Thanks to people who responded to my last post. I know most people would much rather read about something interesting and witty, but my life has been neither lately ( Read more... )

I wish I could disagree with a single thing you have said but I can't. I'm a Canadian and its the same up here and I think I've figured out why it is the way it is.....and its pretty simple really...

If we don't work then the government can't make tax money off us - and instead have to PAY us so we don't go around breaking into other people's homes so we can feed our kids or ourselves. If they don't have some kind of social saftey net in place then its going to be France in 1789 all over again! and governements hate anarchy coz the end result would be the same - annihilation of THEM....

Also don't forget the ridiculous profits that are made on the backs of the working poor - these dudes wouldn't be able to fill the tanks on their yachts if it wasn't for us.....

I sympathize with your plight and wish I had some wise words to help you but if you can find a little bit of gratitude for what you do have then the rest might come a bit quicker - I know it sounds corny but it does work....

Take care and I wish you all the best all the

The psychiatrist said the bipolar and the fibro go hand in hand, one feeds the other.
Until I get the bipolar under some sort of control and get rid of some stress, he told me to expect more flares.

I have a lovely doctor who is somewhat anti pain meds too, so hurray for that. I'm tired of begging her, frankly. The shrink said to tell her next appt that I need to break the pain cycle because its making the bipolar worse and vice versa.
Neurontin works fine, but I haven't been able to get her to give me any and I've taken most of Phil's old prescription.

I think it's time to carry one and whine like a little bitch (be all sad eyed, sweet and pathetic, in other words) until the system gets tired of me being a sad wubbie and does something.

We've been as poor as you're feeling and it's enough to drive anyone crazy when you really look around at the haves. The best we could do was offset what we couldn't give our kids, by trying to give them something of more value: ourselves ( ... )

I dislike religion that glorifies suffering myself. All it ever did was make me cranky ( ... )
