It's stressful to me, I have not talked to him for more than 5 years. I realized that it's not because there's a problem between us, I'm not feeling he could support me. Now I am feeling I'm strong enough. After all he's the only person in my family that I don't resent. I need to remind myself that I had good childhood memory in my family, not everything is bad.\r\nI don't want to hold onto my parents. The pain was too deep, if I have some kind of connection with him, I would let go my mother. Everything I share on the social media, he will probably let my parents know.\r\n\r\nI desire for healthy relationships, if I could restore healthy relationships with my original family, I'm greatly satisfied and comforted. However, the relationships with my original family members will probably be restored the last. That's why I need to take a step forward to approach my brother, but I need to keep a distance, social media becomes a place where I could connect with them, at the same time I can keep the distance.\r\n\r\nI'm not feeling comfortable after read a comment. I blocked the person. At this stage, I'm very sensitive to other opinions. I need to stay away from comments regarding today's journal. If I waited overnight, I don't think I will be that sensitive.\r\n\r\nI spent sometime with my daughter. I'm feeling stressed, need a break. It's hard to discipline her because of my mental illness. I need to accept that. It's hard to accept that there are a lot of things I couldn't do for her, it's not my fault. My mental illness makes me feel I'm a bad father, I couldn't take some responsibilities for my child, well it's not my fault.\r\n\r\nOne of the area I need to restore is the intimacy with my wife. I had bad experience with her when I feel she pushed me too hard. It was very painful, when I look back, she didn't do anything to harm me, she has a right to do whatever is important to her. Since I had to stay with her due to my condition, bad things are not as bad as I thought, it was reality. I had to count on myself. The intimacy between us was hindered due to the bad experience I had with her. It's time to separate between these two. They're basically two different issues.\r\n\r\nI just post a picture on weChat, then I don't feel I need to send emails to my mother, maybe once a day, not 5 times a day. I'm feeling connected with my original family. At the same time I'm feeling stressful when my brother is closer to me, I'm afraid that I will introduce stress into my life and I was not able to handle the stress. I need to show myself that I can manage the stress well. It looks like changing from my mother to my brother in one day is stressful. I need to keep the old way of doing thing, don't change everything overnight.\r\n\r\nSince I added my brother to my friend in social media, I'm feeling stressed, but it's good stress. In the past 5 years, my only connection to my family was email exchange with my mother. Now it's time to shift to social media. There are two different kinds of stress, one is getting close to my brother might introduce new stress into my life, 2nd is that I leave my mother is stressful. I did a lot of expression in my journal today, it shows that I'm very stressful today regarding to the change, but I was able to contain the stress in one journal, that's good. It takes time before I feel comfortable about this new communication with my family. I need to separate the material I share with my family from the material I share with my parents.\r\n\r\nMy daughter blame me for not helping my wife assemble her basketball rack. I was a little upset, then I went to help my wife until she let me go. It's hard to get over this blame, it makes me feel I'm a bad person, but I can't tell her that I'm mental ill and I couldn't do this. I don't want to push myself, on the other hand, I found that I could help my wife do things like this. I don't have to volunteer to do things, but when she needs me, I can do my best. Next time I need to ask her be specific about the areas she needs me to help. I'm feeling I have the tendency to over commit myself. Just now I gave a lot of suggestions to her, then I feel very stressful. When I help her, it's still her responsibility to assemble the rack, I'm not taking the responsibility away from her, I need to ask her what exactly she needs me to help with. She just need me to hold the pole since it's too heavy for her, I can do it.\r\n\r\nI'm bothered by my daughter, she stays in my room and don't want to leave. I am not feeling comfortable when she blames me, I throw her into her bed.\r\n\r\nI am having a lot of thoughts talking to my mother about how I did as a father. I started to see that I need my parents to accept that I'm a good parent, on the other side I don't feel I accept my parents. I did very this afternoon, I took her to her own room twice to separate her from us while she's throwing tantrums. Also I came to comfort her after a few minutes. I also need them to accept that I always take good care of myself. I took good care of myself in this family and the original family. It's not my fault, not my fault, something just happened. Everything happened on me is not my fault. I resent my father.\r\n\r\nI watched some TV drama and played lineZ game, my mind stopped me.\r\n\r\nI couldn't sleep, the stress is too much for me to deal with. The stress comes from the change of my mind. I started to see that I could separate between all these people. Basically the issues are between me and my parents. My brother didn't hurt me, it's time to restore the relationship with him. Since this evening, I started to separate the outside world from my original family. Actually I was able to separate my wife from my parents. I did very well on this. Now it's time to separate the world from my family. In the past I resent authorities.","is_bookmarked":false,"reply_count":1,"url":"/m/NewLife2017/journal/3-18/","title":"3/18","privacy":"public","muted":false,"cmnt_policy":"open","reactions":[{"type":"SUPPORT","count":0,"reacted_by_me":false,"nicknames":[],"__typename":"PostReactions"},{"type":"THANKS","count":0,"reacted_by_me":false,"nicknames":[],"__typename":"PostReactions"},{"type":"USEFUL","count":0,"reacted_by_me":false,"nicknames":[],"__typename":"PostReactions"}],"groups":[{"name_id":"mental-health-america","group_id":200202,"name":"Mental Health America","url":"/groups/mental-health-america/","topics":[],"__typename":"Group"}],"is_followed":false,"ti_followed":false,"sticky":false},{"__typename":"Post","id":"13917398978349346892","tracking_id":"13917398978349346892","slug":"jrnl-therapy-6","class":"jrnl","created":"2012-10-18T13:22:45Z","active":"2012-10-18T13:22:45Z","updated":null,"depth":0,"author":{"avatar":{"small":"/assets/images/you-small.png","__typename":"Avatar"},"friendship":null,"site_roles":[],"nickname":"tigersassy","status":4,"__typename":"User"},"content":"I used to be in therapy. Started in college because I was having nightmares and it freaked out my roommate... and the suicidal thoughts were there. That Dr was helpful, I wound up spending half of my last term in a stress unit. Apparently I had sent him (Dr) an email that I don't remember sending and sent it as someone else it was weird he made me read the email. Then he started trying to find me a hospital to go to. He didn't want me to go back to my parents after school, but I had no where else to go. He tried man did he try, but then I had the break and spent a week and a half or so in the hospital. That time was really fuzzy. But the day I was released the Dr came and picked me up to drive me back to school because my parents still thought that's where I was. On the way back he told me he wasn't going to be at the school the following year and that if I came back he was going to give my file to the lady Dr at the school, but I was in trouble with one of the deans, so I didn't wind up going back. But the Dr did set me up with a counselor at home. So I went back to my parents. I started seeing the new counselor she was useless. I never worked out anything with her. Most of my appointments I could get by with talking about fluff stuff. My brother raped me while I was seeing her. I told her about that and the other things going on in that house. I didn't tell her about the abortion until our last appointment (she was retiring). She had never asked never questioned me about the pregnancy and the rape and abortion was done about a year into seeing her and I saw her for about 4 years. Also during that time I was in an abusive relationship. I was living with a guy old enough to be my father who expected sex from me whenever he was horny and if I did that I didn't have to pay rent. Mind you he was my boss. I figured I'm not getting hit and its just sex so why not. My counselor knew about that but we never discussed it. So now I'm debating going to a new therapist. But I'm worried what if they just don't care or worse don't beloved me or just plain don't help and the world falls apart more. I already feel lost.

I am going to go back to my journal entry and get the name for you. So now your wondering well if your taking it why not just spell it from the bottle...lol. Well because I don't want to get up! LOL!! My Fibro has been kicking my butt yesterday and today I mean I can not walk or even bend over and normally I would feel depressed about the situation but I don't. And I know its because of me taking that supplement! I don't have any negative side effects or anything. I will say this, I took the supplement in the morning, I would recommend that you take it at night. The first two day I was so sleepy but after that I have been feeling SO GOOD!!!! I didn't mind being sleepy because I wasn't sleeping before then so I needed it. Since the pills help you sleep I can see why the first 2 days I was sleepy. But since then I can sleep thru the night and I get up in the morning and the mood is NOT grey and I actually have energy. \r\n\r\n So consider it. You and I both know that everyone is not the same but since its all natural I don't think it would hurt but please if nothing else research it so that you don't have any adverse side effects. Also, speaking of adverse side effects there is another all natural supplement that helps with mood and digestion its is called ST. JOHNS WART. YOU CAN NOT TAKE THIS SUPPLEMENT WITH MOST MEDICATIONS !!!! IT CAN CAUSE YOUR SYMPTOMS TO WORSEN OR EFFECT YOUR HEALTH. You can ask your doctor but I would ask a pharmacist (my mother is a pharmacist) they will tell you if your taking medications for pain, mood, steroids really almost all medications you SHOULD NOT TAKE THIS SUPPLEMENT. A lot of people aren't aware of this but I research any medications I take and when I got to the doctor I take a list of all my medications and the doses that I take. When it is a new doctor I take the actual bottle to the first appointment. This is only because the doctor I had before my current doctor never looked at my meds and I was taking things that I should not have been taking together and some of the meds worked against each other. I was not getting better. One day I was watching Dr. OZ...lol and he was talking about this and he was right! When I realize that my first doctor did not see the importance of reviewing my meds I I IMMEDIATELY CHANGED DOCTORS!! And my current doctor said that you should ALWAYS bring your meds or a list of your meds and doses when your first see your doctor or if you fill that you are not feeling better and have your doctor check them because most of them cant remember all your meds and in most cases they don't have EVERYTHING that your taking or changes of your meds in your records. When you call your doctor and they send you another med or change something a lot of them don't pull your record and record the change! Anytime my doctor wants to change my meds the first thing I ask is if this new medication going to work or cause any issues with my current medications. As soon as I ask that she looks in my file and reviews with me what I am taking and determines if there will be any issues.\r\n\r\n I know this message is long so I will just say one more thing...lol Although I love my current doctor and I know that I feel that she has my best interest at heart your pharmacist has a ACCURATE list of everything you take because they have to fill the script(AND NOW MOST OF THEM WILL EMAIL YOU A LIST OF WHAT YOU ARE TAKING OR YOU CAN GO UP THERE WITH YOUR ID AND THEY WILL GIVE IT TO YOU. I always get a list before I go to the doctor I know when my appointment is so I have them send it to my email before I go to the doctor. Also when I go to pick up my meds while they are checking me out I will ask is this new med going to work with my other meds. Because some places the pharmacist will proactively come to the window without you asking but there are other places they will just ask you if you have any questions. At that moment I ALWAYS say can you have the pharmacist review my meds to make sure this new med will work with my other meds. There are times the pharmacist actually suggested I talk to my doctor about certain meds working with my new med.\r\n\r\n It is my belief that we have to question and research because doctors are not in our homes while we are suffering and we are all wonderfully built and made different. There is no one else that is made like you. Doctors are making educated guesses. And as patients we pray that they know what they are doing and that they are right. But I believe that we must also be proactive in our own care.