Apparently, Dr. Bob sent them out again. This time the 2 cops sat with me for quite some time, trying to decide what to do. I was a good girl, though, and they couldn't find a reason to haul me off.

I guess they had been looking for me earlier in the day. Then they went to the apartment office and stated they needed to find me on an urgent matter. THEN they called my next of kin, who is my mum. Scared her half to death.

The police said that if they couldn't find me, they were going to put out an all-points-bulletin for me.

Is this over now, Dr. Bob? I would like my privacy back again.

Sandy, did they actually say that Dr. Bob sent them? I could be that it is their policy to follow up on something like this??

Do you know how to post to the Psycho Babble Administration Board? You might get a faster answer from Dr. Bob that way.

I'm so sorry you are having to go through all this. Were your children there this time? Is your mother all right?

Are YOU all right? My heart goes out to you. ...jlynne

Yes, it was from Dr. Bob. They showed me his email and letterhead. And it was a different message that I had posted from the message shown me by the night policemen.

Yes, the kids were here but I just asked them to go to their bedrooms.

My folks are okay NOW. They fretted all afternoon, and were in the process of changing their plans for tomorrow.


Has anyone heard from Simus yet?

> Some people just don't want to be saved, when there really is nothing else. But I'll tell you what. When (or "if") the time comes for "that walk", I'll give you a heads up. How's that?

> Is this over now, Dr. Bob?

It would be great if you'd let us know, but what if that meant more police? I hope you understand if I worry about you deciding you'd rather not be saved...

Are you sure? I only sent one message.

Sandy, I have checked all the other boards periodically, and I have not seen Simus posting on any of them. I'm not sure what to think.

She seems to be a very spiritual woman, like yourself, so I am hoping that she has someone from her church to turn to.

And I want to add that, in spite of all the commotion you had to endure last night and today, I am sure glad that you are all right. (I would have thought that that was made clear last night, though!) You seem to be taking all of it very well, and I look forward to seeing more of your sense of humor in the future. God bless. ...jlynne

Good golly, don't everybody all get in a tither here.

I'm fine. I'm very, very, very tired......but I'm fine. I could drop on my feet right now. I'm all tuckered out.

I hope nobody minds if I go to bed early tonight.

Please don't send them again, Dr. Bob. I'm too tired to deal with them right now. I just want some quiet.

Thank you.

Hello everyone...Not feeling well tonight ...Did have my root canal and have a terrible migraine and very anxious and depressed...The posts seem to have gotten a little out of control in here...It is very upsetting...I feel that the way the letters were going and the things that were being said at that time everyone was sooooo upset and we try to come to these posts to get comfort and try to figure out how to get through a hard time..we are trying to help people...Helping people is trying to figure out when there is a crisis and from the sounds of those posts there was definately a crisis and there were things being said that any person would be worried about and we all were..Mrs C.. was worried...Em was worried we were all worried...It was very scary and to feel guilty about caring and wanting to help someone is not what I came to the posts to do...

Dr. Bobs job is to monitor what is going on and to make sure things are ok and everyone should know this when they begin posting...So to blame him for reacting to a situation is very harsh...He did what he thought again because of what was said in the posts It was scary...To continue to write his nasty posts and questioning him I think is wrong...

I guess I am going to take a break for a bit I guess I'm just a little confused as to what to do when a situation like this happens..I know that I wouldnt want to be the one saying shoulda coulda woulda...

I'm sorry just was feeling upset about all the posts and wanted to get it off my chest...I'm anxious and very emotional about it I had a very very close friend commit suicide and will never forgive myself for not knowing or doing something just thought she would come out of it as she always did...now her son will never ever know what a wonderful special person his mother was...

I hope that everything settles down and gets back to normal..I'm just not getting any comfort from the posts and might take a brake...I hope everyone feels better soon and take good care of yourselves....Your friend Mystic

mystic, i understand. as much as i wish the best for sandy and everyone, i am not in a state now where i can help someone with a situation like that. i love to discuss how everyone's doing on lex and i will continue to do that, you are all godsent, but i do not feel equipped to deal with this situation and it very much increased my anxiety today. sorry to anyone that might be offended by this. i'll still be around and you all have helped me more than you know, but i will no longer be commenting/replying to the bob/sandy/police situation. i hope you all understand.

Emily I certainly understand. I also am in no position to help someone out. I can pray for her and hope she is okay. I really do hope she is okay.
I am having alot of anxiety today and nervousness. I am on day 20 of 10 miligrams of lex. I hope that it gets better soon. The depression is going away, thank God but the anxiety and nervousness isnt. I am not gonna give up on this yet. I have an angel helping me. She has been a God send. Thank you angel!!! : ) Oh by the way the angel is Mystic.

