I need a Feng Shui miracle worker, and soon!

The qi in my room is all wrong. It makes me feel crappy just having been here for ten minutes. Okay, so maybe it's because I'm playing my "depressive" music. But I think there's something wrong with the room in general. The only thing that makes me happy is the cereal-scented plug-in. Something must be done ( Read more... )

Dear Kristina... anonymous March 13 2003, 18:08:28 UTC
My heart aches for you. I am not positive, but I believe that I never had the opportunity to meet you...but the beauty in that is that each and every one of us shares a bond in the human experience. We all know pain, happiness, fear, hope, and hopelessness. I may have never had the opportunity to meet you, but I have to say to you that I would have done anything to help you ( ... )

To you, Kristina anonymous March 13 2003, 19:59:45 UTC
Writing this, I wish it could be done eloquently and carefully, but I fear my words will be blunt and hard. I am afraid of what was going through your mind, and I am afraid that something could have been done, even though nobody could have known for certain. I am afraid for your family and friends, and I am afraid for those of us dealing with guilt, the guilt of not knowing, not caring, or caring to know you at all. I am afraid for the truth. It is not okay to run away from your problems, your choice was not the answer. It has created more pain for those whom you were dear to, and believe me, there are many. I fear for my friends who found you and how your image will be branded in their minds for eternity. No one can really know or understand. I am afraid for the feelings I have, and that I ever contemplated the idea of doing the same thing. The world is full of pain and hatred, yes, but there is also beauty, you merely have to look for it. I remember playing cards that night shortly before you ran away. I don't remember anyone or ( ... )

Kristina... I didn't get the opportunity to know you well, though I like to think that if circumstances had permitted it, I may have known you better. You had an aura of a person who touches people's lives, making them better off. I'll miss never having the chance. May flights of Angels sing thee to thy rest.

I didn't know Kristina but I read about her suicide in someones LJ, and through linking I came to her journal. Someone in that other journal had questioned why Kristina would do this and said that there was no explanation in Kristinas journal. I knew that if someone committed suicide, there were probably obvious signs and so I wanted to read Kristinas journal for myself. As I suspected, there were numerous mentions of depression. It sounds as though she had a lot of friends and was well liked. I actually cried as I read this journal even though I didn't know her at all, so I know what so many of you are feeling right now. I too know what it's like to have a friend commit suicide. As time goes by the pain eases, but you'll never totally forget, and you'll always wonder why it happened. I still wonder and it's been over 25 years since my friend killed herself ( ... )

I do know that Kristina's sister is on LJ, so I'm sure that her parents will be informed about the LJ (I think they may have already been informed)

I still wish I had gotten to know Kristina better, and I'm one of her many cousins that will miss her immensely.

to be honest i'd rather email you, but you're anonymous so i can't. i just wanted to thank you for your response for several reasons: 1) i'm one of kristina's good friends of which you speak- one who will miss her everyday for quite some time, and then only occasionally for the rest of my life. i know her and i know the way she thinks, as much as anyone can know of anoyther, and i know that she wasn't planning this. she wasn't smiling when she was playing cards because of the plans she made. she was smiling because she was with her friends and having fun. she knew she had alot of friends, social support, etc. kristina was spontaneous and dramatic, and this was a spontaneous, dramatic decision. this was a result of the medication. and no, this has not made opposed to anti-depressants. i was happy for her when she decided to seek chemical help because i knew that she had mood swings and depressive moods that she couldn't control. anyway... the second reason that i wanted to thank you is that you didn't claim that she had touched your ( ... )
