Hey Jlynne..thank you soooo much you are the best you always know just what to say and you are always there for everyone..you are truely an angel...I took the 15mgs this morning and then went to arobics so it was ok..I'm going shopping with my daughter in a little bit something I hate to do but she needs to get some clothes to fit her before she starts to think about her old ways...She has done such a great job and she has lost so much already so I dont want the eating disorder to take over which I'm confident that it wont she is soooo happy with Ryan and she knows with Nursing she has to eat right so I'm not seeing that as a problem.
Keith might have Hep A because of some food that he ate think it might have been subway so he is getting tested for that they should find out today or it could be his gallblader they are not sure so she stayed with me last night which was great...Afraid to ask if she is staying again tonight dont want to be disappointed if she isnt and it would be great because hubby is going away overnight and could use it with my increase..But we will see and I know that I have all of you and that is such a comfort...
Jlynne you should look to yourself and see what a wonderful person that you are and we are so lucky that we have you..You continue to help Sandy and you are always there for her and you still check in and give great posts when we need it..You are truely a wonderful person and I truely hope that you realize it..Thank you for everything will keep you posted during the day...Luvya Heidi

Hey Jlynne.You are so right about the extra person to worry about...mel isnt going back to work until august and I'm already tweeking about babysitters and everything else...I was telling the dr yesterday that I just have such a hard time with worrying about everyone else and not enough about myself..hhahaha I feel like I have to save the world..and I think that with all of us it is the same we think and are better to everyone else in our lives than we are to ourselved...you are so intuitive..thanks..Mystic

Hey, I'm up now (*smile*). I slept in today (it is 11:20 a.m. here) - - I guess I needed to catch up. Nice not to have anyone around nagging me to get out of bed:~)
Mystic, you sound a little better today, but you didn't really say(??). I am so proud of you for taking that leap and increasing the lex today.
Now, I am a little confused . . . is Keith Ryan's daddy?? and they all spent the night last night?? How nice to have them all under your wing (*BIG smile*). I love it when my kids bring their families to stay the night - - it is one time that I know they are safe and I don't have to wonder:~)
Well, I better go get something done or I'll find myself without clean clothes to wear!!
Good luck, mystic - - I will check in again later.

Hi, Mystic . . . sorry you have a headache, but thank you for being honest; I know this is no fun for you. One day when we are all in babble heaven, we will look back to see where we have been, and this will be a very small piece of our lives by then . . . but we will have each other to remind us of how bad it was and how nice that it didn't last forever.
And I am sure that they will have the best champagne in babble heaven, so we can all raise our glasses together and be thankful for the yo-yo sistahood:~)

Ah Yes Jlynne that sounds wonderful and I truely believe that is going to happen to us...we need it to happen to us...!!!!...That is why I try to stir things up sometimes in here to get everyone to keep in touch I wouldnt like it at all if we lost touch with one another just because we feel better...How is your day going?...My daughter is going home her boyfriend doesnt have hep A he has iron dificiency anemia which we will have to have the baby checked also to see if he has it as keiths father has it also so it is something with the blood will look more on the computer to get more info..
I'm feeling sad because she is leaving and scared to stay alone as my husband is gone for the night but I cant let her know that or she would stay and her place is at home..It if weird because I know that she wishes that she still lived here and that she never moved out in the first place I think that she realized that as soon as she moved out of the house..You know how they are about I'm going to make it on my own..and in some ways she is just that inocent little girl of mine and I would do anything to protect her..but she is a mother now and she has to make her own way and she will..but breaks my heart...
well my friend tell me how you are doing and I will catch up later..are you on 20 of lex or 10 hard to keep up with everyone..thanks for keeping in touch to day it means a lot to me ...Your friend Mystic

. . . want me to bring you anything?? LOL
I will be gone for a bit, but I wanted to answer your last post before I leave.
I am on 10mg lex now - I went up to 15mg but was way too tired on that dose, so I went back down. You probably won't experience the fatigue that I did at 15mg; I would think your anxiety would counteract that. But my problem being depression, it is a different experience for me.
I am feeling pretty good today; it is my *vacation* day without lex. But I still don't seem to have accomplished much today - other than my laundry. I envy you with the nice weather - I would like to be out in my yard today, but it is a little on the cool, cloudy side here. Ah, well . . . maybe tomorrow.
I'll check in when I get back from the store. Do you have a cat or a dog? My cat has saved me from being too afraid of being alone at night (weird, isn't it? . . . like she could actually *protect* me or something! LOL) I guess it's just having another living being in the house; gives me comfort, anyway.

Hey Jlynne..thanks for checking in...I was worried about everyone talking so much about fatigue...I was tired today but it was really hot out and we did shopping and that always makes me feel like poop...But with the anxiety I suspect that I wont get the fatigue...
I do have a dog he is a golden retreiver/yellow lab mix he is a great dog unfortunately he is 11 years old and their life expectancy is about 12 so dont even like to think about that...But he is with me tonight and that is good I always count on him to take care of me....But I also have mace and I take my celly to bed with me and I keep the tv on all night.hahhaha so I have enough I think..hhahah
Well I'm reading a little tonight and going to go and journal it has been a couple of days...Not good...
I will check in later..thanks for the company...Luvya Mystic

Well, I had a rather productive outing . . . I went to Radio Shack to make changes to my cell plan and ended up with nationwide calling, unlimited mobile to mobile, and a brand new FREE cell phone . . . and it is all for the same rate I was already paying! /\/\/\happy dance/\/\/\
Mystic, I am glad to hear you have your doggie with you tonight. I used to have a black lab named Jake, but you are right, they only live to be about 12yrs. He hardly ever barked, but when he did you knew it was something important, so he was a real comfort to have in the house (yes, he was an indoor dog - I am a pushover:~)
I have been considering being a foster parent for the local animal shelter after Rosie, my kitty, dies (she is 15yrs). That way I can have the company of an animal but with the understanding that I am just babysitting until they get adopted. That way I won't get attached and have to go through the pain of losing another animal. Plus, it will give the shelter room for one more animal to take in.
You are probably either in bed, or on your way now, but I will be around if you get lonely (it is only 8:45 here).

I am doing very well, Mystic. Thanks for asking. But "well" is a relative term. I don't feel like a teenager again, or even a twenty year old. But I am enjoying life for the first time in years. That was a HUGE deal for me. I still have health issues, and a weight issue thanks to SSRIs, but at least I am up to facing them now.
Maybe this increase will go smooth for you. I am praying it will. I am so proud of you for taking that first step of increasing your dosage. It takes a lot of courage. I do understand what you and the other YoYo's are going through, and sometimes it just rips at my heart. But I made it around the bend, and I believe there is hope for everyone if they just don't give up. Keep us informed on how you are doing.
God bless.
