Kaorichann, I just checked out your personal messages. I am encouraged by your willingness and especially your ability to articulate your feelings! Much of what you've describe I feel too....

Staying Sane

How do I stay sane these days? How do I keep from going totally nut-so and winding up back in the hospital?

I keep myself busy with writing. Today I went on campus and worked for about 3 hours, working on a new screenplay. Maybe it'll be for an actual short film I'll do some day. Anyway, I also was talking to some people through e-mail who are interested in being actors in the last screenplay I wrote. I'm hoping it will become a reality. It's creating a lot of stress for me, but also is real exciting.

I take my medication (sometimes) and go to the student health center for counseling just so people don't bitch and moan. The treatment I undergo is really more for my family and friends then for me, being as it only makes them feel better. But it does actually help me too as then I don't have to listen to whining.

I work a lot too, that way I stay busy and productive, and I make money. Which is always nice.

We tend to be hard on oueselves when things don't go the way we want. We tend to try to find an excuse,or someone to blame.


I'll share a secret, there is a little thing called free will,we all have the choice to do what we want. To control this we need wolesum thoughts ritghtousness if you want to call it that.


Here is another thought,how wonderful is the world around us? We tend to be a by product of that world. If you can, get out of the ugliness that is in our world.


Thoughts:


1 Change associates.


2 Stop watch the biggest culprite of our dissatisfaction TV


3 Stop listening to everone else, listen to your heart think or beauty and joy, your heart  will reflect the truth.


You are a beautiful person,you made it this far, think how much further YOU,yes YOU are going to go.


Beutiful person,we will be here  for you. Remember we are all human and have faults, so we need each other to help us help ourseves.


I'll be here


JIM

  Katie's Reply: I wanted to thank you for your tribute. It's not everyone that tries to make me feel good about myself, or special. There are some mean people out there, but I try to remember there are good people as well. You and me. Thank you!

<3 Katie