 

Too much Drama

Hey Ya'll
This whole situation has gotten out of hand. I mean, until yesterday we were a supporting family to each other now we are all leaving the board because it is not helping us but harming us, making us worry, ect. This is really sad to me. I hate to see it go this way. Maybe we could just move on from the whole situation and get on with our postings. If we see something that seems to be anxiety/depression provoking either state so or or just do not read. I would hate to see our little group fall apart but I feel this is the way its going.
God Bless if I do not hear from you all again,
LExy

lexy, i agree. i wasn't saying i was leaving, just that i'm not equipped to deal with a serious situation involving someone who needs more help than i can give on this board. i really hope to continue posting with you, mystic, susie, mag, kathryn, lynne, etc...i just cant deal with the other situation.
i'm still here, anxiously pms-ing as before :)

Girls, I understand. I have worn out my welcome, and I can appreciate that.

Thank you for taking a chance on me. I didn't expect that when I first posted in the other room, and it was good to write a few things out.

You are all very strong, and you have a wonderful connection with each other. I hope that you all get back together again the way it was before I entered the picture. Who knew I could destroy something so quickly?

I'm going to disappear now. It's all just too much.

God bless,

Sandy,

If I am brave enough to post my e-mail address, will you write me? I have some info for you on a good church in your area. I could use a friend right now too, and I know you will understand.

To all of the wonderful people here,

I am sorry for the mess I caused. And yes, I DID cause it. I had some time away to think about it, and it was very foolish to pour my heart out for all to read on cyberspace. The Bible says, "Only a fool utters his whole heart." It was even worse for me to encourage someone else to do the same. Again the Bible comes right out and says that we are to mind our own business. I have trouble with that one sometimes. Thank you for encouragaging me to come back. But I do not have the training to counsel or to give advise on medicine. And as I said, I have already given way, way too much info about myself already. God bless. May all your tomorrows be bright, and may you have the desires of your hearts.

Simus

 

About giving out email address

1) If posting your real email address is uncomfortable, you can get a free anonymous email account & new address from yahoo. Lots of people here do that. It's pretty easy to set up. You could pick a name like SimusBabble and the last part would be yahoo.com. But, you'd have to be willing check 2 email accounts.

Here is the url for setting that up...

http://mail.yahoo.com/?.intl=us

2) Also, when you post your new email address, don't type it like you usually do. Type it in plain text like this:

whateveritis at yahoo dot com

See what I mean? As oppossed to whateveritis@yahho.com

This will prevent you from getting a lot of junk mail at that address. Spamers look at boards like this for addresses to use.

Simus, Don't do that. This was a very difficult situation. When someone sounds as suicidal as Sandy sounded those first few posts I wanted to send someone to her house. Intervention isn't always pretty but in the long run it is what the person truly needs. Whether she wants to believe it or not, she is in a crisis and her life is in danger. Sandy needs to check herself in to a hospital and quickly! You were being a wonderful and caring person and I hope that you continue that course. Life is precious! God put us here to help eachother even when it isn't popular to do it. I hope that Sandy continues to post here and talk with us but she really needs professional help. Mrs. C

Hey you guys, Feeling like the lex is not working around your time of the month is a common occurence among us veterans. It prompted me to increase my dosage. Just a thought. Mrs. C

Mystic, I completely understand how you are feeling. I have very mixed emotions about it too. I respect Sandy's need for privacy but on the other hand her posts clearly implied that she was planning suicide. I went to bed sick to my stomach that night. I think that Dr. Bob did the right thing by calling the police. Once you kill yourself, you can't change your mind.

My personal email address is pamandart@verizon.net. I really would like it if you and I could still chat even though you feel the need to take a break from the board. You need your "e friends" this week. I know that the shower is Sunday and I want to be there for you. I hope that you are feeling better today. I have some issues I would like to discuss with you too. Please email me if you want to. See Ya. Mrs. C

Emily, I do understand. Some of you are trying to recover from some very emotional problems in your own lives and come here for SUPPORT! Giving it is great too and you all do a wonderful job of that. But Sandy's situation is beyond the realm of what we can do on this board. She needs professional help and I hope she decides to get it. In the meantime, I am open to talking with her here because I feel that I am in a place in my life where I can support her. Not all of us are and that is okay. Looking forward to your continued posts. Mrs. C
