ah, Kell...

I think it only counts if you help unstintingly, and I *was* getting resentful towards the end, heaven help me.

honestly, I'd have to label it as a wee bit snappish.

Mother Theresa I ain't.



Doody, are you saying I'm ODD or something?

You still put up with a lot for longer than humanly possible. You're a good friend. I'm glad you finally laid down the law and that your friend is finally getting much needed help.

All my dear friends you have all been through so much. I sometimes feel my problems to be so small in comparison. I do love you all and hope all is well at this time for you all

I think your getting resentful and snappish is what spured her on to get the help she needs. She obviously values your opinion and your friendship. You gave her a good reason to try something new. Now stop trying to minimize what you have done for her...you're a good friend and we love you for it.

*gulp*

yes, Mom!



looks like they put her on one of the SSRIs, and some antianxiety meds.

lol, I had to Google the names, meds have different labels up North.

so I didn't recognize "Sertraline" or "Rivotril" (known to US'ians as Zoloft and Klonopin)

I sure hope that stuff helps her, because she's a good friend, a good woman, and deserves good help.
