Subject: BS: Need some extra 'oomph' thoughts, please From: katlaughing Date: 07 May 12 - 01:39 PM For various reasons, I have been struggling with depression, whilst waiting on a procedure which will help the cause.
I dislike asking for help, but a friend, again, reminded me it's okay to ask friends, so please, if you've a mind to, add me to your good thoughts, etc. I know my Rog would appreciate it, too. As the brunt of all this he catches a lot of whiney-titty-baby stuff.:-)

Subject: RE: BS: Need some extra 'oomph' thoughts, please From: SINSULL Date: 08 May 12 - 10:22 AM When I was in my teens I helped an elderly lady across the street. She told me she was in her nineties. Shook her head as we passed some girls jumping rope and said a bit wistfully "You know in my mind I can still do that." Jump rope in your mind, Miss Kitty. |
Subject: RE: BS: Need some extra 'oomph' thoughts, please From: GUEST,999 Date: 08 May 12 - 10:49 AM Keriste, I'd have posted before now but I thought the thread title was '. . . extra oompha thoughts' and I couldn't figure out what it was doing in BS and not above the line in music, and oompha music reminds me of irritating noise with a tempo-ed discipline. Stress is a great contributor to depression. Witness the economy. Capitalist bastards took a chunk of the money out, spread it among their friends, stressed the world's finances and poof, depression. Riding on a road in Alberta on the way to a MVC and the Rescue truck hit a big dip in the road, and poof, depression. BUT, there's a reason it's called a depression and not a never-ending glide to madness: there is an upside on the way. Hold that thought, Kat. |

Subject: RE: BS: Need some extra 'oomph' thoughts, please From: Megan L Date: 08 May 12 - 02:05 PM Gnu Skelp ye ken fine I hiv an over active imagination and the first part o yer statement will fuel nightmares fur a week :) Now remember fowks the old saying is "Some fowk see the glass as half empty some fowk see it as half full" yer names no Dauvit so ye dont get awa wie sayin "Who the heck stole ma flamin glass" Dont walk around looking down ye canny see the seagull that tries tae lay an egg in yer hair. Dont walk around looking up for low flying seagulls, you wont see the great big muddy puddle till ye fall in it. Dont walk around looking backwards ye wilny see the lampost in yer path. Instead walk around with your head up so people can see yer bonny smile, looking forward to all the good things you are working towards and with a spring in yer step and a song in yer heart it is infectious the rest of you catches the warmth and folk notice the new glow comming from inside you. |

Subject: RE: BS: Need some extra 'oomph' thoughts, please From: katlaughing Date: 08 May 12 - 03:40 PM Thank you, everyone! For the laughs, love, etc. I was able to go for an osteopathic treatment today which was helpful. Also, I called the insurance co. again to see if they really did expedite the approval for the eye-rawn I need.:-) Surprise and thankfullness. They did and I am scheduled for this Friday at 11a. All should be much improved a couple of days later barring any allergic reactions. I will take a benadryl before just in case. I feel nervous, don't know why...I don't mind needles, though 3-4 hours could get a bit tedious. Maybe I'll take the laptop. Thanks, so much. I'm off for a nap, now. luvyakat |

Subject: RE: BS: Need some extra 'oomph' thoughts, please From: GUEST,Bob Ryszkiewicz Date: 08 May 12 - 08:26 PM The great Sid Caesar had this story. He said(paraphrasing here...), " I had EVERYTHING, a hit T.V. show, I could buy any car, point at a house and it would be mine, but I wasn't "HAPPY." "I met a friend who gave one simple direction. If you put your thoughts on "HAPPY" that will be your experience. If you let your mind drift to that which reminds you you are depressed, then THAT happens." Ridiculously simple, but watch a funny film, PLAY with some kids, DO something good for somebody else, the direction of your thought HAS to change. You CANNOT be depressed while laughing. Unless of course, you are BONKERS...LOL...:0) The expression, "he has lost his mind," is quite apropos.. For ME, that means you GAVE UP the CHOICE as to which thoughts YOU LET your mind entertain. It's not the wife or lack of one who is to blame. Nor is it your SITUATION. It's all YOU. A CARPENTER ONCE SAID, : "I HAVE RISEN ABOVE THE WORLD VIBRATION." The Secret/The Magic by Rhonda Byrne, recommended reading/living...FEELING... Tripura Samhara Prachende Skandaya Namaha...Peace to all...BR |
