That's how long it's been since I had a drink. Yippee today my eyeballs finally don't hurt but I am still a little off in body and mind. I have a moment of feeling great and then many moments of tiredness. Just thought I would share because it makes me feel connected to others. By reading some of these blogs it's amazing how many people share what I have and am going through.

Hold onto that connection for all it's worth, never let go. I've heard the worst is over after about 5 days, but everyone's different. It sounds like you're doing well and I'm glad you're sticking with it. Please keep us updated on your progress.

Hi mems. You brought up one of the things I love about SR, posts can keep on giving. Once I share my Experience, Strength and Hope (ESH) others may get something from what I wrote. I feel the same way about posts that others have written. Including yours.

I hated that eyeball pain, and the feeling of being tired. Most of all, I love reading what others who have been in similar situations have posted. It is so important to know I'm not alone in feeling the way I do.

Welcome to SR!

For your support. I have a question. I find it a little hard getting around this site. If I want to reply to more than one response how do I do that. Also I do not see my name on the members list. Am I guest. I do have a user name and password and am logged on??? Thanks Oh and how do you chat with others

You sure are a member. I just clicked on your public profile. The "member directory" is a database so I have no idea why you aren't in there. Maybe the database is down, or no longer used. It was so hard to find anyone through the alphabetical listing, I always use the search function. When I put your user name in the box, it does show up

When I want to reply to more than one person, I hit the "quote" button on each post and make separate reply posts as long as I don't reply to 10 posts at once. If I feel I need to make that many replies, I don't 'quote' but summarize each post. Others may have other ways they quote many posts at once.

I believe Chat is down for now. I will ask an administrator. They are the ones who have names in Dark bolded blue with a slant. Their names are Doug and Morning Glory.

Hmm, I see your name on the members list just fine. To reply directly you can use the quote function, from there I just copy-cell if I want to reply to multiple users. To chat privately you can click on a members name and private message them, but unless I'm mistaken you need to have a certain amount of posts yourself before that function can be used. Maybe it's 10 posts?

Seems to me like you're getting around just fine.

Thanks Astro, I forgot all about Private Messages. You need to be a member for 24 hours and have 5 posts. Mems, you have met both those limits so you can PM.

Yes, the chat room is down.
