Topic : Depression

Quote From: labelfree

Dear Depression board family......

 

I thought it was going to be all over today but it wasn't.  I am so very glad I have since JUNE 05 or before I have had the support of our family here on DR Phil's depression board! 

 

This  has always been a very safe place for me to post and get ugly feelings out.

 

I stopped writing on here because my ex's new relationship has STALKED me here and has made up so many lies about me she  (as I thought )  is jealous of me. 

 

As I read in (OUR DISCOVERY PAPERS) she is about 3 years younger than me but to tell you the truth her appearance is as if she was 10 years older than me.  She also claims something about her 8 year old child and that is why I was shocked because since I thought she was 10 years older than me  how could she possibly have a small child!

 

She is acting like she is obsessed with my life and she became very emotional and lied right to the JUDGES FACE today...I am leaving NJ tomorrow about 4:30 PM

 

I actually felt sorry for my ex husband today who has to deal with such a pathetic personality type.

 

I must return back here to NJ in 8 months and she is ordered to stay away from me and me to her!

 

I cannot get into the specifics as of yet to this case but please understand this OK!  You know I would tell ya all everything and anything.

 

THIS cookie crack pot needs to understand if she rights up one more false police report against me I will prosecute her to the fullest extent of the law. 

 

From now until the time I must report again if she does anything against the law to me my new hired attorney can and will press charges against her in a criminal matter than I will also SUE her in a civil matter!  Making her realize I have NO RECORD  NO bad driving tickets  and I will not allow anything to tarnish that!  LYING TO A JUDGE  A PROSICUTOR and THE POLICE is against the law!

 

I am so happily married and in-love with my new husband.  No one will rob my joy not even for one minute.

 I did try to call my dr. today but of course the office closed at 4pm and i called around 4:15. Anyways! I really don't know where to start. I can go back to when I was a child, or I can go back just a few years. I do have to say atleast I know it does go way back to my childhood what has triggered it. I do keep thinking what friend can I call to vent to, but I just don't want to be that birden. I know two of my friends where already like open up will you. I can't cause I do know what my one friend has going on in her life, and I feel like she has enough going on. My other friend, I really don't belive she will know what to do, what words to say to help me. I have been there for them, all my friends that have came running to me for advice. I even sit back and think of what I have told them, Heck why can't I take the advice I give them to help me. I know I take after my father with temper. I use to punch walls and yell alot when someone would tick me off. I can say I never hit no one. My dad is a drinker, not as bad as he was when I was younger thank god. Just glad I didn't follow that. Yes he was a mean drunk. I did look up depression online and there was a little quiz to take to roughly see what kind of depreesed person I am. I am not sure how acurate the quiz is, but heck I even started balling reading the questions. UGH!!!!!!! It says I am moderately severe depressive. Doesn't sound that bad. LOL...Yes I have to laugh at that just because mainly that is what I think, it dont sound bad. I have in the past sat down and wrote things for like two days. Then after that I couldn't stick with it cause it couldn't keep my attention, pertty much borded me i guess. Heck maybe buying a punching bag will help, wont hurt the fist as much when punching a wall. HAHAHA

Good news: I'm NOT being petitioned after all!

Bad news: I'm being forced to move to an absolute hellhole! It's an assisted living facility downtown. I've been to it before and it is horrible! I HATE IT, but I don't get a say in the matter. I'd rather be petitioned.

WOW! I hope you go to bat for yourself like you do for others. I don't know why yet when comes to my own affairs my emotions get in the way. Such as sorting through my dad's mineral interests. That's why I hope Dr. Phil helps me since has such excellent legal experience and connections.

I was having horrid flash backs that began after a dream about someone from around the same time period. Then, my brother called and while he was looking for a contest to enter online I found below contest. LOLz Then, he and two of his roomers and I were trying to pick out the 75 Rock Bands from picture. We got most of them then I decided to do a poem for the contest. I was impressed how many I got yet some we all got not correct. I think my list "may" not be 100% correct. Yet WOW... no room for flashbacks. Lynn let me sleep until 10 a.m. and is doing lunch via take out. Thank God... and Lynn.

