Don't know where that came from.<BR/><BR/>I used to write alot - poetry- (some would say alot of rubbish Ha!) but I haven't felt the inclination for ages. I used to do it for mostly selfish reasons and I think most art is done like that and actually should be. Someone should write things that are relevant and interesting to them...and if others find it relevant and interesting that is a bonus.<BR/><BR/>I don't think that makes writing narcisstic (or any other form of art). Is more a personal thing than that. Heaven knows why I wrote that but it came out so there you are. :>)<BR/><BR/>If you wrote that poem on your page...well, quite blown away by it. I thought it had been written in the 18th century (or thereabouts). <BR/><BR/>I wouldn't even know what a stanza is but it sounds clever. I used to write, again mostly, in a rythmic way. Cos that is how it sounded in my head. <BR/><BR/>If you like, one day I'll send you one of my poems as long as you take it at face value rather than look at the appropriateness of structure. For me it is all about feelings and situations.<BR/><BR/>Hope your state of feeling better for whatever reasons continues<BR/><BR/>xThat's not my name!https://www.blogger.com/profile/17064348309163649672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8436306896448667918.post-56541163441197880732009-03-18T23:22:00.000+00:002009-03-18T23:22:00.000+00:00Hi Mandy, sorry if it all seems a morass. Thanks f...Hi Mandy, sorry if it all seems a morass. Thanks for the compliment - I write for a whole host of selfish reasons, and one of the biggest is simply that if something I've written cheers someone up, then it's worth it.<BR/><BR/>Support, etc - you do what you can when you can, and make damn sure you stop when you can't - or before you can't ideally. It's hard though.<BR/><BR/>Metal wire and electricity. Yep - know that too damn well.<BR/><BR/>Oh well - I'm just rambling on again. Take care eh, hope you find something one of these days that helps you feel better. I feel 'better' at the moment, but in so far as I refuse to think about being ill, up, down or sideways. Perhaps I've given up and am just trying to learn to live with myself on a practical level, not my ideal level? <BR/><BR/>Oh well, take care again etc, yours D xDavidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08250441382312532991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8436306896448667918.post-44659731023034181092009-03-18T19:47:00.000+00:002009-03-18T19:47:00.000+00:00Hi LolaI think, things haven't got any better beca...Hi Lola<BR/><BR/>I think, things haven't got any better because I was already at the end of my tether months back and is only now services are looking, with any real agreement to do things, at Dad's care needs.<BR/><BR/>Sorry you had a shite day but bawling is healthy. Not saying that continual bawling is good..although better than internalising it all and it errupts in other (neggy and dangerous) forms. Sometimes, well quite often, I am feeling it all like metal wire and electricty continually circulating and the negative stuff bubbling ever up to boiling point and when I cry..well the relief is pretty immense. Maybe it goes away too soon but while it is there it is like something massive eases.<BR/><BR/>My wish is what you wish for, for yourself. In that, you don't need the sodding drugs anymore. I wish I didn't but I sense that without something (that hopefully will prove to have more positive side effects than negative ones) I could end up doing something bad to myself and i want a fighting chance..with semi decent odds.<BR/><BR/>Seeing my Support Worker in the not too distant future and on a more regular basis will help too.<BR/><BR/>And on the looking after self front. I cancelled something I agreed to do today, so that I could get my space back and veg out. The plus was that I didn't feel a heel for doing so because I knew I needed the space.<BR/><BR/>Normally I guilt myself out and that becomes another hammer for the falling.<BR/><BR/>You take care there too and am glad your Mum was on hand with shoulder for you to cry on.<BR/>xThat's not my name!https://www.blogger.com/profile/17064348309163649672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8436306896448667918.post-51571495614405937142009-03-18T18:42:00.000+00:002009-03-18T18:42:00.000+00:00Bah, sorry things have got no better Mandy. Maybe ...Bah, sorry things have got no better Mandy. Maybe Meds are a good option to explore? Although I'm playing devils advocate after bawling my eyes out on My Mum's shoulder for 4 hours this afternoon whilst spluttering "I'm never going back on those sodding drugs again, never, never i tell you!" But in all sense, sometimes they can be a good thing. Hope it turns into promising option for you.<BR/><BR/>Not good to hear about your support being taken advantage of, sounds a little too much to have to cope with if you are struggling yourself. Stay safe, fit your own oxygen mask first, then help others.<BR/><BR/>Lola xAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