\r\n\r\n Like I said my Fibro is kicking my butt today. I can barely walk and I can even think of bending to pick up anything...lol But my head is clear and my spirits are up and I really believe its because of that natural supplement. \r\n\r\n You know what I just got up to get the bottle because at some point I would have had to move anyway...lol The supplement is called L-TRYPTOPHAN and another vitamin that I will swear by for depression is vitamin D!!! It helps your mood as well. You should be able to take vitamin D because that is in the food you eat and is naturally produced in your body. I have to take it by prescription because my vitamin was so low. When I changed doctors the first thing they did was make me take blood test and my vitamin B and D were horribly low. Vitamin B as most people know, effects your energy and since I have to deal with my Chronic Fatigue it helps me and vitamin D helps my depression and these are naturally produced in your body! So think about it and research it and decide for yourself.\r\n\r\n I hope the start of your day is going well and you can check with thru this site, but my daughter, I also found a app that will let you call and text over WIFI for FREE even when your phone service is off. (You know these kids know every work around) so you wont have to download anything on your phone but the app gives you a different phone number just thru the app, your regular phone number is still attached to your service but since my service is not working that is not doing me any good...lol. I am getting my phone back on when I get paid in a few days, but I am not sure if I want to do that then or what another week because I appreciate the time that there are not distractions. I have a home phone as well if I need to call and my doctors have my home phone number not my cell. But I know its easier to text. So I will send you a text this morning.\r\n\r\n I will talk to you later:) Don't forget to do our goal of going outside every day no matter what that natural vitamin D that you get from the sun is priceless and also the oxygen from fresh air energizes you as well as lift your mood better than any pill!\r\n\r\nI HOPE EVERYONE HAS A WONDERFUL DAY AND IF YOU CANT PHYSICALLY GO OUTSIDE OPEN YOUR WINDOW (or crack it if its cold...lol) FRESH AIR WILL LEFT YOUR SPIRIT. SUNLIGHT WILL LEFT YOUR MOOD.\r\n\r\nEVERYONE HAVE A GREAT DAY!!!!","is_bookmarked":false,"reply_count":1,"url":"/m/JANICE01/journal/importance-of-being-proactive-in-your-care-2-18-16/","title":"IMPORTANCE OF BEING PROACTIVE IN YOUR CARE 2/18/16","privacy":"public","muted":false,"cmnt_policy":"open","reactions":[{"type":"SUPPORT","count":0,"reacted_by_me":false,"nicknames":[],"__typename":"PostReactions"},{"type":"THANKS","count":0,"reacted_by_me":false,"nicknames":[],"__typename":"PostReactions"},{"type":"USEFUL","count":0,"reacted_by_me":false,"nicknames":[],"__typename":"PostReactions"}],"groups":[{"name_id":"autoimmune-disease","group_id":200044,"name":"Autoimmune Disease","url":"/groups/autoimmune-disease/","topics":[],"__typename":"Group"},{"name_id":"fibromyalgia","group_id":200192,"name":"Fibromyalgia","url":"/groups/fibromyalgia/","topics":[],"__typename":"Group"},{"name_id":"mental-health-america","group_id":200202,"name":"Mental Health America","url":"/groups/mental-health-america/","topics":[],"__typename":"Group"}],"is_followed":false,"ti_followed":false,"sticky":false},{"__typename":"Post","id":"12243049423718252897","tracking_id":"12243049423718252897","slug":"disc-who-can-help-me-fight-for-my-kids","class":"disc","created":"2020-08-29T16:48:58Z","active":"2020-08-29T16:48:58Z","updated":null,"depth":0,"author":{"avatar":{"small":"/assets/images/you-small.png","__typename":"Avatar"},"friendship":null,"site_roles":[],"nickname":"k209216","status":4,"__typename":"User"},"content":"I'll share what happened at my job last year in a different post to keep these things short, but I do need to share the fact that I'm on long term disability right now for anxiety/PTSD.\n\nThis last year has been a nightmare, issues with my job and lack of adequate medical care led me to end up on long term disability. Along with that, I lost my house (sale fell through), then had to file for bankruptcy. I ended up with a very bad attorney, and lost my home, lost my rental, lost both of my vehicles, and went for an entire month without pay because my bank was taking all of my direct deposits, which then resulted in me getting my electricity and cell phones disconnected. I ended up doing all of my paperwork myself, and then paid an attorney to help me file it and go to the hearing with me. I lost $5000, along with everything else.\n\nIn February, a month before I was going to end up on long term disability, I tried to get my ex to take care of our kids (he never does) so I could go out of town for medical care. He lives 85 north of us, in a different state, but he works in the town that we live in. He just didn't feel it was his responsibility to help me. So, once my bankruptcy was discharged, I sent him the official letter, telling him I wanted to move to AZ, which is where my oldest son and step-daughter lived. I wanted to move out there primarily for our daughter, who is extremely gifted in both music and art, and they had a school out there that I hoped she'd be able to attend.\n\nI didn't think my ex would have any issues with this, he didn't bother much with our kids, and he knew I was doing this for our daughter. He didn't, but his mother did, she's got an unhealthy attachment to our seven year old son. He told me that he agreed to let us relocate so I began to plan the move out there. Two weeks before we were supposed to move, I was served. He was not only objecting to the move, he was also asking the courts to give him sole custody. Why? He alleged that I had a severe mental illness (didn't have to say which one), and that I took drugs (which drugs?), and that I was planning to take off with our kids (that's why he told me he agreed, to get me to start making plans to move out there). Included in that objection was a restraining order that prevented me from taking our kids out of the county.\n\nI, fortunately, had just taken money out of my 401k, or I'd have been unable to hire an attorney. I hired one, didn't meet her until the first hearing, which was to see if the judge would allow us to go out to AZ temporarily. She should have known better, this judge doesn't allow temporary relocations of children, but that was minor in comparison to my attorney telling the judge, as soon as she called on her, that she wasn't prepared for the hearing. It didn't go well, and the judge denied my request to relocate. \n\nWhile we waited for the judge to make a decision, we remained restricted to the county, and then I started getting the subpoenas that his attorney was issuing, along with a HIPAA waiver, so they could get approval to access my medical records. I was horrified, I felt so violated by this, you'd think there'd have to be some basis for this, other than an allegation. It seemed as though they were just going to let him keep fishing through my records until he found something he thought he could use to get custody.\n\nI hired another attorney, I had to pay him $8000 up front before he'd start working on my case, but he never did anything other than send emails to me and my ex's attorney. It'd been almost two months, I was still under the restrainer order, I had hoped to at least go visit my sister before my kids went back to school, but my ex's attorney wouldn't agree to let us go. \n\nBy now my discovery documents were almost a month overdue, this attorney still hadn't even filed a notice of appearance, much less done anything productive with my case, so, on to attorney number three, and another $7500.\n\nShe was, by far, the cruelest person i've dealt with in a very long time. I was optimistic that she'd help us (I'm a fool), bu four days after I paid her, she started telling me that she thought I woudl end up losing my children This was based on what my doctor had put in my file in June 2019, that said I was withdrawing from my children. I don't know why she felt it was necessary to tell me that when she had no strategy or game plan to follow it up with. I have PTSD, but I imagine any parent who was told something l9ike that would panic. I spent the weekend torturing myself as I went through all of the emails from back when we were still married (2014 - 2015). I didn't know if that would help, but I figured it might help demonstrate where my anxiety issues started. I didn't send them to her though, I just sent a quick email asking if she thought they'd help. For that, she spent three hours chastising me about trying to play the victim. This happened two more times, and her accusations just kept getting worse, and she continued to tell me I was going to lose my children. \n\nI didn't feel I had a choice but to let this woman do this to me, I knew I wasn't going to find another attorney, I had trouble finding her! I asked her earlier this week if she'd be willing to just speak to my brother, I knew she'd be less likely to do that to him than she had been to me. For that, she told me she was going to withdraw from my case, and now I'm probably going to have to go up against a very nasty father's rights lawyer. I've lost $35,000 since June, $25,000 of it was through these attorney's. \n\nI don't feel like anyone cares about me or my kids, my ex hasn't been impacted at all by this, since his legal fees are covered by his mother. I feel like I'm being held hostage. I can leave, but I'd have to give up my kids. This is also why I can't get new medical care, not when he can subpoena my records. \n\nI'm holding it together, but I'm all alone here, if nothing else it'd be nice to have people that i could talk to that understand what I'm going through. Hopefully someone out there knows someone who might be able to help me.","is_bookmarked":false,"reply_count":0,"url":"/groups/mental-health-america/discussion/who-can-help-me-fight-for-my-kids/","title":"Who can help me fight for my kids?","privacy":"public","muted":false,"cmnt_policy":"open","reactions":[{"type":"USEFUL","count":1,"reacted_by_me":false,"nicknames":["mich_can_sing"],"__typename":"PostReactions"},{"type":"THANKS","count":1,"reacted_by_me":false,"nicknames":["mich_can_sing"],"__typename":"PostReactions"},{"type":"SUPPORT","count":3,"reacted_by_me":false,"nicknames":["mich_can_sing","VHopeGold","Mary5220"],"__typename":"PostReactions"}],"groups":[{"name_id":"mental-health-america","group_id":200202,"name":"Mental Health America","url":"/groups/mental-health-america/","topics":[{"id":2257,"name":"Coping with the stigma of mental illness","__typename":"Topic"}],"__typename":"Group"}],"is_followed":false,"ti_followed":false,"sticky":false},{"__typename":"Post","id":"17532721184835375789","tracking_id":"17532721184835375789","slug":"jrnl-long-time-no-talk-and-health-update","class":"jrnl","created":"2012-07-08T06:46:28Z","active":"2012-07-11T07:07:38Z","updated":null,"depth":0,"author":{"avatar":{"small":"/assets/images/you-small.png","__typename":"Avatar"},"friendship":null,"site_roles":[],"nickname":"Lorelei47","status":4,"__typename":"User"},"content":"Hello Inspire Angels! I have missed the support that I was searching for but am happy to say that I am doing better than last time I updated info. I can't say I am pain or anxiety free. One of the reasons I stopped signing into the site is back and abdominal discomfort from sitting at the computer. I have a desk job that I do and when I get home, I need to be up and about to relieve the discomfort but then I get tired and lay down. My energy has been down to. So, many I check my emails and then get off the computer. \r\n\r\nI have been getting relief with some of the slow motility by going off dairy completely except for using butter on wheat bread. No cheese, no yogurt, no fiber bars. I also have been using a calorie and eating online journal to help find out what other foods are bothering me and to try to lose weight. Some of this stuff is helping but any slight variant in my menu or daily routine can mess me up and that send discomfort which creates the anxiety. I try to remember that the moment will pass in more than one way. \r\n\r\nAs for being able to work and restore social activities, I am doing that but it's very regemented and structured. I am not dating at the moment, so many dietary issues and the pelvic that give me so much anxiety and fears. My sister found a website like match.com but for people who have sexual dysfunction but want to be in a romantic relationship. People who have cancer is what created this site. It costs money so I haven't joined yet. I still have some doc appointments coming up so I don't have any confirmed advice or tests completed to help me make a better decision about being social. Very frustrating but I am in a far better place than last year and that is because I have physical and occupation therapy along with working with a dietician. So, I know this is what I will be experiencing for the rest of my life. I hope to have a better eating routine so I don't have so many days of discomfort but that is a work in progress. The online calorie counter also has a journal which allows me to log in how I am feeling that day and what kind of bowel movements I have had etc. Go to www.my fitnesspal.com. It's free and easy to use. \r\n\r\nThat's it for now. I will try to catch up on everyone I have responded to before but please understand if I don't get signed in as much.

