Oh Carole, I hope things are going much better for you! I don't like to see you down. You can PM me if you need someone to talk to!

Here are some things that I do when I need a coping method. I am not the greatest at using them because for almost a year I have been using a not so good one, but when I choose to use a different one here are some that I use:

Reading a good book
Writing in a journal
Looking at the nature-its SO pretty
Looking at how beautiful Heidi is and how much I love her (that cheers me up some)
Talking to someone about how I feel
Writing letters
Writing on my story
Listening to some good music
And If I am having a REALLY bad day, I sleep

I am sure you can think of some other ones too! I also like to read letters people wrote me telling me how much they love me. Oh, and going for a walk is good too. I don't know if any of those help, but they help cheer me up, and make the day a little bit more bearable. I don't like to shop so thats something I couldn't do because I can NEVER find clothes that fit me because they must make the pants for giants...hello, we are not all giants here!

Anyway, I hope things are going better for you! I am sorry that its so rotten for you. Remember you can PM me if you need someone to talk to. {{{{{HUGS}}}}}
