well everyone has been saying what a shitty week they have been going through so i decided to chime in. i do not normally post shit like this but perhaps you guys should know.
for quite some time now several months now, i have been having a med change. it didn't go as planned. russ thinks maybe i should go back up another notch on my meds but i will wait to speak to my doctor. living with mental illness over your head isn't a fun thing.
for the past few months i have had bad stomach/colon/intestinal problems. the doctor suspects its IBS but i upped my fiber and water intake and been eating better and it's only gotten a bit better so now i have to go get an ass inspector to take a look.
when my primary care physician suspected IBS he wanted for me to get a lower GI CT scan. while they found nothing in my intestines/colon they did find that i have a slight case of liver disease.
another thing that since we have had all this rain and heat here and there my non allergic rhinitis has been flaring up very badly. my head, face and ears feel as though they are going to explode. there is nothing they can do.
i have been having anxiety attacks quite often lately most likely because well when the liver crap and stomach crap came along i get like a fuckin hypochondriac and think ima die and also i get all nervous plus the effects of the med change too.
to top it off i get the shit end of the stick from two of the people that mean the most to me.
that is just SOME of what has been going on here.

why do i never say a thing about it? because i do not want to bother people with my problems.

while i had/have all this on my shoulders and what not i do not makes excuses for my behavior and stand by the things i have said. regardless of what i said and how i said it. i still made the choice to say it but i will not blame it on how i feel or the stress that i have been under.

everyone has shitty days, shitty weeks and shitty months

Robin, Im sorry you are having problems! and you're right everyone has and deserves to have shitty times, sucks but its a part of life.

I hope they get your meds fixed, I tried to go off mine again and I guess I am going to have to face the fact that I will take them til I die, I just wish they would give me soemthign that works for more than a few months at a time.

I hope everythign goes Ok with the rest of your test, and never think that you are bothering anyone, but I feel the same way so I understand why you say that. Maybe Ill post my shit later since we are getting all of this out in the open.

I also think that you are just you and you say what you think and that is part of makes you Robin.

one thing i do not want though is anyones sympathy.
i am just saying we all have bad shit going on and regardless of what people say when they feel like shit, it is still what they said. an apology doesn't work and/or may take time and by saying "i was having a bad day" you can't take it back that way.

I love you Robin. Yes, you got poked with the shit end of the stick. Things will get better. I promise!

(BTW, how can you take a shit when you aren't on the phone talking to me?)

I understand, I often feel people are more honest when they have "a bad day" its allows them to tak their anger out and not feel bad about it.

My dad says that you get truth from people when they are drunk because they don't give a shit, I think you get more truth when people are angry too.

You are too tough of a woman to get any sympathy from me, I hate you are having problems, but I know you are a strong ass woman and you will get through it. I keep my sympathy for children and people who really can't get along by themselves for whatever reason.

OK... then I'll talk to you, here. As close as we all are in the Round Room, there are bound to be times when we get pissed off. Even at each other! It doesn't mean there isn't love or support just because we get mad. I got pissed off at you, but it doesn't mean our friendship has to end over it, does it? If I thought any of my relationships would end just because we got mad at each other, I would be divorced and friendless by now!

while i had/have all this on my shoulders and what not i do not makes excuses for my behavior and stand by the things i have said. regardless of what i said and how i said it. i still made the choice to say it but i will not blame it on how i feel or the stress that i have been under.

I still stand behind what I said, Robin. I got mad at you, and meant it. You of all people, should understand about getting mad and going off on someone. You do it all the time, and that is a part of who you are. I can accept that, and love you and your evil twin!

You have asked me (us) to understand that you have had a lot of shit going on... meds, pain, worry, anxiety. You asked us several months ago to give you some slack because of your medication changes. We have, and we still do, Robin. That's what friends do for each other.

I would hope that you could also give me some slack in return.

i never asked for slack... just a heads up to you guys here in the round room.

and thus far i have not been overly bitchy to anyone, except those whom have deserved it. if i was, i still stand by my words and not have any excuses, med change, anxiety, worry, pain whatever.

have you seen me say "oh you fucking shithead" and then later "oh i am so sorry i was having a bad day because i was emotionally drained and in a really bad mood. i have really been having a shitty day/week"?

Whatever, Robin. I just feel that you shouldn't ask for something you are not prepared to reciprocate. That's all. I'm just sorry I didn't give you a 'heads up' that I was having a hard time and might say or do something I might regret.

I feel like the rest of the Round Room members are at a disadvantage because they do not have access to the Moderator's Forum, and therefore do not have a complete history of what this is all about. For this reason, I will no longer be 'posting' anything in regard to this situation. I will be more than willing to talk this out with the involved parties without subjecting the rest of the members to it.

i do not think access to the moderators forum has anything to do with this.

also, i told you earlier i did not want to talk to you right now.

Well, I am really not sorry about anything I said. Like I told you in the pm Robin, I made a too quick decision to ban you, and I am sorry about that, but I was worried about what might transpire in that thread that started all of this if I didn't. I'm not perfect and I don't always make the right decisions and I think I am entitled to make a mistake every now and then. Of course I love you, that's a given :sweetheart: and I am sorry you are not feeling good.

And by the way, I think the majority of my problems of late are self inflicted and things I can control (except for the fuckin roaches) and I know compared to some, they are not that big of a deal. I am sorry if I was whining, WHAAAAA it does feel good to whine every now and then though. I feel better now after getting some much needed sleep :)