Looking back I recall his family saying they were grateful that he had me, that I helped him so much, but they never elaborated, and were private people, so I just assumed he was depressed because of some things he had been through, and had come out of it and they were glad of that. My first serious relationship was with someone who was bipolar and I knew what that looked like (i thought). I didn't see it with him, for years. When I look back I can piece it together and realize that times I thought he was being irrational or overly moody he was having ups and downs. In the past, he would have a moody day here and there, and then by the evening or the next day he would apologize and everything was ok. For years now he has had an issue with making excessive purchases. Thankfully we haven't been completely broke from them, but there are times were its made it hard to pay bills and such. He said to me that he buys things cause he thinks that will help him, somehow, but it never does. Several years ago he experienced the loss of a job, he acted very out of character after that and I thought at that point that our relationship couldn't survive, but fate stepped in, we ended up pregnant with our first child and things changed for the better. Two years later he experienced the loss of a parent. This sent him over the edge. He blamed me for everything, insisted we had never been happy and had had problems for years. It took months and months of me begging him to get help and going through the crushing agony of getting emails and texts and the occasional in person conversation of telling me how we are unhappy and how we cant be together and how its all gone; before he got help. He started therapy they diagnosed him as bipolar. I thought they were wrong, I thought he was just depressed and he had never experienced such a big loss before that he was having a hard time coping. He started therapy, and they gave him medication. He didn't take the medication, but the therapy seemed to help. I could tell a complete difference in him on weeks that he had been verses if he missed going. I wish I had believed their diagnosis and researched it more, wish I had insisted on the medication. We have needlessly had alot of bad days over this, when he could have been managing his illness. Flash forward 5 years, and here we are again. He had stopped therapy when we switched insurances and hadn't been for a year or so. I knew he was moody and honestly it had become such a normal part of his character in the last five years, that I thought that is just him now, like with the death, it was what he gained, being a jerk. I feel foolish for not knowing for not pushing him to get treatment to stay with therapy. He has ruined several trips and seemingly good days with his mood swings and its normally the kids that set him off, and I thought to myself he just has no patience, but it was always more than that, and I didn't know. His first big episode (after the death of his parent), he had confided in another woman, and he would stay gone for days a time, drinking and hanging out with friends. I was so lost and couldn't comprehend how it all happened but I hung on to the fact that he was grieving and it wasn't going to be an easy road. Honestly he put me through the worst kind of pain and mental torture. Months of not knowing what was going on, dealing with a toddler and a newborn and thinking that everything was crashing down around me and the reasons were fabricated, untruths that were all in his mind. I forgave him though, accepted that I cannot change the past, but moved on with him and have tried to live a relatively normal life. Two months ago, it started again, the \"we are never happy, I'm not happy, you cant make me happy.\" He has started leaving for days a time. Cuts me out, doesn't answer texts or calls. If he does reply its normally one or two words hours later. Yesterday he showed up after being gone overnight and all day long with a brand new vehicle. It's like a giant F U sitting in my driveway. We have never not discussed such a major purchase. He had told me last month he needed to get his head together, so I made him a therapy appointment. They reevaluated him and diagnosis is the same, bipolar manic depression. He has medication and has been taking it. But this is only the second week, and when he takes off from home, of course hes not taking it. I know it takes a while for medication to help. I am afraid of the time it takes, I feel its so urgent for him to get out of this episode that it cant work quick enough. I started back to school recently after being out for years. So now I work full time, go to school full time, deal with small kids and have this on my plate. I don't know how to deal with someone who a hour ago texted me and said \"i thought this was a phase, its not, you all cannot make me happy\" . What am I meant to do with this. He believes not only me, but our children as well, hold no happiness for him. The last major episode, I would engage in the conversations, and beg and plead and cry. I refuse to do that now. I am not going to be bullied in to agreeing that we have some made up issues. I've been researching the illness. A lot of people say it helps to talk to them, but he won't talk to me. He has told me I lost his trust, when I asked him why, he finally said it was because I told a friend about (something in particular, that was never a secret), and apparently he wasn't prepared to answer questions about it. He blames me again for his life, for his unhappiness. I know that I am meant to be understanding, and supportive. But I am human too. Its devastating. I read one article that said 90% of marriages with a spouse who is bipolar end in divorce. I don't know where they got that figure, but its scary to see. I don't want a divorce. I have devoted my life to this man and I want him to get better. On the flip side, I cannot answer for his actions and our children are still very young and don't understand, nor can I tell them. I cannot tell them, or really any one. I have no one to help me cope and I feel like I am drowning. After reading alot online I have found most of his actions are pretty standard for the illness. So I am left thinking ok, so then what, medication cannot un-ring the bell. Its why I don't involve other people, I do not want other people to think poorly of him. He is a good man, father, a hard worker and usually very caring and loving. He just isn't these things right now. I have tried just giving him the space he is creating, but then i feel like, if I am not fighting for him, will it make it worse? is this the wrong course, so do i do as I did before and try and reason with him? Is it wasted, needed, or will it do more harm, I just don't know. I grew up with an alcoholic, my childhood was dotted with some really good memories and a whole lot of misery. I do not want that for my children. Right now I am in panic mode because I feel like if only the medication was helping more, things would improve, but I am terrified he will make decisions in the meantime that we cannot recover from. Hence the urgency. I would like him to research his illness and read the articles i have read, and see that hes not alone in how he feels, and that even his actions are not unique, but he isn't in a mindframe to do that. I do not know if it is even worth me trying to mention or if it would go overly negatively as well. Even when I don't say things, usually later I will get, \"you looked like you wanted to say something and didn't, I cant do this\" . Of course I want to say something. I want to scream and shout, you are killing my soul, you are ripping my heart out and stomping it in to the ground daily. My daughter is 5 and cries herself to sleep on nights he isnt there. My son got out of bed night before last to ask me if daddy loved him. He stays gone and they think hes spending the night at a friends house, because he told them, well if i have a drink, i dont drive so i will have to stay there. Which isn't far from true, but its so not normal and I am embarrassed thinking they are going to tell people he is out having slumber parties or something. I am at a stage in my own life that I need the most support from him and I get getting none, plus pulled down his rabbit hole. I wish there were magic words, or an overnight pill, something. \r\n\r\nAny suggestions, comments?","is_bookmarked":false,"reply_count":37,"url":"/groups/mental-health-america/discussion/looking-for-support-help-coping-with-a-bipolar-spouse/","title":"Looking for Support/ Help Coping with a Bipolar Spouse","privacy":"public","muted":false,"cmnt_policy":"open","reactions":[{"type":"SUPPORT","count":0,"reacted_by_me":false,"nicknames":[],"__typename":"PostReactions"},{"type":"THANKS","count":0,"reacted_by_me":false,"nicknames":[],"__typename":"PostReactions"},{"type":"USEFUL","count":0,"reacted_by_me":false,"nicknames":[],"__typename":"PostReactions"}],"groups":[{"name_id":"mental-health-america","group_id":200202,"name":"Mental Health America","url":"/groups/mental-health-america/","topics":[{"id":2242,"name":"Bipolar disorder","__typename":"Topic"}],"__typename":"Group"}],"is_followed":false,"ti_followed":false,"sticky":false},{"__typename":"Post","id":"4509047779471269854","tracking_id":"4509047779471269854","slug":"disc-details-of-commonalities","class":"disc","created":"2024-02-04T18:55:54Z","active":"2024-02-04T18:55:54Z","updated":null,"depth":0,"author":{"avatar":{"small":"/assets/images/you-small.png","__typename":"Avatar"},"friendship":null,"site_roles":[],"nickname":"Zusuis","status":4,"__typename":"User"},"content":"\u003Cp>Don't be scared, this is actually quite common.

voices?\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>Those voices in your head are not demons or some sort of governmental power. Those are normal people who think it's funny for you to hurt your self and other people. They like to give dreams, possibly visions and disguise themselves as others, especially to annoy. ( especially if they seem like they are shouting, they are trying to get that one to hate you. They will always be eager to pin the blame on anyone else except themselves. Normally it is someone you many know (like someone you dated and/or have wronged. Or it can be someone else that you never met before and you have a friend that wronged the psychic and now the psychics are targeting you because they really hate that person. And making your life miserable ( possibly killing yourself) is a very funny idea to them. Because they can get away with it without ever having something bad happen to them. And your screams and suffering make it all the sweeter. Don't let your guard down, do not tell them anything. They only bargain and try to trick you out of info on anything to use it against you or to distract you from the real psychics.\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>Keep in mind it's usually more than one, because it's the psychics entire family, possibly their cousins and such. That do it too. Keep in mind that there are 2 reasons you hear them. One, they are spying on you. Which means it's a jealous lover or a scout. Or 2, they are being jerks because you're friends with someone they hate and they think it's funny.\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>If they know what you're around, they may play the sound or the voice of what you were just near in your head. This is because they were either there, or you thought in tune/played any sound in your head. Keep in mind they will track the location of where you're at. And use the voice of that person/sound to toy with you. Keep in mind however, that persons/ sound will seem forced or yelling. It is because the psychics are trying to confuse you. If you listen carefully to the air, you'll notice that it's not quite the same as a persons psychics thought channel. They won't want the real persons thought wave in your head. Because they don't want to be discovered if you tell other who is really doing it. Beware though, as harassers can be tricky. Pay attention to how to harassers sound. And if it's familiar. They will rely on each other if you get too close and switch. Then bait you to hate someone else, mock you and laugh.\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>They cannot harass you if they are sleeping, as they have no control over their brain function. These ones would be a bit more submissive. They do hate their own tactics used against them, and are psychic because they are usually cowards. They do not want to get in trouble in real life.\u003Cbr>Remember the details of them. Especially if they ask calmly if you hear voices. Then they will attempt to get in tune, you'll hear their psychic thoughts, trying to match yours through your psychical sound, or another psychic showing your psychic brainwave to another. If you notice someone trying to catch / make you do something illegal a lot, then their friend/ family member comes out who would not like that. Are they there in body but have trouble paying attention to what's around them? Are the voices really active at the moment? Does that one spend a of their money on buying you things to keep you unproductive and possibly full of harmful drugs or liquor? Are there a lot of suicides / people going psycho on one side of a suspected psychic's family and not the other? ( usually this will be the males who die off.)\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>Do they come from the same bloodline of other psychics? Is there a reason one hates you and tries to tell everyone else about it to make you seem evil? Do they seem overly judgmental about anything? Are they trying to make you seem scared or paranoid about something, then lead you back to someone you may be in a relationship with? Does everything seem to revolve around them and what they want? Are you getting targeted e-mails about something you think about a lot, or things you don't and try keep secret? Are they asking for some sort of proof about you? Or lead you to scams/pay sites? Are you getting a lot of fake people messing you doing the same? Maybe friend requests from people you don't know but are distantly related/friends with anyone you know but unfriended? Does anyone appear too stupid and keep messing up? Does someone keep asking you questions such as to look where a light source is ( especially if you wear glasses. Do you get questions like \"Hold this bomb for me\" while it's ticking? It's probably that person in front of you. One of these things are not like the others.\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>Here's an example of a possible psychic response. Keep in mind, this is only and example.\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>Just out of interest what is the difference if the voices are quiet or loud? Is it a matter of functionality for the person, with louder voices being more intrusive perhaps than ones that are quieter? Also how does thought echo differ from thought broadcast. If a person is say hearing their thoughts being beamed out of the radio at them, is that thought echo or thought broadcast? What about so called Musical Ear Syndrome versus auditory hallucinations of music, what's the differential on that?\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>Notice they are more interested in the effectiveness of the psychic harassment than useful input. Again, they tend to nitpick, or divert attention. Or look for flaws in how they are discovered. If anyone speaks to you like this or about the voices and starts ranting about crystals and such these are one of them, a supporter of them and are probably the jerks I'm talking about.\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>mental meta physical star psychological star spiritual star supernatural star clairvoyant intellectual mystics occult sensitives analytics cerebral immaterial impressible impressionable intellective preternatural psyche psychical psychogenic responsive sensible sentient supersensible supersensitive supersensory super sensual susceptible susceptive telekinetic telepathic unworldly\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>They also like to spread out, across states or cities. I used to be a cashier in Mesa a's. and heard them once in a while when a Jennifer dicky, daughter of Silva cox. ( they both told me they were daughter and mother. Silva cox being the older one.