I do meet all the DSM checkmarks and have for years. Maybe that's why generic psychotherapy overall has done 1. jack and 2. shit for me (can help with small individual situation sometimes but no overall changes).

I have in the past been labeled as/the suggestions have been done that I am/suffer from depressive, manic depressive, anxiety/panic disorder, Post-traumatic stress syndrom, borderline has also been suggested once or twice. I have also been said to have Asperger, an Autism-related disorder.

Two nights ago I was having to support my weight on the pharmacy counter while not looking at the lady who has never been anything but NICE to me because if I did she may have become a target, I kept visualizing throwing the hardcover stephen king book I had at anyone who came near and kicking my steel toed boots to fly off and up into the overhead flourescent lights. Usually I'm 'okay' within a half an hour's time, but I've had them drag out to be as long as twelve hours ish (not with ALL those heavy side effects for all the hours, but still dragged out).

Oh, were you born with it? If you don't mind me asking. I wish I could comfort you guys, but I am the worst comforter ever.

Selly, *hugs*
I wish I could give you a hug in real life.

Clair is not wonderful

Mmmmhmmm?
I wonder why I am donating to your cause if you're not wonderful.

Clair is wonderful and amazing.

Hey Pip.

@ Pip.. well people tend to not take what you say seriously. Like our house was broken into several times but you could not tell out right only little things were missing no one believed me and said it was paranoia from my condition and well a week later they believed me when all the big stuff went missing. they people who did it had been trying to figure out when we wern't home so they could get the expensive things.

Also most think that I am crazy and not capable of being a mother. I have three boys and they are healthy and well cared for. Having a mental illness does not neccisarily mean you can not be a good parent.

And I do not qualify for SSI even though I have it documented that I should not work out side of the home since I get stressed and can have an episode when in the public workplace. Yet a girl I know who is ADHD and perfectly functioning without medication gets a check every month, food stamps as well as medicad because of her hyperactive dissorder.

Thats a bit off in my opinion.

I also am bi-polar, slight dissasociative disorder, borderline personality and acute episodes of paranoia.

clair is on of the most wonderful she is right up there with sil! ^_^ wait clair's birthday is coming soon right? what can jo get clair for her birthday?

If you figure something out I'll donate gold so it can be from both of us.

Clair said she wanted a MAC? Or am I just being self-centred? xD

@ Jo::
You wants to give Clair a gift...? O.o

Well, the only thing Clair can think of asking for is a bit too expensive for one person to give her.

well what does clair want?

jo: dunno, but I wantz a queen crown D:

Born with "It"? Which aspect of "It" gets a different answer. I've been depressed and had suicidal ideations and such since kindergarten. I didn't have anxiety attacks start showing up until high school. (Emotional/verbal abuse from my stepmother.)

Everything didn't really come together until the stress of college and that's when I blatantly started self mutilating though I have always had a penchant for picking, cant' leave a scab alone of you paid me, did that since beforeI can remember and once my very frustrated mother taped up my hands and they were all sweaty but she was tired of me making bloody sores all over myself. It's an anxious/nervous habit that I've had the longest. Even right now there's this _one_ spot on my head that I can barely leave alone and I'm losing hair follicules on it (again)... trying to be good and rub neosporin INSTEAD of picking when I can, but it's hard... one step forward two steps back on average.

those are to expensive i am not sure if i would be able to get one!

Crow: I have the bipolar dissorder

Ah, I see. So, do you think if awareness was raised by the government, and your condition was explained properly, that people would take you more seriously?

I am sorry to hear that though, and I don't want to seem insensitive. Sorry if I am.

Just tell us what you want Clair.

I'll pitch in c: Clair.

Either the Midnight or Morning Ribbons.
They're on the last page of the Headworks.

Yep because you are love.

Clair: How much are they?

I have almost enough to get Clair one.
