Dear Friend,
I am sorry you had a hard time earlier.

Take a TV fast for two or three days. See how you feel.

I'm glad that you are feeling better than you were earlier.

Dear Steve,

glad to hear you are doing better.

there isn't always a clear reason why sometimes it's worse than others.

- sometimes there's a combination.
- sometimes it seems out of the blue.
- sometimes i think it's "just" chemical.....

.... but i think subtle things in our surroundings can upset our brain chemistry and far be it from us to know what or why.


we all here have delicate brain chemistry. that i know.

i hope you stay feeling better. sending you good thoughts. stay in touch with us.

i am going to try reading Psalms too.

((( hugs )))

I felt better today. Yesterday was very painfull. I hope that the researchers around the world are working hard to find out how to help us with mental health problems. BF

Dear Friend,

I have the same hope that you have.
In the meantime, take care of yourself.

The news is really bothering me tremendously. I have, on a temperary basis,blocked the Sat/Cab news networks out of my fav lists.

I'm going to look at more balanced news like PBS,NBC,CBS,and ABC. Sat/Cab news are saying anything,and everything that they can think of. So are the "Moving on" people,and it's finally got to me.

They should put a warning label on their Sat/Cab news programs saying that their news programs may scare you out of your wits,and may make you think that there is no hope. Steve

you know, that is actually a REALLY good idea... expanded a little.

what if they gave news broadcasts a rating, like they do movies?

you know, G, PG-13, PG, and R. and for the really aggressive that scare you out of your wits, how about maybe SW (Scare Wits)?

i mean i know the ratings are for kids, but i use them for myself too! for instance, i know if i watch a G rated movie, there can't be anything too violent in it. G means, safe from certain things. PG-13 means relatively safe. they really SHOULD do that with news!!!!

i hardly ever watch news because it bothers me so much.

good job blocking them Steve, i hope you recover from this soon.

The world in general can be a scarry place. reach out as you are doing. There is still alot of good people who really do care. We just don't hear on the TV some of the good stuff. Its often just a few minutes at the end of news show if that. We need a good news station, to keep re-affiriming our humanity. There are good souls in this site to help with the worry. Be good to yourself, even when things look bleak.

You can't find any real news anymore. It's all editorials or scare tactics to get ratings.

Even the local news isn't safe for everyone. I love the 10-second commercials they run during prime time, "this ordinary thing can kill you... find out what it is at 11!"

I'm starting to feel better. I'm coming out of this episode of a shadow over everything. The fear has let up,and I'm feeling much better. BF

Dear Friend,
It is good for the updates.
I hope that tomorrow is a better day for you as well.