\u003Cbr>So I think it's just her and the ones she's related to. T there's many free ways to look up people's family trees for free online. I used one to make they are related.) They're very aggressive, and enjoy picking on people. They like sending seprate family members out to annoy and try not to let the people they 're annoying get in tune with other people they are annoying. This is so no one knows who's who. So there's an example for you all. Some of them do work in the health care feild for mental or other health, and are related to the internet provider company Cox communications. And they have other workers inside other internet service provider companies. And are often on / own psychic forums. This is track their progress and because they think it's funny. They are more than happy to decide their lives to this.\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>As for ways to prevent hearing them, avoid psychics. Get a good medication. Seroquel won't work too well. Divaporlax destroys liver and kidneys, and makes you feel like a zombie. Try olanzapine. As long as you do no drugs, it might help. Avoid crystals and all-natural remedies, you're wasting your time. Your problem is being harassed, not the energies of the moon and what happened eons ago on a distant planet. Try not to hurt yourself, or anyone else out there. Don't let them trick you.\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>Some may know how to \"turn off the psychic thing.\" Which is possible, but any info I release on that also can help them just be even bigger assholes or make new people psychic.\u003C/p>\u003Cp>\u003Ca href=\"https://www.mentalhealthforum.net/forum/threads/hearing-voices-inside-and-outside-head.123961/reply?quote=1572441\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener ugc nofollow\"> \u003C/a>\u003C/p>","is_bookmarked":false,"reply_count":0,"url":"/groups/mental-health-america/discussion/details-of-commonalities/","title":"Details of Commonalities","privacy":"public","muted":false,"cmnt_policy":"open","reactions":[{"type":"SUPPORT","count":0,"reacted_by_me":false,"nicknames":[],"__typename":"PostReactions"},{"type":"THANKS","count":0,"reacted_by_me":false,"nicknames":[],"__typename":"PostReactions"},{"type":"USEFUL","count":0,"reacted_by_me":false,"nicknames":[],"__typename":"PostReactions"}],"groups":[{"name_id":"mental-health-america","group_id":200202,"name":"Mental Health America","url":"/groups/mental-health-america/","topics":[{"id":2250,"name":"Schizophrenia","__typename":"Topic"}],"__typename":"Group"}],"is_followed":false,"ti_followed":false,"sticky":false},{"__typename":"Post","id":"16828723132470831490","tracking_id":"16828723132470831490","slug":"disc-advice-for-next-steps-msfken","class":"disc","created":"2020-04-18T17:56:19Z","active":"2020-04-18T22:15:22Z","updated":null,"depth":0,"author":{"avatar":{"small":"/assets/images/you-small.png","__typename":"Avatar"},"friendship":null,"site_roles":[],"nickname":"dallascopper33","status":4,"__typename":"User"},"content":"Overall Problems/Narratives\n\nMultiple anxiety disorders\n\nGeneral Anxiety Disorder(GAD)- Anxiety from compulsive ruminations or constant racing thoughts. There is not a thought that seems more concerning than the others. I have been asked “what is the one thought that bothers me the most?”, and I don't have an answer for that. I have thousands of thoughts that pops up randomly which include past rejections, past fears, past conflicts, seemingly millions of \"what if\" scenarios that could have played out differently(Such as what if I said or did something differently. What if someone else said or did something differently), future interactions and conversations, and mundane thoughts. When I am able to clear one thought from my mind, another one pops in. I feel like I am playing the \"Whack-a-Mole\" game with my mind. This perpetual game saps my mental energy which then drains me of any physical energy. I honestly feel that I cannot make any improvement with other problems/narratives unless I can have the mental energy to get my racing thoughts under control. I have tried therapy and medications with no success.\n\nSocial Anxiety- Definitely lifelong, definitely more towards women, and probably can be classified as severe. Unable to hold a conversation with strangers. The more strangers that I am around, the more uncomfortable I am. I am generally more comfortable in one on one situations, but that doesn't mean I am comfortable. When someone makes fun of me in public, I just want to leave the situation and go home. When I get rejected by a woman, my anxiety goes through the roof even if I barely know the woman. I usually cannot calm down from a single female rejection. That single rejection can consume me for several weeks or months.\n\nDepression- I find myself wanting to take many naps during my free time, even if I have no issues sleeping at night. A common narrative is if I was to die, would any one miss me? Or would they be relieved they would not have to interact with me anymore?\n\nNo social support system- I have felt that I have never had a family member or friend who can show empathy and is willing to show/provide support without ridiculing me, tearing me down, or dismissing my problems. \n\nI suffered from childhood sexual trauma for many years. This has led to a lifelong sexual dysfunction. I believe this sexual dysfunction is more mental than physical. But could be both.\n\nA common narrative is one that I am unable to find women with empathy. Many women say they have empathy, but no one actually shows it.\n\nA common narrative is I suffer constant rejections from women. \n\nI have never had a girlfriend. I have never lived with a single woman.\n\nI have never had a birthday party.\n\nI have never kissed someone at midnight for New Year's. Going to a New Year's party and seeing everyone with a romantic partner starts my new year off in a negative way. The thought loop \"Will I continue to be single?\", \"Will this year be different?\", \"Do I repulse women?\", \"Will I continue to suffer anxiety and depression?\" starts to play over and over. Sometimes I feel it would be better to stay home instead of being at the party because I have to fake that I am happy for the new year.\n\n\nChildhood(Dad Physical, Verbal, and Neglect Abuse)\n\nOne of my first childhood memories was with my dad and mom being separated. I was 5 or 6. Dad was trying to work things out with our mom, and he spent all night arguing with her at her one bedroom apartment. I don't remember my mom and dad ever being happy before the divorce. I only remember the constant arguing, fighting, and verbal abuse between the two. My sister and I was in the single bedroom, so we could not see anything in the living room. But we could hear everything and all the verbal abuse that went on for hours. Dad eventually wore Mom down and they joined us in the bedroom to sleep. He began to try and have sex with our mom with my sister and I in the same bed. Our mom kept saying no over and over. Dad punched mom in the face and left. Mom ended up with a bad black eye.\n\nMy father took custody of me and my sister after the divorce. I was age 6 or 7. My dad was bitter about the divorce, and was constantly trying to expose what a terrible mom that we had. Due to this extreme bitterness, I feel the reason he chose custody was so he didn't have to pay our mom child support. \n\nMy dad once slapped my sister so hard that it left a hand print on her face for days. I don't think she was even 10 years old yet. \nEven though my sister and I were good kids, we did get spanked a lot during our preteen years. During spankings, the only thing remember is the amount of rage in my dad. \n\nMy sister once asked for my dad's help in writing a cursive J. After many attempts with my dad, she laughed about not being able to write a cursive J. My dad went into a fit of rage. He began to demand that she write a cursive J, or he would spank her. My sister became frightened and still could not write a cursive J. Each attempt she was unsuccessful, each time my dad spanked her. This probably happened about 10 times in a 15 minute period. I would say she was spanked a total of 100 times with a belt until she finally successfully wrote a cursive J. I witnessed this, and I don't think I ever asked my dad for help with anything because of this.\n\nIn 8th grade I was constantly sick with respiratory infections. Self diagnosis due to no doctor: it started off as a flu, turned into pneumonia, then to bronchitis. Dad never noticed I was sick for 6 months, so I never went to a doctor. In the middle of one night I was having a coughing attack. It lasted for a very long time. Dad yelled(loud and angry) from his bedroom that I better stop coughing or he would come into my room and give me a beating.\nDad rarely talked to us. He gave us no attention, affection, social skills, or life skills.\n\nI think dad had social anxiety due to having one eye. \n\nDad did not go to my high school graduation. Dad did not go to my Marine Corps graduation.\n\nDad never visited me in South Carolina. He never visited me in Wichita.\n\nDad was basically unemployed my entire childhood. We grew up in poverty. \n\nI felt my sister and I were basically maids/servants. We did 90% of the cleaning and cooking. Dad obviously had time do more of the chores because he was always unemployed. But he chose not to do more. \n\nI never went to a dentist as a child.\n\nHe had his first heart attack at 45. Dad died in 2001 from a second heart attack at age 50.\n\nOverall dad was very controlling. I was never relaxed living with him. I felt intimidated and fearful of him growing up. I think this constant childhood fear and intimidation has caused me to have dreams where 90% of the dreams are of my dad trying to kill me, even after his death.\n\n\nChildhood(Mom Abandonment and Neglect)\nMom chose not to have custody of my sister and I. Proven by court documents. She was allowed custody of us two weekends a month.\n\nMom took drugs early in our childhood.\n\nShe remarried a couple of years after the divorce.\n\nShe chose not to take custody of us after going to child protective services about my sister being slapped.\n\nOne night when I was around 12 years old, my stepdad went into a drunken rage. He threaten to chop off the hands of my sister and I with a two foot machete. He actually raised the machete over our heads. I truly thought in that moment that I was going to be killed by my stepdad. After this traumatic event, Mom continued to stay with him. I was always fearful and intimidated by my stepdad throughout the rest of my childhood because of this. \nStepdad wanted to leave Texas, probably because he did not like having to spend two weekends a month with my sister and I. My step dad and mom moved to Oklahoma. This situation caused us to spend less time with mom. \n\nShe went to my high school graduation. She did not go to my Marine Corps graduation.\n\nMom basically stayed unemployed for our entire childhood, thus she only paid a minimum amount of $100 a month in child support. That was another reason why we lived in poverty. She also did not offer to take us to a doctor or dentist when needed. \n\nShe did not visit me in South Carolina or Wichita. She did visit me in San Antonio. She did not visit me in Wichita when I moved there a second time. \nWhen I was depressed and having suicidal thoughts 10 years ago, she laughed at me. She did not come to visit me when I needed her the most.\nMom never gave me any social skills, life skills, attention, or affection.\n\n\n\nOther family members\nDad's side of family- Multiple people were alcoholics. Dad, in general, did not abuse alcohol. He did have two DUIs while I was growing up.\nMom's side of family- All were involved with drugs or went to jail. Some went to jail multiple times. Stepdad abused alcohol during our younger years. He became sober after moving to Oklahoma. \n\n\nSister\nWe fought a lot. We were never really that close.\n\nShe ran away from high school at 15 because dad was too controlling. She was more rebellious. \n\nWhen she asked me for help, I would help her. When I asked her for help, it was like the world's biggest burden.\n\nShe did come to my high school graduation. She did not come to my Marine Corps graduation. She did not visit me in Wichita. She did not visit me in San Antonio. She did not visit me in Wichita when I moved there a second time. \n\nWhen I was depressed and having suicidal thoughts 10 years ago, she did not visit me and equated helping me to “spoon feeding” me. \n\n\n\nDating\n\nI never dated in high school\n\nFirst time I had sex was 23.\n\nI never dated in the Marines(one reason why I left). But I did have a couple of experiences that affected me. Once in Australia, I met a woman through an Australian friend at a bar. We hit it off and ended up making out. She said she wanted to see me the next night. We met again at a bar the next night. I brought a married friend from the Marines with me. She started to talk to him, and ditched me for him while I was standing there. She continued to see him every day for the next two weeks until we left Australia. Another experience I had was with a woman in the Navy in South Carolina. We were friends, and she once told me I was the nicest man she has ever known. I took this as a sign that she liked me, so I asked her to dinner. After dinner, we went to a club where some of my friends were there. She asked me to tell one of my friends to go dance with her. My mouth dropped wide open, as I started to feel she was ditching me. She saw this, and put her hand on my arm. She said \"I'm sorry... but... you know....\" and smiled at me. So she and my other friend hung out for the rest of the night. Even though I knew I was young, I was slowly starting to get a sense of dread that I would have a very difficult time of ever finding a girlfriend. The narrative that maybe I am \"too nice\" was starting to form. \n\nMy first dating experience was when I was 24 in Wichita. I was catfished by a woman/man living in San Antonio. It was extremely traumatizing and shocking that someone could be that manipulative. It confirmed the feeling.. the same sense of dread that I may never find a girlfriend. I tried to get counseling from that experience, but no psychologist/therapist responded to me.\n\nAt age 25, I met a woman named Ariana. I helped her through a tough/abusive divorce, her attempted suicide, and to get her life in order. We were dating but not in an exclusive relationship. A week after my dad died, she decided she did not want to date me anymore. I was devastated by the timing of it. This started to shape the narrative that women don't have empathy, and continued to confirm the sense of dread that I may never find a girlfriend. The narrative if I don't start having more positive experiences from women, will only make it more difficult to find a girlfriend.\n\nAt age 26, I started online dating. I was actually starting to meet more women. But I was having bad experiences with women standing me up. I was also starting to hear every cliché excuse of why the woman didn't feel like we were a good match after meeting them. Very few times things led to a sexual encounter. After my sexual dysfunction was exposed I would not hear from the women again. This started the narrative of how I can ever have a girlfriend with this sexual dysfunction.\n\nI once met a woman who told me to meet her at a bar downtown. I went to that bar, but she was not there. I did not have a cell phone, so I had to walk to a pay phone to call her. She said her friends wanted to go to a different bar, and she had no way of contacting me. She said to meet her there. I walked to the second bar, and I could not find her there. I walked to a pay phone to call her. She said her friends were being crazy and were bar hopping. They walked to a third bar. She said to meet her there. So I went to the third bar, and she was not there. I walked to a pay phone and called her. She apologized and seemed genuine, and that she was having a hard time controlling her friends. She said she was at a fourth bar and promised to wait for me even if her friends left for another bar. I walked to the fourth bar and I could not find her. This started the narrative that I let women walk over me, mainly because I don't have other options when it comes to dating a different woman.