Simus,
Don't feel responsible for my own stupidity. I never should have mentioned where I live. I guess we should have expected that Dr. Bob would be monitoring his own board.....and I guess he thought he was doing the proper thing.
But I wouldn't recommend that course of action again. Lol. It tends to scare people away.
Don't worry, hun. You didn't know. No hard feelings whatsoever. You were being very nice to me.
God bless,
Sandy

Dear friends,
I am just sitting here in tears and horror and disbelief at what just happened to Sandy. I am the one who encouraged her to come here for help, and I am the one who encouraged her to trust us and open up. So as of now, I am officially hanging up my do-gooder hat and putting the dark veil back on.

Simus,
What the heck are you talking about??
This was NOT your fault.
I just got a little too worked up over the event. It's no biggie. All we have to do is email personally whatever we don't want the world to see.
No harm was done. Everything is fine. It was just a shock, that's all.
Come on, hun. Just laugh it off. I don't want you to feel so low over it. I'm already recovering from it. LOL!!! Something to write "Dear Diary" about. *wink*
God bless,
Sandy

Simus,
It doesn't take much to get any of us down. Please, don't let this inconsequential little event bother you. I shouldn't have come on the board right after the police left. I was upset and hurt at the time. I felt violated.
But that has NOTHING to do with you, Simus. Nobody MADE me open my mouth. I CHOSE to chat with you.
No harm was done. I wasn't hauled away to the looney bin. LOL!!! Hard time they would have had getting me to go outside in my jamies!! I would have barricaded the door!! Ha ha!!!
Listen, are you okay? I can't go to bed until I hear from you. Please don't feel bad. Nothing happened. Everyone is still the same as before. No harm done.
God bless,
Sandy

Simus, please come back. No one thinks you did a bad thing; especially not Sandy. All you are guilty of is caring.
Don't leave us now - you are part of our family, and family takes care of each other, right? Let us take care of you. ...jlynne

thanks jlynne, i actually had a fun day at work today there was hardly any customers!! ( i work at a Video store) i dont brave the theatre anymore either cause im afriad of the panic (a friend of mine named it 'the fear' its a inside thing joke thing between us, he gets anxiety too) i had to leave the theatre once because it was SOO SOO bad and i was embaressed and i cant seem to bring myself to try it again, total avoidance. The Lord of the rings, the return of the king isnt out on DVD yet but my boyfriend gets these new movies from a friend at work burnt off the internet so its all good. we watch movies at home-A LOT! its hard for me to explain my issues with him all i told him so far is that i am depressed and when its bad i get socially uncomfortable...as time goes on between us im sure i'll be able to open up more, im just really scared of what he will think. my stupid insecurites, i always to to play off as the 'strong one' like i used to be, its hard to admit that at times its so hard to be in control(especailly when you suffer anxiety).
anyway enough of me blabbering on, i read stephen king too both of those titles actually but my favorite is Anne Rice (she wrote Inteview with the Vampire) i love her style its almost romantic.:P
i occationally get a little sensitve around this time of the month but never that bad, i just thought maybe i can feel these symptoms more cause my brain is supposed to be working better(not sure if it is yet, lol), i almost cant wait til my dose is upped, 2 more weeks till the p-doc, then im sure he will up it, at least to 10mg.
So it was a little weird at your brothers eh? its always hard meeting people esp when they stare at you! lol. Im sure they were very happy to meet you, you are a wonderful lady with a BIG heart.
anyway i hope your week off proves to be relaxing and rewarding, its always good to spend time with those you love.
talk to you soon, sweet dreams

Simus,
I've had a look over your shoulder, and you know what? That black veil looks really atrocious on you!! Auck!~
Hey, that do-gooder hat laying in the corner would bring out the beauty of your heart. Put that one on!!

