Galkeepinon/krist????????
Please seek 'live' help.
I don't understand what pain you're going through..but this being a mental health site everyone should be treated with compassion- imo.
I 'm aware of your constant cries for help..but members can only help up to a certain point...and can be greatly affected by what you write.
Or a cry wolf thing...people may not eventually care. Or their illness intensified..
I'm probably not making sense-----I'm not against you..I sometimes feel the urge to express the way you do..
Someone wrote here somewhere--live ain't worth dying for--So there:-)
I'm willing to offer my email so you can shout at me or nice to me--I can take anything nasty or whatever--Just mere mad me...slinky

Gal,
So many people came to my aid in my time of need last week, but that's not the reason I feel the need to post this. You have been such a great contributor to these boards -- a confidant for many and a lifesaver for some, I'm sure.
As slinky said, I have no idea what you're going through right now, but please remember that each and every one of us is behind you all the way and will support you in your time of need -- we need you around here; the world needs you out there.
I've been in that dark place you sound like you're in many times before and so I'm not going to preach to you... I know what you're going through, whatever it is -- believe me. And you *know*, somewhere deep inside, that every misfortune, every obstacle, and every setback will only make you stronger in the end.
If you're considering suicide, I plead to you -- talk to someone, anyone, be it on here or in person. And even if your intent is simply to leave the board, you would be very sorely missed by so many here who find your wit, charm, intelligence, and profoundly human personality to be a breath of fresh air... and the perfect makings of a truly good friend.
My e-mail address and Yahoo! Messenger ID are both lordaadika@sbcglobal.net; my AOL Instant Messenger ID is 'Esprit Sans Vie'. Please feel free to talk to me, any time of day or night -- I'm always signed on with DSL. Hell, I'll give you my phone number if you'd like -- I just can't stand to see anyone like this, especially not such a special person.
Please, Gal -- you've quickly become a core part of our little online family... talk to me... talk to us.
Michael

Oh dear. You really are in horrible misery. In the abyss so to speak. It's wicked and terrifying down there. You're in good company - too many of us know what that feels like. Please please call your doctor, therapist, go to the hospital. Whatever it takes to help you hang on. You need a life raft to hold on to. We can offer words of encouragement and our best wishes. But please also see someone at your end. I'd like to see Gal feel better and get back to being a regular member on the board.

Folks seemed pretty much against it-even when they found out things weren't what they seemed.
That WAS you posting as your father wasn't it?
It was said to be a hoax and that statement was never refuted or disallowed by Dr Bob so I assume that is true.
Your post is very upsetting. I hope your crisis will again be successfully resolved. I thought the history of your past survival might encourage people who are upset by this current crisis.
You seem very resourceful in attracting help and I hope you will find what you need to regain your health.
I in no way diminish the extent of your pain.
Please remember to keep it administrative on this board though!

Gal/Kristen,
I know during times of stress and depression we feel compelled to do irrational things, like hurt ourselves. I have had the feeling too. You need to call your psychiatrist immediately or go to the emergency room and ask for help. I don't want anything bad to happen to you, and remember that suicide is irreversible. We all love you here and want the best for you. Please give us some type of response so that we know you are okay. Love, Elle

Whoa! What's this?? What about your 'follow up' post (which I read before I saw this)?
Sloooow down, get help in person if you need to, and let us know if these big shifts in perspective are part of your diagnosis (I don't know what your diagnosis is).
The bottom line is, in cyber space we're more spirit than corporeal. Thus, while we might want to guide you personally to a place of safety, we can't. I hope that you will do that for yourself.
Take care,
Shar

led you to feel accused. That is a most unpleasant feeling :(
Dr Bob's post led me to feel accused and I can assure you I would not wish that feeling upon another.
I hope where ever you are you are doing well and have gone on to bigger and better things than babble!!!!!
Best wishes

Brio,
I am starting to feel rather offended that you seem to think that those of us who support Dr Bob and don't voraciously disagree with his blocks are all kissy kissy.
I don't know how long you have been around here, as I believe you changed your name or something, but I remember the days before blocks and the pain I felt at being attacked. I admit the blocking process isn't perfect, but I would much rather it were this way than the previous way.
Not many people here have upset me, probably only two or three, but you are starting to upset me with the constant references to the "kissy kissy" people.
Nikki
