I know a little about what you are going through, my Mom suffers from mental illness issues and it's so hard sometimes knowing how to help and what to do. Your words really resonated with me"We all have the potential for mental illness, if we have enough bad shit thrown at us" so true.Angelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03298099759296161682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31853698.post-70700482357088644832008-04-01T15:01:00.000-05:002008-04-01T15:01:00.000-05:00Sounds like good news all round.

Your observation that we all have the potential for mental illness if we have more sh*t thrown at us than we can cope with rings particuarly true this morning. I am watching my younger brother struggle to cope with things in his life and am increasingly frightened that there is nothing I can do to help him. He is dealing with depression and anxiety, and seems unable to see a way out. Thank you for reminding me that it is possible to come through on the other side.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31853698.post-8629606209340228452008-03-30T20:44:00.000-05:002008-03-30T20:44:00.000-05:00Yay Cuba!I hope you have so much fun.Yay Cuba!<BR/>I hope you have so much fun.moplanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16998309937928231527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31853698.post-39831800716629094382008-03-30T20:16:00.000-05:002008-03-30T20:16:00.000-05:00i am so happy for the news about your family membe...i am so happy for the news about your family member...that's got to be such not only such a weight off your collective shoulders, but hopeful, too, for her and the possibility of a more stable future.<BR/><BR/>and Varadero sounds dreamy.Bonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14403701620708365171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31853698.post-64705513723035253542008-03-30T19:52:00.000-05:002008-03-30T19:52:00.000-05:00Cuba!