I had to postpone calling Court House of County Clerk because when I was faxing information about my dad to Oil Company their number didn't work. I called another number and was told electrical problems or some sort of problems led to Court House closing until repaired. I haven't heard back on other two faxes so need to inquire and check out County Clerk's office again. Seeing your stand up for yourself post to Denise reminded me. Thank you. You too. We too. Me too.

Anyway, if anyone is overwhelmed with anxiety provoking thoughts or flash backs that out of the blue dropped in to disrupt present. Below contest really takes your mind off things. Some of the most fun I've had in a long time when my brother and his roomers and Lynn and I were trying to pick out rock groups in picture below to see who could first.

It was fun listening to my brother and his roomers work it out in their collective thinking and chatting about. So much that then Lynn wanted to join in. Let's just say my flash backs took a back seat and one of roomers who'd just lost his dad was even cheered up by the rocking social conference call fellowship looking for rockers in picture inspired contest below. Sometimes you have to email links below to yourself to click on to access. I'm still pretty stunned from flashbacks so thank God and Lynn that Lynn gave me the day off from cooking.

Let's Rock!!! Picture Inspired

Prayers of a positive outcome in court for Sue today... pertaining to her situation and for Denise in her case, too.

As Mary Ann says, "prayers across the board" and as I say, "behind the boards too for support staff and all who make Dr. Phil Website possible..." Including all of us... Oh I already said that... and... all those dear to us. Amen and Amen P.S. and thanks for our many blessings like Whitney's toe having doctor's seal of approval healed and five boxes of clothes Denise received and aces24 having a better day... Cheers to Gillian and Laurie... heading back to gym and Suzanne hopping on treadmill... pointing us all into the direction of a healthier lifestyle... etc. Prayers and thanksgiving "across the baord"...

         When it comes to my "garbage" the blinders just get darker and darker! It's so much easier to help others see the light than to go through my own darkness! I'm hoping and praying I get my tax refund SOON! If i can just go without writing another check from the insurance account I'll be okay. I filed my taxes back in FEBRUARY! They said they found a problem with it! Well, I went over it again and everything was right! I wasn't the one who filled them out though. They say I should have it within the next thirty days! I'm sure not going to hold my breath!

You have a handle on where you learned pressure release via angry outbursts from your dad. Yet, you've seen didn't work for him because hurt you and you aren't your dad... you are you. Nonetheless, have that tendency to consider from seeing your dad in action.

There is such a thing as scream therapy and other positive ways of releasing the pressure of stress. Walks. Some go into closet so neighbors don't dial 911 if think you are in distress instead of releasing distress. Others go t sporting events where yelling is normal or turn on a sporting event on TV.

There use to be a therapy where couples used foam bats to express aggravation with one another. Not sure if still used and not sure if a good idea. Heard about YEARS ago and not much since. I knew a man prone to violence and softball was a release for him. Tennis is good. Dr. Phil refers to tennis as almost therapeutic and a must do on his schedule.

Some tennis courts have a backboard that you can just hit a tennis ball up against and Parks and Recreation Centers have lots of activities. Well, you bowl don't you. I "think" it was you who listed on your profile you bowl. I think our member Corrine bowls too... or has or use to and may still now.

What is your bowling score? Are you on a league? I use to love to bowl the few times I have. Being on a bowling league is fun. That's a good release... throwing bowling ball. Imagine you are throwing all your problems and stress away with each toss.

To me, it sounds like you've got a handle on it and are taking personal inventory and VERY proactive. Sorry you missed your doctor today. That's happened to me before when I forgot a doctor I saw left at noon on Fridays. Thank God for tomorrows, right?

However, if you feel you need help there's 911 and you can go to Crystal Cathedral New Home and click on link to talk to a live counselor FREE online. Religion isn't topic or paramount to call and was created in 1965, I think, when a member there attempted suicide. Dr. Phil "and" Robin both have spoken at Crystal Cathedral. Just a suggestion. That's life... like economics: choice. I wish us all the best choices managing our lives like top not CEO's on the ball rolling with the punches but not throwing them.

Hugs and prayers and thanks for the reply. SEA
