Thats kind of what I was thinking. I have been depressed most of my life,

but not suicidal most of my life or I wouldn't still be here!

Carole--

There is a chronic low grade form of depression-called dysthymia.

This is very responsive to meds and and some behavior modification-

esp. in how you " talk " to yourself and respond to things around you.

But that is just it.. you do not have the knowledge you claim to have.

It is not a flame.. I have responded to many other than you who have

reported incorrect information. If you see it as being " flamed " then

perhaps you should reexamine your motives here.. I seem to recall

seeing quite a few posts recently from you, and the only one I

responded to contained incorrect information (actually, now I have

responded to TWO incorrect posts from you).

This from the person who attempted to drag my personal live OFF of

this list onto the list? Please.. I have nothing to say to you that

is so personal that it need be sent privately. Perhaps if your

information were correct, I would not feel compelled to respond to it.

I don't need attention.. I get it based on my merits, not because I

spread disinformation. I suppose is flaming you too? She said

essentially the same thing, yet you were appropriate in your response

to her. You just have issues.. and I don't care to get into that here.

You know well that if I wanted to do so, I could share quite a bit

more about you than I have.. but I have not, because you are (despite

what you seem to think) just not that important to me.

but not somthing

When you actually have experience and knowledge, feel free to post..

but if you post something that is not correct, expect to hear about

it. As I said before.. I am not the only one who feels your post was

incorrect.. and yet you accuse only me of " flaming. " Please.. just

grow up. I don't care if you stay here or leave.. I have a life &

plenty of friends both on & offline.. Just post correct information &

do not try to appear as something that you are not, & I don't care

what you say. Heck, for that matter, post whatever you please.. if its

wrong, I'll just let someone else correct you.. and they will.

Oh my sweet Jesus.. you are getting help from a qualified health

professional about this conviction that you are so important to the

entire functioning of the world, aren't you?

By the way.. Janice(once again.. dragging my offlist life onto this

list) actually IS a social worker who does a fine job... She is very

intelligent and dedicated. YOU, on the other hand.. well.. you've

proven yourself thoroughly.. so enjoy.. I pity you, .. I really

do.

To anyone else wondering about this, feel free to ask offlist..

despite our girl's conviction that I'm out to get her, I'm not.. but I

don't care to post my offlist life online.

And .. if you assalt Janice in the office again.. you may lose

that job. Try to be professional, would you?

Sigh.. I knew this was coming.. but I won't be bullied into silence

because of this person.. bad information is bad information.