\n\nI once met a woman for dinner from an online personal. She wanted to go have a beer at a bar afterwards. We went to a bar, and she started to talk to a male friend that she knew. The conversation lasted for a while, and I was left out of the conversation. She eventually went dancing with him. After an hour of her not talking to me and dancing with the other guy, I realized I had been ditched again. The narrative of \"how I am being ditched when I am physically in their presence?\" starts. Which leads to lack of empathy from women again.\n\nI move to San Antonio when I was almost 28. I hoped that a new fresh start could help reset my dating life. I was meeting more women through online personals, probably due to living in a bigger city. But I was having similar experiences with women standing me up, cancelling plans at the last second, cliché excuses of not dating me anymore, bad sexual performances, and not following through with anything that they say. \nAfter two years of unsuccessful dating in San Antonio, I decided to go to the Philippines to meet someone for a possible relationship. I met a woman and we had a great time. I felt like it was a success that I had gone there. I couldn't wait to come back and see her again. As I was getting out of the shower and packing my bags to leave to go to the airport, the woman I was seeing was in my bed. She had a phone to her head with a pillow over her head while she was talking. She was also under the covers. I continued to get ready. She stopped talking, but still had the phone to her head. Then she started moaning, and I noticed that it looked like she was masturbating under the covers. She was having phone sex with another man on the phone after we had a great two weeks together, while I was standing in the same room. I couldn't believe she would do something like that in my presence, when I was only an hour away from going to the airport. I felt ditched and abandoned again. \n\nI moved back to Wichita a second time for work related reasons. I tried to continue online dating but I slowly started to receive less responses and I was meeting very few women. I got to a point where no women were responding to me and I felt like online dating was a big waste of time.\nI started to travel to other countries. I traveled to Peru, Colombian, and Panama because I have been more attracted to Latin women. I met some women in these countries but nothing that turned serious. Some just wanted money, some chose other men, some tried to pretend they were single when they actually had a boyfriend, some made excuses not to see me after I had traveled to their country to meet her, some met me once but then no more. I started sending money to women to meet me if they lived far away or to help them study English. They ended up taking the money, not meeting me, or never started to study English. \n\nFrancy, a Colombian friend that had moved to USA, wanted to leave her boyfriend. She was the only Colombian woman that took good care of me in her home country. So I wanted to reciprocate and take care of her in USA. I told Francy I could pay her plane tickets so that she could return to her mom. We also agreed we would spend some time in Wichita together. Francy and I had a great time in Wichita. We also had sex a few times. The last night before she was to fly to her mom, Francy was laying on my chest watching TV. She kept picking up her phone to send text messages and was doing it in front of my face. I was trying to respect her privacy by looking over her phone to see the TV. But she kept bringing the phone up to my face so I thought she was wanting me to see what she was doing. I started to read, and realize she was sending sexual text messages to the \"ex boyfriend\" she had told me she wanted to leave. I felt ditched and abandoned again. The narratives of \"why women are doing this to me while I am in their presence?\" begin on a constant loop. The narrative \"do women feel empathy towards men?\" begin on a constant loop. \n\nI moved to Orlando and continued with online dating here. But no women were responding to me, and I was unable to meet anyone due to a lack of responses. I started to travel less to other countries to meet women, as I really wasn't having any long term success with it. \n\nA couple of years ago, I was on a date with a woman in Orlando. I felt like it was the best date I had been on in years. It was the first time I felt really engaged in conversation. She wanted to go dancing. I took her to a club. When we got there she asked if she could invite some of her friends. I of course said \"Sure.\" \n\nBut I felt anxiety creeping in, from my past experiences. Was this going to be another ditch? When her friends got there, I noticed she was gravitating more towards another guy. Later she told him that \"you are so hot, you better have a lot of condoms!!\" I was standing right there in front of them, devastated that the nightmare had been repeated again. She goes off and starts dancing with him and kissing him. I got ditched again. The narrative loops continues.\n\nI think I am internalizing 1000s of unresponded emails as rejections over the last 20 years of online dating. I feel I have wasted hundreds and thousands of hours of my life being stuck in a loop when it comes to online dating. I have tried almost all dating websites and apps. \n\nWith 99% of my dating experiences being in the form of some sort of rejection, I feel women are being extremely picky. Friends tell me that I am kind, attentive, take care of myself, hard working, good friend, accountable, organized, responsible, loyal, honest, great listener, doesn't give up, likes traveling, thoughtful. I would also say that I am health conscience and impartial. I know I have faults, but with all of these great qualities, should I be having this much trouble with dating? I feel women are being extremely picky and not accepting of my faults. Do I have to be near perfect to get the attention of a woman that I desire?\n\n\nThe Mental Health Care Loop\n\nI understand the racing thoughts are caused my trauma and narrative loops. But how do I stop the narrative loop? My family doesn't want to help me, listen to me, or try to understand me. My friends don't want to help me, listen to me, or try to understand me. I feel family and friends would rather tear me down more than help build me back up. Every time I try to ask for help or try to get someone to understand me and fail, the narrative loop feeds on itself. No one is going to help me, no one wants to understand me.\n\nI have tried to help myself for many years, but I have been unsuccessful. I have tried different meditation and mindfulness practices with no improvement. Each session representing a failure. I have read many self improvement books such as The Dating Playbook for Men, Awaken the Giant Within, The Mystery Method, No More Mr. Nice Guy, The Art of Seduction, Attached, The Science of Mindfulness, Take Control of Your Life, Rejection Proof, Emotional First Aid, Rejection Reset, Conversation Casanova, The Man's Guide to Women, Unfu*k Yourself, The Power of Now, Mindset. Nothing changes with each book read. One reason is that my mind is constantly racing, that my mind has no energy left to retain anything that I read. I could read one of those books, and in one week I would not remember anything from that book. Every book I read, nothing changes, another failure, the narrative loop continues. I am running out of options.\n\nI have turned to my doctor, psychologist (tried CBT and EMDR), and a hypnotherapist. They have been unsuccessful. I have also noticed a general lack of urgency from any of these medical professionals. This would also include one Mindful Behavioral clinic waiting one week after a doctor sent the referral to contact me. Then being told by that clinic that I have to wait almost 2 months to see a psychiatrist. I waited the two months, only to talk with a counselor... not a psychiatrist. He told me I would have to wait one more month to see a psychiatrist. So it was almost a 14 week wait from the PCP referral to finally seeing a psychiatrist. This confirms the building narrative that there is a lack of urgency in the mental healthcare system. I have tried medications such as Sertraline, Wellbutrin, Effexor, Xanax, Viibryd, and Lorazepam(Ativan). These have had very little to no effect on me. The general lack of urgency, the lack of responses from some mental health care centers, and above failures feeds the narrative that I am not going to get well or be happy for a very long time. If there is one thing that I don't need, is another negative narrative loop that the mental health care system is creating. \n\nI believe there is a limit to the amount of rejection and failures that a man can endure without any support system, affection, help, and love. I feel I am reaching my limit.","is_bookmarked":false,"reply_count":2,"url":"/groups/mental-health-america/discussion/advice-for-next-steps-msfken/","title":"Advice for Next Steps","privacy":"public","muted":false,"cmnt_policy":"open","reactions":[{"type":"USEFUL","count":0,"reacted_by_me":false,"nicknames":[],"__typename":"PostReactions"},{"type":"THANKS","count":0,"reacted_by_me":false,"nicknames":[],"__typename":"PostReactions"},{"type":"SUPPORT","count":1,"reacted_by_me":false,"nicknames":["annamccoy04"],"__typename":"PostReactions"}],"groups":[{"name_id":"mental-health-america","group_id":200202,"name":"Mental Health America","url":"/groups/mental-health-america/","topics":[{"id":2241,"name":"Anxiety and phobias","__typename":"Topic"}],"__typename":"Group"}],"is_followed":false,"ti_followed":false,"sticky":false},{"__typename":"Post","id":"17591155778530404333","tracking_id":"17591155778530404333","slug":"disc-have-other-spouses-had-these-experiences","class":"disc","created":"2022-07-03T03:44:15Z","active":"2022-07-07T15:18:57Z","updated":null,"depth":0,"author":{"avatar":{"small":"/assets/images/you-small.png","__typename":"Avatar"},"friendship":null,"site_roles":[],"nickname":"210PolarBears","status":4,"__typename":"User"},"content":"In the last year and a half my husband finally started getting serious help for his mental health. When he first got his bipolar diagnosis, I was very relieved because it explained SO MUCH of his behavior and actions over the years that I had for so long ONLY associated with his addictions, we had gone through them all alcohol, meth, opiates, porn, and I thought finally he will get this help and things will calm down. Things didn't get better, intimacy was gone from our lives before, and still hasn't returned, constant negativity spews from him, manic highs last days, followed by lows that can last weeks, coupled with paranoid delusions that cause him to obsess over any/all personal information I could have. I receive emails informing me he is trying to access my email accounts (I have 2 I actually use, yet he has tracked down every single one I've had since I was in middle school), phone contacts, every app I've ever downloaded is checked for secret uses, and I had best have an explanation for it all. Even things he himself has done and forgotten about is something he is convinced I have done and demanding of an explanation. These invasions have landed us in quite a few arguments, since I am supposed to hand over anything he asks for to help ease his mania, yet he shares none of his own with me. \n\n2 months ago, while going through a low he either relapsed or was about too, he hasn't been very clear on this point, announced he was leaving for a month-long rehab treatment to get his meds straightened out, and the next day he was in California leaving me to care for everything on my own. Nothing has been good since he returned. Maybe one or two days in the week he is my husband that has and expresses emotion, can carry on a conversation, and wants to do things without trying to do too much. \n\nHe has a great job, but his mental health is having a very negative impact on it, hopefully he will be able to switch to a day shift, I've read that working over nights can be a lot more difficult for bipolar individuals since sleep is super important, and I've seen him struggle with first hand, but I am still afraid that termination is near, taking away health insurance we both desperately need, and the income of course, but most importantly the insurance!! I can't talk to him about my worries, thoughts, or feelings about any of these things because it \"stresses him out and makes him have a panic attack\" for days after, which makes me feel resentful and even taken advantage of. \n\nThis is how things have been not only in the last year, but for a decade. Although now I have a better face to put with the villain it has been a constant battle of up and down, paranoia, fear, hurt, anger, confusion, and uncertainty. I have pleaded for my husband's life with my husband, I have watched him try to drown everything out with drugs and booze, lose job after job, alienate family and friends, we've lost everything multiple times and clawed our way back to the top and even together, and nothing works. I question whether all of these things are really just because of the bipolar/schizophrenia or something more. If things will ever actually get better, and if he will be capable of giving me the support, I am going to need in the near future with my own serious health problem I am facing, or if it will be too much for him. How does the family of someone with bipolar schizophrenia handle all of this without crumbling themselves?","is_bookmarked":false,"reply_count":1,"url":"/groups/mental-health-america/discussion/have-other-spouses-had-these-experiences/","title":"Have other Spouses Had these Experiences?","privacy":"public","muted":false,"cmnt_policy":"open","reactions":[{"type":"SUPPORT","count":0,"reacted_by_me":false,"nicknames":[],"__typename":"PostReactions"},{"type":"THANKS","count":0,"reacted_by_me":false,"nicknames":[],"__typename":"PostReactions"},{"type":"USEFUL","count":0,"reacted_by_me":false,"nicknames":[],"__typename":"PostReactions"}],"groups":[{"name_id":"mental-health-america","group_id":200202,"name":"Mental Health America","url":"/groups/mental-health-america/","topics":[{"id":2242,"name":"Bipolar disorder","__typename":"Topic"}],"__typename":"Group"}],"is_followed":false,"ti_followed":false,"sticky":false},{"__typename":"Post","id":"14507358849641102290","tracking_id":"14507358849641102290","slug":"jrnl-a-note-i-recently-added-to-my-facebook-page","class":"jrnl","created":"2011-02-26T20:43:21Z","active":"2011-03-03T04:16:24Z","updated":null,"depth":0,"author":{"avatar":{"small":"/api/member/Chuck_Waygone/avatar/s","__typename":"Avatar"},"friendship":null,"site_roles":[],"nickname":"Chuck_Waygone","status":4,"__typename":"User"},"content":"The Title: One part of the true sadness of having suffered a Mental Illness. \r\nOne of the hardest parts for me after recovering from a bout with Severe Depression with Suicidal Ideations was being deserted by just about everyone, including some that would be called family and Christians. I’ve come to realize that in my family “water is thicker than blood” or so it seems. At least from this experience I seem to have gained a good understanding of what happens when someone finally does go over the edge and those around that person say they had no idea, the person was probably treated as I had/have been. \r\n When I was in the hospital even though I called repeatedly and wrote no one could be bothered to respond in any manner. It was getting fired up and finding my internal drive because of what I experienced as a patient in “The New Jersey Mental Healthcare System” which helped me to recover more so than any therapy that was offered. I credit my own drive with my ability to handle life fighting some depression daily and without any medication since October 2006. The side effects of the various medications were bad and I am far better off this way.