there are many times that i feel as if i am alone. it sounds a little strange saying that considering that i have a wonderful family that i live with. however, there are those times where i search the deep confines of my mind and find something that seems as if i can only deal with. all alone...no one else. but i also find that each time i have to deal with this thing, it gets a little easier. i really believe that it is partly due to the fact that i realize that others have been through the exact same thing and have survived. i want to thank you all for sharing your experiences, because it does make a difference. respectfully, SM

All day, every day, I also feel like I'm in a glass box .......... what a perfect way to explain it. Thank you Sheree!

Interestingly, I don't feel it when I'm online. I can do anything, talk to anyone, etc. on the internet, and I don't feel any chasm at all.

But out in the 3D world, OMG it's all glass box......

rachel,
I to am a zoner. I have been doing this since I was very young. I always wondered if it was ADD as I was growing up and they had a name for some of the psy problems. Iat 55 just found out it is a dissociative problem not ADD at all. It isn't harmful but hours go by and I can't account for time.

Hi Grama Herc, I'm sorry you feel that way but it's not true. You have made contributions to society by giving advice on this forum and taking in animals and caring for them.

You would leave a trace behind because the people here would miss you.

You have made improvement because I read your posts.

You have every reason to be here. Your just as important as anyone else. So what if you haven't cured a disease or restored peace. These accomplishments don't make a person better than every one else. Those people are not God.

You have talents inside you that are just as important as the ones you mentioned (just in a different way).

Maybe you said hi or gave advice to some one on this forum who was going to kill themselves, but because you were nice to them and noticed they needed help they are still here and enjoying life. To me that is much more profound than inventing a pill or an air plane. Look inside yourself and find your gifts, and start using them and you will start feeling your place here on earth.

Every person at least once in their life has question their existence it's human nature to do so.

Peace
Tammy

One of my friends once told me when I was really down ...

Each person is like a stone being thrown in a pond. The ripples being sent from where the stone entered the water.

We can't see the affects we have in this world sometimes, but each ripple from our very existence has intersected with many others in some way.

I often think of that, where have my ripples gone and what have I changed in this world due to my 'small' actions of simply existing.

I really like being alone too....I enjoy adult company for only a bit and then i need quiet. It just feels alone when you have not a lot of help whn you are in desparate need.

ALONE! But with the past as my constant shadow!

i could not have phrased that better myself...now i have too think of positive...too tired right now.
