It was hard as hell for me to see my dad cry like that. I didn't want to put him through that crap again.

Yeah I'm back to that too. Then I'll end right back up to letting people in my bubble and get hurt again....then I'll ask myself why the heck do I even care anymore

I hope to make this an ongoing thread. Just want to invite those are students whether still in high school or in college and dealing with mental health issues, or even if you know someone going through this to get to know each other.

I'm a student at the Art Institute of Raleigh-Durham (for now), but I'm about to transfer to Wake Technical Community College for the Spring 2011 semester. I have several MH issues myself, rapid cycling bipolar disorder being one of them.

I've found it's very tough to be a student with this stuff. We need a support group guys. C'mon and chat it up!!!!

well I'll be a monkey's uncle....hey Ken!!!! the bipolar is gettin the better of me too hon. Me and my fiance are fighting all the time and he doesn't get it that dealing with it is soooooo friggin hard. It also sucks when it messes with your concentration and you're trying to take your final exam.....lol

I guess you and I both need our butts whooped for losing touch with this thread and all the wonderful friends we've made on here.

Oh, the Carolinas make ya pay a deposit too. I had to drop one class, failed another, and made a "D" in yet another class this past quarter. This coming quarter tho, two of my four classes are online. This was a suggestion of my advisor (also head of the Culinary Department) so that I can recover from all of my surgeries. He also "ordered" me NOT to even sign up for a "kitchen class" until at least the fall quarter.

Roy, I've been extremely sick. I had to have two emergency surgeries for kidney stone removal back in May. My fiancee and I (who I met on here) have been going through a lot with a pregnancy loss and my mom being diagnosed with colon cancer, having that cancer removed and now going through recovery.

I started school 2 weeks after I lost the baby, just finished my first quarter. I'm studying Culinary Arts at the Art Institute of Raleigh-Durham (thankfully it's only 30 miles from home....lol).

He was a jacka$$......I know i haven't been on here in forever!!!! I've started school and right around midterms i got real sick.... hope y'all been doin ok!

Hi y'all, I haven't online in a good while. I just had a makeover (chopped off my hair) and changed my info.....need some feedback please!!! Greatly Appreciated.

Hey everyone, I need some advice, besides going to the DR. I go see him on the 17th.....


I had a nasty fall a week before Mother's Day, and landed on my hip. Of course I didn't fell any pain right then because I was way too embarassed. Starting just after Mother's Day, the hip pain started. I don't mean typical soreness, I'm talking about crippling pain that has only gotten worse over the weeks. I finally went to the ER two weeks ago, and was told that it's just bruised since the ER Dr couldn't find anything on the x-ray.

I am at my wit's end now. I'm in so much pain that I'm unable to do anything, and my hip gives out when I walk. Anything I can do until I see my regular Dr on the 17th???

um....wow