\r\nThe posts involving my mistreatment in the system can be found at: http://inter-spem-et-metum.blogspot.com/ The blog’s purpose was to raise awareness of the abuses and mistreatment that can occur in the system. \r\n Even though I do basically function every day, to receive the support of simple Emails like” How are you doing?” and/or birthday and holiday wishes from the previously mentioned individuals would do a world of good, no such thing has happened at all. At least recently I did receive a holiday wish and a positive Email from other good individuals outside any family relations, which was nice. So if whomever you are who is reading this, if you know of someone who is suffering as I have or any affliction, believe me that the simple gestures I have mentioned can mean a tremendous amount. I do not think there can be any of a more horrible feeling than the feeling I have experienced which is that:” absolutely no one really cares if you live or die”.","is_bookmarked":false,"reply_count":12,"url":"/m/Chuck_Waygone/journal/a-note-i-recently-added-to-my-facebook-page/","title":"A note I recently added to my Facebook page.","privacy":"public","muted":false,"cmnt_policy":"open","reactions":[{"type":"SUPPORT","count":0,"reacted_by_me":false,"nicknames":[],"__typename":"PostReactions"},{"type":"THANKS","count":0,"reacted_by_me":false,"nicknames":[],"__typename":"PostReactions"},{"type":"USEFUL","count":0,"reacted_by_me":false,"nicknames":[],"__typename":"PostReactions"}],"groups":[{"name_id":"ifred-anxiety-and-depression","group_id":200040,"name":"iFred Anxiety and Depression","url":"/groups/ifred-anxiety-and-depression/","topics":[],"__typename":"Group"},{"name_id":"mental-health-america","group_id":200202,"name":"Mental Health America","url":"/groups/mental-health-america/","topics":[],"__typename":"Group"}],"is_followed":false,"ti_followed":false,"sticky":false},{"__typename":"Post","id":"17106971917667282997","tracking_id":"17106971917667282997","slug":"jrnl-a-way-too-long-introduction","class":"jrnl","created":"2015-10-23T00:37:20Z","active":"2016-01-07T02:00:24Z","updated":null,"depth":0,"author":{"avatar":{"small":"/api/member/Manwen/avatar/s","__typename":"Avatar"},"friendship":null,"site_roles":[],"nickname":"Manwen","status":4,"__typename":"User"},"content":"Hi, I'm new to this site and still getting the lay of the land. I don't really know what to say...I don't usually talk about the emotional effects of my injury with anyone. At least...not completely honestly. I try to protect my loved ones from having that burden to bare. The times when I do, it's almost in a clinical manner, as if i were talking about the mechanics of a car engine. That's just my own default setting, my protective wall, and I perfected it when I worked in an ER for years until I injured my back. It's how you cope and are able to keep working after seeing horrific things....you save it for later to deal with at home. Usually alone. \r\n\r\nAnyway, I kind of stumbled upon this site, and it really couldn't have been better timing. While my family is supportive and helps any way they can (and I realize just how damn lucky I am to have that), they are not dealing well with all this. It's been over 4 years, and I still have to be the strong one for everybody. Except one of my sisters. She is my heart and soul, my rock. And I am hers too. She was like a mother to me AND an annoyed older sister as kids, and we are best friends as adults. We talk almost every day, but she's on the other side of the world. Has been for almost 15 years. She knows me better than anyone in the world. I miss her, her husband, and kids with every fiber of my being. I used to fly out to visit them at least once a year, and she would come here. That way we got to see each other at least every 6 months. But I can't fly anymore, and who can afford the First Class tickets where you can lay down? \r\n\r\nSo I settle for phone conversations when we're able. She has her own life problems and busy family life. I don't always want to burden her with my problems. Because they are always there, and never seem to ease up. Who wants to be the bad news fairy all the time? Bringing sadness and sprinkling fairy pain dust everywhere..... I get tired of seeing the \"I feel so sorry for you\" look on people's faces when they look at me. Or the troubled and painful ones from family that are upset they can't do anything to change my fate. While my strategy helps protect me, and protect others from the truth of my emotional life.....it's not necessarily a good thing. I know this. It keeps people at a distance, and keeps them from really knowing my life. How do you balance that? \r\n\r\nOver the years, like many of you I'm sure, I've experienced the loss of many friends and my former work community. I don't really blame them I guess, but it's still cut a huge chunk out of my heart. The loss of a work community that I spent the majority of my nights, holidays, and life working with them for many years. I pulled away because of physical and emotional pain, depression, embarrassment, and honestly.... and I know it sounds weird, but shame. It was a work injury and therefore a Workers Comp case. And I couldn't handle the possibility of judgement from them. As if they were trying to assess whether or not my injury could be really from the work we did. They are ER workers after all, quick assessment is a major part of that job. I was also concerned that they would think iI was just trying to get money. I couldn't handle dealing with the possibility of all that, while I was in so much life-crushing pain. I didn't feel strong enough. And I felt as though our common ground was dissolving. And I hated answering questions, although out of genuine care, about my injury and health. I felt like at any moment I would break out in tears if I opened that door. And, my community being an ER one...there is a culture of \"toughing it out\". And being strong in the face of completely horrific circumstances. And I was proud that I was good at my job. I was well liked and a strong worker. I was able to be strong, and caring at the same time. I was able to compartmentalize the sad and horrible things that I saw on the job while at work, and deal with them in the privacy of my home. But since the injury, all those barriers were being broken down. And I did not want to break down in front of my work family. \r\n\r\nIn addition to all this, I was also no longer dependable. I would get invited to events and have to cancel at the last minute because I could no longer rely on my body to carry me when or where I wanted. It was maddening. I was living with my boyfriend at the time. We were very much in love, and loved going on adventures together. We had plans. We were active. Hiking, camping, road trips. We were both passionate about gardening and social justice issues. I helped he and his brothers start a neighborhood organic urban farm. It was the first of it's kind in the area to sell to restaurants. And we donated to tons of food to local places that fed the homeless. It was not all fun and beautiful times, but it was something to be proud of. In the beginning, after my injury, my boyfriend was trying to help a lot. And I was slipping into being bed-ridden because of lack or proper treatment. I didn't even know how bad the injury was. No one had fully explained it to me. Or what my future would hold. I still thought after a little physical therapy, I would be back on my feet and working. But over the course of that first year, I was losing my mind with the never ending pain. It just never let up. It was like a foghorn blairing in your ear as you're trying to have a conversation in a quiet library. I couldn't concentrate. And as naturally happens, I was slipping into a deep depression. My boyfriend tried at first. He tried as hard as he could. And I did as well. But we started to deteriorate. He almost started getting jealous that I didn't have to work anymore. Eventually, he started saying things like \" can't you just power through it?\" and other nasty things. He couldn't handle it anymore. I was losing who I used to be and becoming something else. He had always had his own issues, and I loved him so I had put up with it. We had been madly in love. And tried to help him. But after the injury, I no longer had the patience for his child-like outbursts. And he had many of them. After the injury, we lasted for two more years. And then one day, I ended it. It was the hardest thing to do. I missed him immensely. But I missed who we used to be together. Not who he had become.\r\n\r\nThe months after were horrible. I had lost my life, my work, my relationship, our home that we made together. I sunk. And I was alone. I had moved into a house on my own. I was still able to take care of myself monetarilly because I was helping my grandma daily as a kind of companion to her as she was quickly deteriorating from dementia. But 18 months later, I couldn't do it anymore. She was verbally abusive and my own health was declining. I eventually became mostly bed ridden again. All the while, trying to get proper treatment. When you live alone, not working, sinking into depression, and in pain....you start feeling like a ghost. In a few different ways. I've felt like a ghost of my former self, because I don't recognize my life anymore and can't see a future. Then when you live alone and go through the same few motions every day...open the curtains in the morning, close them in the evening. Feed the dog. Lay in bed. With not much going on in between. You walk around the house doing these things thinking, I might as well be a ghost (not in a suicidal way, but almost a matter of fact way). Don't get me wrong, those DARK days happen. You know the kind of days I'm talking about. When a conversation or even an email is too much to deal with. Days when your only saving grace is watching movies because it takes you to another world. to escape your own. And then there are the days where you can't handle the sound of tv or anything because it's too much stimulation. Good times....Good. Times. \r\n\r\n\r\nMy only treatment was, and still is, medications. I needed surgery immediately when the injury happened, but good ol' worker's comp has been dragging out everything, and denying (or flat out ignoring) all referrals to specialists. So 4 years later, I'm on minimal medications and have been in pain every single day. Still fighting my doctor to stay on the meds, as he wants to take me off them. And I, at EVERY appt, have to remind him it's my only form of treatment. He's not a pain management specialist, and has about 1000 patients between 3 different towns. I've seen him every 45 days for 3 years and he still doesn't remember me.\r\n Now I have nerve damage that affects the whole lower half of my body. And because it's been so long, it's most likely permanent by now. And surgery isn't on the table until my worker's comp case is settled. \r\n\r\nAh well, there's so much more but I've been droning on and on... if you're reading this, sorry. I haven't been able to sit and write all this down before. I guess it's more for my own mental health than anything else :) Thanks for reading.

THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. Today, on Friday, March 1, called the landlord (the wife) and politely explained no one has come to pick up the rent. I told her (because her son or husband usually picks it up) where to find it. I do not know their address as they tell nobody their address. I only know their name, e-mail and phone number. I do not want to be reported to a credit agency for being late with my rent when it is not my fault. Called my brother and he has not returned my call (he usually takes 2-3 days to return my calls). Had an experience with a landlord who refused my rent (wanted to be paid in cash, and where I had to have it witnessed by a mutual friend and a social worker) in order to force me out. I hope this scenario is not repeating itself. They refuse to give receipts, although I have a checkbook that records my checks. She promised me 18 months as this is a MEN'S private dormitory. The men do not mind (as far as I know) and treat me respectfully. I always am fully dressed in the common area. Would appreciate feedback. Should I be worried?

Ask for what you need if you want to get it.\r\nSo I've been pretty sick now for 3 years. and my family has made no secret about how my chronic diseases have ruined their lives...so, since I'm moving out of town tomorrow, I thought I'd write a letter, borrowing some phrases from another post...I meant this to be a way for us all to have closure, and to let them know, they are not needed.\r\n\r\nhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3xXvZ3f7Z1A\r\n\r\n---------------------------------------------------------------\r\n\r\nIf you want to know the truth of it...\r\nLately things are not OK. \r\nI've been in a \"flare\", in the middle of a move, and to be honest, I don't even know how to get to my new apartment...I've fallen asleep every time we've gone there!\r\nIt's little nerve racking, but I've always been good a learning on the fly so to speak.\r\n\r\nI have been wanting to have some sort of family counseling or calm discussion for some time, to get everyone on the same page, so no one feels blamed or guilty, but the idea has been rejected for various reasons, some people aren't ready, others feel that if they are not directly involved then they prefer not to insert themselves into a situation, and other people have just never been given the full picture of what's going on.\r\n\r\nI get it.\r\n\r\nHaving a sick family member is such a drag! I know this because I am that family member, and it is a drag to be me!\r\n\r\nNo one saw Chronic Diseases coming my way. Some consider my financial situation embarrassing. I get in the way of days off, I need long car rides, I have interfered with social engagements-tennis clubs, plans to go to movies, I may even cast a shadow on happy family events, and I know I am a dreaded phone call that never gets dialed, or an obligatory email.\r\n\r\nNot only have I interrupted all of you, but I have interrupted myself. I was just working with my therapist on preparing to return to work when I got sick and now these stupid Immune and Auto Immune disorders have interrupted my energy, hobbies, ability to drive, activities I once enjoyed, bankrupted my savings account and, just the plain old ability to have fun.\r\nThe interruptions continue further if we consider the hospitalizations, maintaining Health Insurance, Safe and Affordable Housing, doctor bills that are in collections, harsh medications, the SSDI system, family doubt, grief and fear.\r\n\r\nNow I know the things I just listed may be perceived by some as me being negative, because I did not counteract each difficulty with a positive, but this letter is neither positive or negative it is neutral and factual. Nothing stated here is good nor bad, it just simply is. I hope that is understood.\r\n\r\nIt was pointed out to me by a family friend that I have really taken a toll on family members, pretty much to a breaking point. I have been seeing this with my own eyes lately as well. This is not what I want.\r\n\r\nI have seen the signs of this wear and tear, and I can not offer anyone hope of a cure or consistent improvement at this time.\r\n\r\nSince getting together and having a conversation via Skype or with a therapist is not an option, let me tell you what I do want. \r\n\r\nI want you all to be enjoying your days, your jobs, your families, your retirements, your hobbies, your travels, your friends.\r\n\r\nI think you will all find this easier to do when I move tomorrow.\r\nIt's been pointed out to me, that 'out of sight, out of mind' will be better for some, and I agree. \r\n\r\nSome things are going to become less stressful:\r\n\r\nBeing further away means no one will be around for the day to day local medical stuff...(XYZ) is a small town and it seems like a quick trip to the PCP or for IV fluids just comes out, but in (ABC), these things will likely go unmentioned.\r\n\r\nI was told by a family friend that I am very close to my Hospital from where I live, and It should be easy for me to learn how to drive myself to appointments. I agree with this whole-heartedly, and this will take a big weight off the family shoulders.\r\n\r\nAlso know that I have a Power of Attorney who is in charge of my medical and financial decisions should need be, so these are less things that our family needs to worry about.\r\n\r\nI know it would be very hard for anyone in our family to directly voice their needs for less involvement out loud, so I hope knowing these things will not be asked of you any longer bring you all some relief. \r\n\r\nNo one wants to be an imposition, and neither do I...I am glad to look for new ways to take care of myself and hope that you all can resume your \"Regularly Scheduled Programming\"\r\n\r\nMuch Gratitude,\r\n_________________________\r\n\r\nThat was it...my last try at a civil Estrangement.

