Hello! I've been reading your diary for quite some time, so I thought I'd leave you a note. Your layout is really nice, and I'm so glad you are feeling better. Keep writing, and blessings!
from everyday-art :
i really like your layout.

(((agave))) i've been on the inside 3 times, and always voluntarily, so i don't pretend to understand the gross [and i *do* mean gross in multiple senses]usurping of power seized from patients who just want their moods to lift and stabilize and to think and feel peacefully. the battle of wits to keep at bay fickle institutional decisions to restrain, to 'quiet room', to 1:1, etc... despite their definitions of crazy, we are all ENTITLED to our fear; our fear is a natural-born guide, a defense weapon, a compass, a shield. no good psychiatrist/therapist/doctor should condition any human being absolutely ignore, discredit, or discount our inborne fears that alert us that we may be in harm's way. manage our fear's intensity, yes. dismiss our fears completely, no. so, let every buyer (m.d./ph.d./r.n. whatever) beware! your trust is priceless & your fear barometer will not be sold.

Hi there. I found you through Diarist. Just wanted to leave a quick note to say that I really, really like your writing and your template rocks. And, respect is always nice.
from cyanophyta :
It makes me incredibly sad to hear about your awful psychiatrist -- I worked with a wonderful, wonderful, man for years and made very significant emotional/mental improvements with him. I wish you'd had the same experience, and I hope you connect with a professional who is as compassionate and articulate and as kind as you are. You deserve the best.

Stumbled upon your site and found it interesting and the depressive note to make an appointment with your psychiatrist funny yet somewhat a slap in my face cos I think I need to see one too. Yeah, you guessed it, I'm another one of those depressed ppl still lying around. But I think you're awfully brave and strong, to find a life with Eric, and succeeded. Bravo. Look me up. http://jennirhiow.blogspot.com/

It's weird, I always find that I have some of the best conversations with my husband in the car, often on long drives. It's nice. I'm glad you and Eric had a chance to reconnect.
from clarity25 :
Just discovered your diary and I'll be back to read more of your archives. I love your writing style, it's honest and captivating. We seem to have a few things in common. I'm also with an Eric..Just thought I would say "hi"

I feel your pain. The other week a friend of mine told me that the person I have a crush on said "I may have thought that Jen was prettier initially, but Jess is beautiful". My first reaction was, "Jen is prettier than me?"
from grngrl75 :
I am so so sorry to hear about your student. We all can think he wanted to be saved, but in the end it still wouldve been up to him. I'm so so sorry to hear he passed away, especially this way...My condolences.

from caerydd :

from resistivity :
I think your diary is very thoughtful and wonderfully voiced. I found you while searching for information on diversity and similar issues and read your wonderful entry to your student, thinking through assumnptions about race, etc. I'll be back. -- resistivity
