How are you feeling?

[Shyangel]

I think hookah is fairly innocent. A lot of people do it as a recreational thing and I don't think it's the same as smoking a cigarette. I tried it once just to see what all the hype was about but I didn't really do it much because it still felt really awkward and wrong.

I think it's okay that you tried it but it's also okay to say no if you don't want to do it again. Tell your sister that you tried it and didn't like it and she can stuff the hookah where the sun doesn't shine for all you care .

It's also okay if it's something that you want to do again. But make sure that you are doing it again for the right reasons and not to try and escape from something. We can never truly run away from our problems. When whatever substance you are using to get away disappears your problems are still there. I can understand feeling like you just need to let loose and get away from things sometimes, but it can be a dangerous path to walk down.

Yeah, I know. I think it's mostly a faze and I'll get through it without to much problem. I really hope it doesn't become a problem, I can't promise. It's not my sister's fault, I wanted to do it. She was really joking.

Thanks for the smart advice.

I hope I didn't come across as mean. After re-reading my post that's easy to misinterpret.

As Buzzkillington has said: if you want to do it on a recreational basis, there's nothing wrong with that. I guess I'm a little worried after seeing my friend "try" pot, and now he's smoking upwards of 5 bongs a day, sometimes 10 or more. He's also tried LSD. I certainly wouldn't want you to do anything like that for fear of addiction.

I guess I'm just an old fart now, haha. Ultimately it's up to you what you want to do. I just hope you make the right choices. You're a smart girl so I have every faith that you will.

No, it's all good, Mikey. I didn't think you were being mean at all.
5 10 bags a day sound like a serious problem. The idea of that slightly appeals to me, that's the issue...It's probably just thoughts that I wont really act on. I hope. I don't think I could ever try something as serious as speed or whatever and that's what makes me pretty confident I wont go too far. Hey, I might not even do it again. Who knows.

Thanks guys for the caring advice.

I hope you don't act on such things, Shy. You're far too cool already.

That's not true, but thank you, Mikey.

How are things with you?

 

[MikeyC]

That's not true, but thank you, Mikey.

How are things with you?

It's most certainly true.

I'm feeling okay right now. It's tentative but I'll run with it. How about you?

I'm feeling pretty good. Been doing fun things with my sister's lately, that's kept me in a decent mood. It's also good for me because I have a problem really wanting or getting the motivation to do anything anyone. It's emtionally exhausting.

That's good that you're doing fun things with your sister, but not so good that you're losing motivation for everything. :: My inbox is available if you would like to chat about it...or anything.

I appreciate that, Mikey, but I don't have an xbox.

It's always been this way really so don't worry about it.
It's just normal.

I had to check that that's not what I typed, haha. ::

It might be normal, but still, it's unfortunate. As long as you're happy that's all that matters.

 

[LadyWench]

That's really awful! Hope your anxiety passes soon. Hang in there

Thanks, I appreciate your concern. I've been doing okay for the past couple of days, dealing with only a little bit of anxiety here and there. Now it's 3:00am and I'm feeling anxious once again, trying not to panic. Fun fun!

Maybe you can keep your mind busy, how about some music or movies or maybe even a good book? I hope you feel better

Hahaha! That's the 5th time I've done that kind of thing today.
I wonder if it's the beer or what not. That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it!::

Thanks, your such a sweetie, Mikey.::

I really hope you can feel the same way to someday soon, and keep it that way forever.

Stay chilled, LadyWench. Hopefully your anxious feelings pass without a hitch.

Let's just blame the beer, anyway!

Thanks, Shy. I'm no sweetie but I try. Hehe.

Thank you. I am trying to keep my mind distracted and focus on other things, but it's a bit difficult. I have OCD and tend to obsess about certain fears that cause the panic attacks. I do hope it passes, though.

And thank you, MikeyC. I appreciate it.

 

[doubtmyself]

a little tired today

 

[this_portrait]

Feeling pretty wide awake. I'm glad that my sleep schedule is finally back on track, for the most part. Part of me also feels kinda nervous because I have to present my progress on my senior project tonight.

 

[Graeme1988]

F**king knackered, extremely tired. I didn't get to sleep until 4am. Insomnia is a right pain in the arse.

Also, I feel I shouldn't complain as much as I have doing recently.

And I think self doubt is what's stopping me from being creative. ::

 

[MikeyC]

And thank you, MikeyC. I appreciate it.

You're welcome.

I don't feel too bad this morning. Not really sure what's come over me but I feel more contented. There's still that black hole of depression in me but it's smaller than normal. I will ride this elevator for as long as I can.

 

[Phoenixx]

Annoyed, almost pissed off in a way, and I don't even know why.