That's why some of you have my email, and even phone to text.... I kind of have a habit of disappearing for a time, then popping back up... And, its not an online exclusive.... All four times I've moved as an adult, it was....,well looking back, a bipolar decision.... I decided on the spot to take what I absolutely needed and left. It's just part of who Billie is.\r\n\r\nWhile I've been off line, I ended up going on the biggest vacation ever in my life. My mother-in-law bowls state and national tournaments.... This year was Reno Nevada, and she took me with. I only had to pay 1/4 of the room, 1/4 parking at airport, my meals, and whatever I wanted to gamble or spend... \r\n\r\nI spent 5 days there for $550, gambled every day, went to seven casino's, ate better than at home, lost weight, AND came home with 13 t shirts, two magnets, a cool 35 second timer, actual poker chips I dis not cash in because I'm making vest pins out of them.... Probably four or five other souvenirs, and $120... \r\n\r\nI won a lot of my money back at a black jack table... My Favorite game. I was Beat. I don't do escalators, I prefer not to take elevators, and before this trip I was on one one hour flight in a lil puddle jumper... I'll fly anywhere on a big plane.... Now..\r\n\r\n\r\nI haven't been this Alive in I can't remember when. I have no urge to gamble either. That's strange for me. I am a gambler, I could never live in a place like that. I would be gambling from a cardboard box... \r\n\r\nI got up every morning, dipped in the hot tub for 10 minutes, swam in the pool for another 20 or so, then one pain pill, and off we went. I bet we walked 30-50 miles a day. Between going downtown and up and down to our room, we were going for 14-18 hour days... I hurt bad by day 3, but I kept going. \r\n\r\nDay 3 is when I conquered the moving sidewalks, escalators, and all other motion equipment I don't like. To have dinner at the one of the two places I REALLY wanted to, an escalator was my only option... I had a shoelace get caught in the early 80's at JC Penny's, and it was BAD.... There are FAR more safety switches and gadgets today then back when life was simple...\r\n\r\nI wanted to go to CalNeva. Walked in, saw a Harley Davidson Slot, put $10 in, pulled $108 out.... I was stoked. Prime rib, choice of Potato or Rice, steamed veggies, a cup of soup, and a dinner roll, $5.99.... And it was incredible! It was at least a 12-16 oz steak, and not processed crap like you would think. \r\n\r\nI have been in a Rut since my dad, then Allen's dad passed within 18 months of each other. Now, my step dad of over 20 years has a suspicious tumor in his thoracic cavity .... But, they are waiting two months to see if it grows. It's just been one after another, and I had NO IDEA HOW SEVERE MY DEPRESSION HAD BECOME..... Until I went on vacation. \r\n\r\nI won't sugar coat it one bit. I hurt from head to toe and back again once day 2 wasending.... Even cried myself to sleep in pain... Thank God for the awesome beds!!!! And the hot tub. \r\n\r\nI thought Nevada was a legal marijuana state, but they repealed the law. I had taken about 10 joints with me... Yes, through security, on the plane, in my purse....No issues. But, once I found out It's ok to sell ass but not smoke grass, I was a little nervous about taking what I hadn't smoked through the airport at Reno. Just because Chicago doesn't bother with it, doesn't mean Reno airport would be the same. My mother-in-law, is who called and asked security if I could have it on the plane. They don't even bother with it. \r\n\r\nSo. It's my last night, and I go for a hot tub, and a swim. While in the pool, I'm trying to decide.... Throw away $90 worth of pot, or take a chance on getting it back on the plane.... When I met them. An awesome couple from Canada. They were having a major splurge vacation, and were on the 24th floor of the casino (we stayed at The Atlantis.)\r\n\r\nJust in conversation, he mentions that he couldn't \"bring anything with because of customs\"...., I immediately asked what he meant by \"anything\".... He wanted pot, and had a license..... Big help to me, and no broken marijuana laws.... \r\n\r\nWe exchanged information, and now my husband and I have an invitation to hunt moose and bear at their cabin in Canada.... They took what we didn't smoke, so I was feeling comfortable. \r\n\r\nI only explained all of that, to tell you this. I got home on the 8th, I finally unpacked today, so my girlfriend could borrow my camp back pack for her trip to Cali.... At the last second, I though, I better check these pockets, and remembered two little side pockets I didn't even check when I used it.... \r\n\r\nInside, there was an all brass pipe, called a proto pipe. What it is, is an all in one pack and carry pipe. It has a tube that you cut and pack weed in for on the go, and you take it apart to fill and use it. I had NO idea it was in there. I don't understand why I got patted down over zippers in my pants, yet my carry on had a metal pipe they didn't even see...... Yet, one girl in our party had a full purse search and pat down over a tube of quarters in an m n m tube. \r\n\r\nIt's not one of mine, its my husband's....

took me many years and fights with a few dr's and pushing hard at then some times in order to get any of my pain and health issues better. my pain level for awhile had turnn me into a real Big BXXXX even tho it is still not to a 4 some times is close. \r\n\r\nsome of you may re call about this one medication that had 3 names and they were all the same medication but there was one other medication like them but it had one thing different in it... and that release's into your body slower witch because of this I did not have the bad side affect from it any more, that is when I got the right one but the pharmay;s kept making a mistake and sending others 3 names of medication out to me. they were supose to be bringing horizant I guess I should right the other 3 names. will here is all four of them together gabapentin neurontin gralise horizant \r\n\r\n I had 3 post- I think at different times trying to figure out why I was getting the bad side affect. they kept telling me to take it longer and maybe the side affect might get better but that was only if they sent out the horizant \r\n\r\n the pharmacy kept making the mistake\r\n and giving be at diferrent times one 1 bottle then another and another making 3 bottle and kept acting like they were givineg me the right one and my head was so foggy I started takeing the ones with a different name thinking it was the right one but it was not 3 times this happen. \r\nhere the 4 name gabapentin neurontin gralise horizant \r\n\r\nit took me a long time to get the right one one reson was it is a brand new drug and I am ones of the 1st of how ever many people stating to take it. the horizant was still is so new that when they visited there site on there kind like notebook that has only medication listed on it... it did not have the name horizant and they had to look it up on there laptop and and then had to put the new medication in there notebook planner man-u-ly\r\n\r\n\r\nthen there were the to time that I mixed up with my pain patch the fental and one time I had to do with out them for about a week but the up my pill madication but that did not work very good. any way when I did get the sense it is kind of a high dose I just put the 100 patch on 1st. about and hou because it was all out of my system it hit me hard.and I had a hard time for a while and I had to fight with myselfecause I was still hurting and I have been on for so long so I am addicted to it and was wanting badly to put the extra 25 on. 3 days later when I changed the the 100 I put the 25 on two. and now that I have my pill the 10-325 oxycodone and taking the horizant witch help with the wierd neurophaty feeling I get in the finger and such and help with the nubness some with the fibro numness just wish it would help with the pain and fogg I have in my head but it does do a lot with the other medication with helping my nerve and the chronic pain I have. \r\n\r\nthen the other time I did not order my fental patches before the weeken so I would be able to pick them up till monday and then they said for me to go to a certain clinic on saturday and I did and told them what I was there for and they said they were not suppose to do that but this time the dr would write me out and perscription for just one 100 patch and one 25 patch. not a box of each but just one patch of each. \r\n\r\nI like a dope had changed my pharmacy to one closer and did not charge for deliver and it was a mistake because they would not break into the box to get a patch out of each box i made a lot of calls and found one with a couple block away there was one that would but they could not do till the next day then i thought poop i should call my old pharmacy and i did but it was to close to closing time so they would not do it. if i would have called them sooner it would have happen maybe \r\n I say maybe because the next day in the place that said they fill it on sun. the stupid dr did not put need to change every72 hour on the perscription. and they would not fill it so had to waite for monday and i dubble my dose on the pills again it took almost the hole day \r\n\r\n he had sent me and e-mail saying i could pick the perscription the next day and i had a fit I wrote him and called the office saying I had told you I was all because of the dr not filling out the perscription wrong I still did not have any. late that evening I had them and I put the 1oo but only waited 3 day to put the other 25 on I want it bad because of pain and I was and I am addicted to it to and am. but it does help with pain and even when my pain was way out of control I never mis use any of the pain medication. my ex and my IHS work as well as my roomate can tell you that.\r\n\r\nI will not ever make mistake again. \r\n\r\nthen I have tried to be on call for a few friends needing to talk witch is good for me to. some are like me having trouble trying to shut the brain off so you can relax and some times go to sleep I have trouble with that on and off but I some times have falling asleep while standing up. then my mind raceing so fast it feels like it is going to go on forever and never stop. it some times my heart goes as fast and the rest of my body can't keep up\r\n\r\n\r\nthere is good. my pain is better and at time the dumness and wierd feeling I have in my hand and toes and stuff is some what better. I have not had really much of any good news till this last medication I started on when I got the right one witch help with neurophath and fibromyaliga\r\nthat the 1st in a very long time.\r\n\r\nnow even in this one I am going to say and ask for number in your area and I hope some one is close to me, because I like to have some number I could call when there no one els that you can share what your wanting to share. the if the is some thing else other the yolo bus. that ya have to set up and appointment 7 days in advace but some times ya need to get there in a day or two. I get lost easy soI like it when a bus can pick me up in my eletric wheel chair\r\n\r\nI know there shuttle bus that pick me up to take me to bingo that just on capt ave. that number fro west sacto ca. not sacto but across the river from sacto it is 1-916 374-0200 and it is only $1.50 for a round trip that is 75 cents there and 75 cents back\r\n\r\na lot of this is already know but there not much all to tell except been trying to pray more because som friends are sure have ahard time I do not mean like 1 or two friends I think have been trying to keep up with personal message here any from 1 aday to 12. a day lot of times it dones not take more then a couple of lines. how ever there are a few people that have been writing with me and me then and it is could to vent and be upset or to just talk till there is no more times I kind fill like I am missing some thing I start to type and then I kind of dift off space like I have done at least 3 times in about 20 min.\r\n\r\nthis was going to be short but it is long and I do not fell feel like I have gave much of and update so if any of my friends what to ask me any thing about what I have been taking about to me personal\r\n\r\nI do need to say a couple more things what really hurts me is some of my friends that are going threw so much and I want to do any thing and every thing I can and 98% of the time pray is what I can do and nothing els beside listen to then when they chat threw writing or chatin on the house or cell phone some times it has been yahoo that rings.\r\n\r\nI well tell ya a couple of funny things some times things have you ever had your cell then you put them hole and then the house phones rings and before you answer the house yahoo phone start ringing and the a knock at the door all at the same time. well it took me a few min and I had to call back who had called me on yahoo. less then and hour one after each other it all happen again\r\n\r\n at the end of the day all I could talk about is all of the phones even the computer and the door being knock on an can't thing of what any of them wanted but they were all there at the same time. \r\n\r\nthen I take a bit of time to say my broken heart is still trying to mend it is not yet a year I split up from my husband. it has been a lot easy=er on my my IHS worker with is also my room mate worker and charles worker she goes into the drs with each of us her daught some times does the little cleaning and helping me with a bath. witch that use to hurt when I got the bath shower I setting on the showerchair and the shower head was spraying drops that the drops always hurt my skin it fell like being pinch or stuck with a sharp pointed point. so she started to pouring the water over me and that was no extra pain. so now I kind of enjoy my shower bath. \r\n\r\non my worse days it is not extra hard on me because I would have to ask mike to take me if I could not make and appoitment witch takes 7 days to do and if he did not want to takeme some times I said I am going to call and albulance if you do not take me. there was a couple of times he had taken me to a test or see me in the hospital if I am there for 2 or 3 day all of my healthis is easry[er on me and a couple of things I had told you about at the top I think becaude of him not knowing how negeled he was to me that I would not be here. he is a good man and can show love to animals with out any trouble but try to give me that kind of attention like just being close to me or hug me with out me having to ask him. he with out the affection I wanted and I felt at times I would die if I did not get some one to show me caring loveing friendship. wit I have here with my new friends.