Sandy, Simus is probably away from the computer having a good cry. She will come back, because she cares about you and she will want to know if you have posted again.
I'm sorry things had to happen the way they did, but it will all be okay, in the end. Everything has a reason.
I will stay up with you and wait for Simus to respond:)

Hey there,
I have to get up in 5 more hours. Those lovely policemen pick the best times to come a-visiting, don't they? Maybe I should return the favor to them. Ha!
Are you sure she is okay? I feel so bad that all this happened. She wasn't at fault. And I should have just gone back to bed.
Gosh darn it, I feel responsible for her hurt feelings. She has such a big heart, and I managed to stomp on it in my few hours of knowing her. *smirk* Can't have too many friends like me! Lol.
I really need to get to bed or noone will be getting up in the morning, since I'm the official alarm clock around here.
I'll check back later in the morning. It's 2am here now.
God bless,
Sandy

It is only 10pm where I am, so I can stay up quite awhile longer. You get some sleep; it has been a rough day for you.
May the peace that passeth understanding pass over your spirit as you rest tonight. ...jlynne

You are not wrong for trying to help another person, you like so many of us here are one of the few people in this world who care enough to reach out and help somedody else, this is one of the best traits anyone could have. Please dont leave us now, i dont quite know what happend with Sandy and the police but she wants you to come back too. Its not your fault sweetie, please say you'll stay.
and Sandy im sorry this happend to you tonite i hope it didnt frighten you too much although i can imagine it must have been very embaressing and startling.
Its just that we are concerned about you even if you understand it or not, we are all concerned about eachother and its like we all offer shoulders to eachother to help us through and IT DOES help, at least for me...
i hope tomorrow brings better things for all of us
Goodnite

When were you going to take a walk? You do *not* have to carry this alone.

Simus, I hope you are okay, wherever you are. I am going to go to bed now, but others will be getting up soon on the east coast. We all care about you very much, and we are all very anxious to hear from you. You have been here for so many people, please let us be here for you now.
God bless you and keep you in His arms tonight. ...jlynne

In reply to DR. BOB and friends, posted by SandyWeb on March 22, 2004, at 22:41:21
sandy,
It is good to hear you are fine. :)
communicating by just written word, can often lead to a wrong conclusion. Because in this form of communication you don't have the visual physical clues you get when talking directly to someone. ( I personally know this because last week I wrote a memo at work and others read it as sarcastic.. when that was not my intent..written communication it indeed tricky)
I am not defending anyones actions, but it is always better to err on the side of caution, when
you believe ones life maybe at stake.Also perhaps leagally, as he does run the board i believe and as a Doctor, who has taken an oathe.. maybe Dr. Bod had no choice, but to act as he did.
What I would try to look at as all the love and support the people here have for you..and how wonderful that all is.
and again, I am glad your doing better.
and i hope you continue to reach out and get more help ..so that life can be a wonderful thing again.
Peace123

Dr. Bob,
Thank you for getting back to us. I appreciate that.
I had a long cry in bed last night. I was not "embarrassed" or "ashamed" by the police showing up. I felt betrayed and threatened. And I certainly didn't want my kids to be aware of any of this happening with their mum.
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?
Just no more surprises, please. They make me feel lousy. Lol.
Sandy

Simus,
It's another day. Where have you been? Everyone is worried about you, hun.
I'm actually going back to bed this morning. The kids and I didn't get much sleep last night, and the morning is too bright. Lol! I'll be back later when I catch a few more winks.
Don't be sad, Simus. You're not responsible. You really are not!
Hugs,
Sandy

Hey Ya'll
I know you feel violated right now.I know you are probaly upset with Dr. Bob for taking action but it is actually his leagal duty. A Dr. or a thereapist is by law made to report any threat made by a person to harm themselves or another or harm being done to them. Though it may be passing thoughts, Sandy said a lot of things that made all of us think she was going to harm herself. She also made it sound as if her children were being neglected. Dr. Bob was just doing what he professionaly felt was just. Sandy I wish you could have been warned before some crazy police pounded on your door and your privacy was blown to bits, but you did have all of us really worried about your life. Even if this has been a bad experience, you know that people care about you that much.
Also, Simus. You did the right thing by asking Sandy to talk to us. We are a family and want others to be able to experience that. You did nothiing wrong and should not blame yourself. You are a great family member and it would be a terrible loss if you left us. We love you and think your do gooding heart is much more attractive then a black veil... how 1980s Madonna can you get, are you wearing lace black gloves as well? LOL. Come back.... we miss you!
Love and Blessings,
Lexy
