write to me, you arn't alone and there are still good people out there who would not hurt you. I know depression, illness, the loss of a child, my family blackmailing me, all kinds of crap, but you know through it all, I have found ways to survive with my sanity intact. The fact you reached out says a whole lot about you. I am 59. I inter-act with people on this site because they are not fakes. These are some real people with some real scarry issues in their lives. I think this site is for people who have some holes in the heart. Maybe reaching out to other humans in cyber land is a way of plugging some of those holes so they don't hurt as much. I am not smart, just an average lady, an artist, with grown up kids with problems too. Somehow connecting with others helps when you are scared, mad, not wanting to go on. I got sick of my own problems and sick of my own complaining. Keep tapping back, and try to be open to the possibility that there are people who care, just leave a crack open, you never know why you will get. Life is like forest gump said, it like a box of chocolate, you never know what you will bite into. Keep your head up, you too are the child of the universe, made of stardust. ginnie

Well said Ginnie! Thanks.

It's not easy being a human... and sometimes we're just too darn analytical about it all...

AMEN to that Addy !!!

Ginnie ! Thanks for your post It was awesome to read . y

Thank you all for the thoughtful posts. This is the only place I can come to feel loved, or even liked, and it doesn't even make me feel awkward or embarrassed to come talk here.

I am just drifting right now, and have been for quite some, trying not to think about the future, and ignoring the past as much as possible...

Hi, Lonely 1....I know that you don't know me because I'm not on here that often, but I'm here for you, too. I do understand what you mean by feeling that this is the only place you can go because I have felt that same way many times and all my friends here have pulled me out of pretty bad things. There have been lots of problems at times - and times when I've seriously thought that I couldn't take another second, but I'm still here. Once these people get their claws in you, you have no choice. Or that's what I've found, anyway....just kidding.

Talk to me anytime; I'm always available. I may not answer immediately, but I'll be around.