I enjoy it as it is another place to meet fellow tubefeeders and I almost always direct them to Oley! :) \r\n\r\n\r\nAnyway there is a woman on there who talks about the blenderized food diet and really pushes it onto new members. I don't mind that she offers it as an option, just as motility drugs, j tubes, buttons, PEGs and various kinds of formula are options, as is bolus feeding and pump feeding. \r\n\r\nBut the way she does it often includes statements such as \"ask your GI doctor how many cans of Formula HE drinks a day and watch him turn his nose up\" and \"the body wasn't meant to live on formula\" \r\n\r\nThese types of statments make me feel very unwelcome by this woman because I have the \"gall\" to use formula and not a blenderized diet. Her statments make me feel rather inadequate, offended and like she is trying to \"normalize\" me.. \r\nSo after months of listening to her recomend the diet to everyone, I finally posted an email stating my feelings on how she promotes it. We wiill see how she responds. Here is what I said\r\n\r\nHi,\r\nI appreciate that some people can use blenderized food through their tubes, and I also appreciate that you are spreading the word, however what I object to is the way in which you do it. the statement \"the body is not meant to live on canned food\" bugs me. The body is also \"not meant to live n a tube, not meant for the use of suplmental oxygen, not meant to sit all the time.\" \r\n \r\nMy point is that I am often made to feel like having a disability including tubefed by formula is \"not normal\" and \"Not ok\" I don't come to places like this list to be reminded about how abnormal I am. \r\n \r\nI know a lot of people with G tubes who choose not to do blenderized diet for many reasons and remember for those iwth j tubes doing a blenderized diet is impossible. \r\nBy all means keep reccomending blenderized diet to people, but pleease point out is in an option just as motility drugs and j tubes are options. (yes I love my J tube but I know not everyone finds them useful) but please dont' use the the words \"our bodies are not meant to..\" becuase that wording is actually rather offensive to me. and might be to other people as well. \r\n \r\nI am very happy you have found something to work for you daghter and other people, but remember it does not work for everyone.\r\n\r\nend of email. \r\n I do hope she is open minded, But I feel a LOT better getting this off my chest so to speak. My dad is constnatly saying \"the body isn't meant to live on a tube\" so maybe I am hyper sensitive. But I think when we go to a place like this and that list we are going there for acceptance, not to be belittled.

The MD called from the NICU that he had gross blood in his stool and is anemic. So he will be getting a blood transfusion today. He has abdominal distention but his CBC and CRP came back fine, we're just waiting on his blood culture to rule out possible NEC which scares the hell out of me. Im scared out of my mind. They stopped his feedings so he is just on IV fluids (my poor hungry baby) and the MD said he may have a sensitivity to the protein in my breastmilk (They just started him on full breast milk 2 days ago) so he will probably go on just the Nutramagen.

Every morning I woke up I feel stressful since I'm so close to my wife. Today I'm feeling stressful because I realized our interactions are always healthy, even during the conflicts when I'm feeling stressed out.\r\nMy bowel movement has some problems, it took me about 20 minutes to get through. I was feeling stressful, I got that medication I took the year before. after that it still takes some time for the medication to work. I didn't let my wife know. after that I went outside into the car to have a rest. it is raining. I played some free cell but i didn't finish it.\r\nI checked my brother and mother on social media, I also returned my mother's email. Almost on daily basis I have connections with them. They don't live in this country, but social media makes it easy. I also got on facebook, post pictures and joined a bipolar support group less than a week ago, I checked their post and replied them several times a day.\r\nI sat on the chair by the front door, rain stopped, it's cool. My daughter came out and asked me to join her ticktacktoe game. I played sometime with her. After that I went to the study room, she didn't want to leave, I got her out of my room and locked the door. Then I asked an isolation question on my facebook bipolar group. It's the first I asked questions on facebook. I played some basketball then. After a while I have some thoughts about the replies of my questions. I decided to update my journal here first. I'm afraid that I might be disappointed by their replies. After all, they don't know my situation. The ideal way is to get in touch with people in regular settings. But it's difficult to let them go. I'm getting better and better. The unrealistic expectations came from father, mother, cousins, wife, friends. Maybe I should turn on the feedback here for my posts, maybe I should post some photos on facebook to my friends. Maybe I think too much. I don't know. I am afraid to face disappointment. But I can ask questions to people, no matter what they will return, it's healthy and it's normal. Maybe I could ask other questions, normal questions, for fun.\r\nI wrote some journal and sat on the chair by the front door. I saw the neighbor across from the street come back home, it's a Mexican couple with two boys, they bought some stuff from grocery stores. \r\nI took a shower, then got my daughter ready for sleep. My wife is talking over the phone with her friends, my daughter was disturbed, she came into my room. I comforted her and she went back to her room to sleep. I finished a pool table game on facebook, it's the first time. But I don't want to do it again tonight.\r\nI played three pool table games, after that I watched some 'defending your love', I'm bothered by attitude of those love advisors, they're always on the parents' side no matter what. It's like they don't support me to leave my parents. I'm not feeling accepted to leave my parents in Chinese culture. There's no acceptance in Chinese culture. I need to leave the program. My wife are watching a lot of Chinese TV programs. This makes me feel so sad, it's my family, extended family, my own culture doesn't support me to leave my parents. When I started to leave them, it was difficult at the beginning. Now I already left them. I realized that although I don't feel they support me to leave my parents to heal, they still wish me the best.

This morning I was not moving as fast as normal and my grandmother who is usually asleep in the morning comes out and starts to chat and then while I am still half dressed starts opening all the blinds in the room, I pointed out that I was not in much (I tend to sleep in my underwear and a camisole as the house gets hot) and she says the neighbors would not care. So I went and got dressed and as I am dressing she triggered the house alarm. I tend to be the one to turn it off in the morning. So I ran out and managed to turn it off before it notified local authorities. On the way into work I was nearly hit by a driver who though it would be a good idea to cut across several lanes of traffic. \nAt work I am dealing with people trying to reschedule things that they know they cannot reschedule though me, but they keep trying.\nMy mother called to tell me that she sent my grandmothers to document to the wrong email and now some unknow person has all my grandmother information and just last month she had her identity stolen and we ad to fight through that and had just just just roughly fixed it.

Just sitting here crying, and crying. Just so depressed. All I want to do is move, and I cannot. Still cannot find a place to live. Still getting the run around from organizations. All I need is their help to find a decent place to live, they keep steering me toward these high rises, that are horrible, in other words, out of the frying pan into the fire is what I would be doing if I move there. I asked this woman today, \" Would you want to live there?\" She just ignored the question. Of course not, but they expect us to, why, because we are disabled, does that make us less than other people? What I told them today is that I want to just put my belongings in storage, and go into the hospital for a while to get well, I am getting really sick. She told me I could do that, but, I won't have anywhere to go to when I get out. And that the people that give me my voucher, will not hold it for me, how rotten is that. All I want is to move, and get well, and I cannot do it. I keep praying for God to help me. I have done everything I can, I call about apartments, I e-mail about apartments, but, no one will accept the section 8 voucher, what is wrong with this country. It is called discrimination, against, anyone of a different race, nationality, or people with disability. When I was working and able to pay all of my rent, I could get any apartment I wanted, but, now that I have to use the voucher to pay my rent, I cannot get a decent, safe place to live, just because of a piece of paper?

Do I get tired? Yes Do I give up? No\"\r\n\r\n\r\n I do believe that this quote is for anyone to live by. We all face the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Life just seems to throw curves and turns each and every minute of our lives towards us and it all depends on our outlook at to how we survive. Do we get tired? Oh yeah Do we give up? No\r\n\r\nI am tired every minute of my life, no matter how much I sleep. But that is due to all of my silent chronic illnesses. But I am not going to give up the fight. I push myself each day to work full time as long as I can. (As I pray that my early medical retirement will come through sooner than later). I don't know how I keep working full time, I believe it is sheer grit, willpower and some moxie in there. Each day of my life consists of feeding tube feeds, working away from home and then going home to walk my little dog, Maggie Mae, that is my quiet time with myself and an enjoyment she and I enjoy, and then I die (Well not really die, but physically pass out).\r\n\r\nI do realize we all have different difficulties that we all deal with daily in our lives. But gosh it does appear on the outside that some people have it all together. The media paints the good and the bad and as I sit back and take it all in, I realize that sometimes I do have it better, even tho I am chronically ill on a feeding tube, there is always someone out there worse than me. And then the good that comes out from stories that makes your heart skip a beat knowing that their are good people still among the hustle and bustle. \r\n\r\nI guess the perfect world would be love thy neighbor as we would wish to be loved ourselves. Yep, that is a perfect world. But we are given trials and tests to see if our faith waivers or if we stand up and not give up. I had given up on the world and was so extremely tired of my horrible health, the loss of my parents and one of my best friends that I didn't even think about it, I just attempted suicide. So I regret it everyday? Yes. Now as I sit back and reflect on my choices back then, I was misguided by not being faithful to myself. I lost sight of giving up. Do I want to give up now? NO \r\n\r\nTrust me my depression is a true fight I deal with daily. I struggle praying cause I can't seem to keep my mind focused. So I talk to God constantly daily and he knows what is in my heart and soul. Thank goodness. But I am sure he smacks me upside my head sometimes just knowing every little thing about me. So I guess that is where my loss of words come from. But Bipolar is a real disease that many people seem to shrug off as \"Oh you just need to get yourself together and live life\". Everyday is a hustle and bustle. So anyone who doesn't have Bipolar stresses. \r\n\r\nDo I get tired? Yes. Tired of being chronically sick all the time, tired of dealing with all the aspects of my feeding tube, not being able to eat anything by mouth (and if I do I regret it), fight to get ready for work, try to keep up with some light duty chores and just simply being alive. That is my fight. Yes I am humble. \r\n\r\nHumble that God gives me a new day each time my feet hit the floor every morning. That means he wants me to keep up with the hustle and bustle each day. I question him all the time. Most people do question all the time why we face the hustle and bustle. Their are people who thrive at it. Hey my thoughts are \"go for it\". I used to live that way when I was younger and raising my 3 kiddos. Life was a challenge but I loved every minute of it. But I was healthy. \r\n\r\nAs the media is streaming everywhere that Brangelina is getting a divorce. Who really cares? Raise your hand!!!! Mine isn't. Do I feel bad for them? Yes. As a divorce' I can feel their pain and having it blow up in the media makes it even worse. I am sure they both wish the hustle and bustle of their individual lives where to be left to themselves. I am sure they are tired of it all. But I am sure they will both keep fighting for their kids. \r\n\r\nThe hustle and bustle. What does that mean to you? It can have so many meanings to so many people across the world. What if the world just stopped and held hands in unity to fight against whatever their demons are. The world could be a better place. Maybe? \r\n\r\nWishing that I was not chronically ill is something I hold my hands together and think why me? And I know most people who are chronically ill do the same thing. We will never get that answer until we pass away. However we do need to focus on what we can do to help others? It may just be a kind word, a hand written letter (not just a text or email), a phone call, any act of kindness. Because that is all we ask for. \r\n\r\nEveryday is a hustle and bustle. Do I get tired? Yes. Do I give up? No. \r\n\r\nWhat about you? Really take stock in your own life and decide what your answers would be to those two easy questions. \r\n\r\nWe do get tired and but we don't give up. Or at least most of us. Reach out, you never know, you may just save a life when you do. Because of the hustle and bustle and people being tired. \r\n\r\n Keep Smiling\r\nCarla","is_bookmarked":false,"reply_count":1,"url":"/m/Carla1967/journal/everyday-is-a-hustle/","title":"Everyday is a hustle...","privacy":"public","muted":false,"cmnt_policy":"open","reactions":[{"type":"SUPPORT","count":0,"reacted_by_me":false,"nicknames":[],"__typename":"PostReactions"},{"type":"THANKS","count":0,"reacted_by_me":false,"nicknames":[],"__typename":"PostReactions"},{"type":"USEFUL","count":0,"reacted_by_me":false,"nicknames":[],"__typename":"PostReactions"}],"groups":[{"name_id":"agmd-gi-motility","group_id":200030,"name":"AGMD GI Motility Disorders","url":"/groups/agmd-gi-motility/","topics":[],"__typename":"Group"},{"name_id":"digestive-system-disorders","group_id":200073,"name":"Digestive System Disorders","url":"/groups/digestive-system-disorders/","topics":[],"__typename":"Group"},{"name_id":"drug-abuse","group_id":200074,"name":"Drug Abuse","url":"/groups/drug-abuse/","topics":[],"__typename":"Group"},{"name_id":"fibromyalgia","group_id":200192,"name":"Fibromyalgia","url":"/groups/fibromyalgia/","topics":[],"__typename":"Group"},{"name_id":"mental-health-america","group_id":200202,"name":"Mental Health America","url":"/groups/mental-health-america/","topics":[],"__typename":"Group"},{"name_id":"g-pact-gastroparesis-and-cip","group_id":200206,"name":"G-PACT","url":"/groups/g-pact-gastroparesis-and-cip/","topics":[],"__typename":"Group"}],"is_followed":false,"ti_followed":false,"sticky":false}],"__typename":"PostSearchResult"},"__typename":"SearchResult"}}}}</script></body></html>
