Taking a break to get stable
 
Hi SR,

First off, thanks for letting me back in the fold here.

After reading some of my threads and posts, I see a pattern of total instability in my emotions and I'm leaving the boards to get some help.

Sure, it helps to post at times, but this is more than that. I'm bouncing off the walls in my head, today is day twelve and I'm not sleeping right, not eating right and going through emotions at an alarming rate, and can't seem to think straight, I feel like a target in a carnival game, moving back and forth while the crowd of emotions line up to take shots at me.

Will be back soon, hopefully better.

FS, if you're leaving to get some help, I wish you the best with that.

But don't be afraid to come back...

You weren't here when I joined, but I knew you existed 'cause people occasionally asked where you were at. I've gotten to know you here on SR--not in person but still--and I see why you were the one people were asking after. Take care, and do what you need to to get better.

-TB, worried some...

Please don't go far. I think you're totally on the right track and going through the motions. Love your perseverance!!!! Keep on keeping on!! :)

Seems to me you may be having some bad withdrawals, try a detox this time. I have heard withdrawals can be life threatening and I think maybe your body chemistry is off.

The very best of wishes to you :)

Just dont pick up FS, we will be here. Good luck with the support, I dont think you need to "leave SR" while doing so but... whatever works for you my friend.

Take Care,

NB

Do what you must, but don't leave yourself without support FS - that would be the wrong move to make right now - take it from one who's been there :)

The door is always open here :)

Without the support here, I'm sure I'd be drunk by now tonight. I need to keep checking in, so that I don't check out.

I think it is great when we can see a pattern and are willing to take action.
I reread alot of my past posts. Especially the ones when I was my lowest.
They really remind me of where I dont want to be anymore.
I know you will do well. And dont stay gone too long. :hug:
