I am down

Question:

Anna, I’m sorry you’re having such a rough time… it’s going to get better. I completely understand what you mean about feeling lost.

Yes ‘we’ can feel like that huh ? You should know better than to apologize for whining…  :)

Sorry ;-) )) Sending you strength and love, Brooke

Thank you dear one Love Anna

Response:

Hi Matey.. I am so sorry that you are feeling this way. Forget about the promises and cancellations. I know that you and Marjo are very good friends and I am sure that she will understand. Good friends do not "get lost". Think of how worried I was about the latest email to you. You are my good friend and still are. I understand the fear of losing a friend. Just be honest with her and tell her how you are feeling. Remember you do not apologise here!!  I wonder who taught me that one.;-)

Who who ????? ;-) ) I wish so much that I could be there for you right now but just remember that you have a lot of people who love you very much here at ASAP. Not the same as in RL I know but please use this NG to carry on venting how you feel.

Yes it would be great sitting together and cry,laugh and well just ‘be’ together. Who knows what the future holds for us :-) Sending lots of hugs to you Anna.. Love Carol..xx

Thank you friend :-) Love ya Anna

Response:

Anna, sorry you’re feeling down, but if it’s because of a difficult time in the friendship, maybe you could reflect that friendships constantly go through all kinds of stages and difficulties – in a way, that’s what they’re all about. I’m sure this difficult time will soon pass,and Marjo will realize that her role is to support you, and her, too, through the anxiety, so you can be her friend. And if she doesn’t realize it right away, maybe you can tell her? -David-

Allways glad to ’see’ you and read your input :-) Big kiss from Anna

Response:

Sorry your not doing well.. Lots of hugs and love, Jeff..:-)

Thank you Jeff I was in need of that :-) Big kiss Anna

Response:

Hi, Anna, Sorry you are having a rough time.  I wish I could just stop by and give you one big hug…so here’s the best I can do ((((((Anna)))))) Philip said something that I totally agree with, "What about *your* problem with *your* disorder?" – goodness this is something we never asked for and certainly wouldn’t want to wish upon our worst enemy. Explain to Marjo that you can only commit so far and sometimes you do choose to cancel instead of putting yourself in a situation you are not up to. Sending strength your way!!! smiles, Elise

I also am having a ‘out of control’ period of obsessive thinking. Ack! And to top it of,my best friend Marjo called and said she want to talk with me. She has a problem with my disorder.

Response:

Hello friends,

Hello my friend.. There is so much going on in my life. And it is getting to me. I feel down,not something I have that often. I also am having a ‘out of control’ period of obsessive thinking.

I hear you..please try to take a breath and step back for long enough to look at *what* you’re thinking. What are you telling yourself over and over ? **Write it  down** …look at it, and attack it, refute it with arguments…whether you can *believe* those arguments or not, right now. We take the blame and attack ourselves out of habit, like we’re not good enough…well we *are* good enough. We are very hard on oursleves, and we don;t need to be. And to top it of,my best friend Marjo called and said she want to talk with me. She has a problem with my disorder. Something I most certainly play a role in.

Maybe you don;t play a role in it  at all ! Maybe *she* has come up with some angle on it that is not related to anything you have done  / not done ? Why *must* it be your fault ? I promissed too much and cancelled too much.

Do you *know* this or are you assuming ? Has she told you this ? Maybe she expects too much…wants to much. I feel really lonely. And that is also something I seldom have.

I know this feeling…I’m sorry you are having such a hard time ATM.. remember that it will end…you will regroup, my friend, this is temporary. Sorry for whining,I just feel so lost atm.

{{{{{{ Anna }}}}}} Take care of yourself…you’re worth it.. Pete

This is such a lovely thing to say It brings tears to my eyes. I feel really lonely. And that is also something I seldom have. Sorry for whining,I just feel so lost atm. I am so sorry… We are all here for you!

Yes and it makes all the difference today :-) – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – Kisses from Anna Philip

Response:

Dear Miss Anna, I`m sorry that you are going through so much lately. It saddens me that Marjo can`t accept you for who you are, disorder and all. You are much more than your anxiety, you are such a warm, compassionate….lovely person. If it was a physical disorder that was the cause of you having to cancel appts, would this even be an issue with her? Perhaps she wants to talk to you for other reasons. I understand the pain of not being understood and judged for something that is not your fault. Just remember all your friends here at ASAP that love and understand you. {{{{{Anna}}}}} Jackie

Dear jackie,I am so glad I posted. Today you guys make all the difference. I do cry,but also feel ‘me’ again :-) It is such a nice thing to have people who see beyond the disorder ! Love ya girl Anna

Hello friends,

Hello, dear Mis Anna! There is so much going on in my life. And it is getting to me. I feel down,not something I have that often. I also am having a ‘out of control’ period of obsessive thinking.

Ack! And to top it of,my best friend Marjo called and said she want to talk with me. She has a problem with my disorder.

Hm…. *she* has a problem with *your* disorder? What about *your* problem with *your* disorder? She should know better. Something I most certainly play a role in. I promissed too much and cancelled too much. My motivation never the less was allways ‘The fear of losing her’

If you behave like Miss Anna you shouldn’t lose anybody and anybody you might lose would *not* be a real friend. I feel really lonely. And that is also something I seldom have. Sorry for whining,I just feel so lost atm.
