From a cold start

[eliade]

I came and then went away again for a while--I was mid-breakdown, mid-fall. I'm not sure if I landed at rock bottom, but close enough

You're quite brave for writing about this. I don't know how to respond right now, but I wanted you to know that I'm listening.

*hug* Thank you. :)

Oh my goodness. Anna, I had no idea you were going through all this. "I'm sorry" sounds terribly pale and inadequate, after all your evocative words. But I am sorry.

I am glad you have shelter, and have a doctor's appointment. I am glad you've found the help you have, and sorry for the indignities that come with needing it.

(((hugs back))) :)

I am so very sorry about all that you've gone through. I know you through your fic and it's so intelligent, so insightful and poetic that it makes me want to scream at a world that's left you in this place.

My library here in Ontario has wi-fi and no restrictions at all on who can use the washrooms. Is that the case in Seattle? Libraries are nice places to spend time, very peaceful.

Sending love and good thoughts your way.

The library here is similarly set up--if it weren't for a constant need to mainline Diet Coke or coffee I'd probably be there right now. :) Thank you for your thoughts!

I am sorry for your situation, but I'm glad you are in contact with people wh can help you with shelter and medical care.

What can WE do to help you?

It's just nice to post and see responses, even if I don't get back to them right away--it makes me feel not so alone, and plugged into a community of some kind. *hug*

*squeeze* Thank you. (Also, I love your icon. I think I find myself saying that to you 10 times more than anyone else. ;)
