I love you all

I am in tears right now, having just read the loving messages on Nicole's post about my absence from the board.  I have been away, in some inpatient facilities for my mental health.  Funny thing about those facilities, they limit phone time and have no computers for the patients.  In one, the only TV we were allowed was three hours of local news, two in the morning and one at night.  We did get to watch the playoffs last weekend.  That was a treat.

I am battling some heavy duty mental illnesses, and alcoholism, on top of physical pain related to herniated discs and fibromyalgia.  It has not been a pretty school year, and I am not sure about when I will return to work.

My posts on Facebook in recent months belied my true problem, as I always try to be chipper and upbeat, and three weeks ago, I crashed, burned and self-destructed.  My sense of humor is slowly coming back, and I am trying to get a handle on life in the real world again.

Thanks for the prayers.  I am a true believer in God and know that He loves me. 

Love,
Trish

Trish - I am so sorry that you are going through this but so happy that you have sought the help that you need. Please know that we are also here to lean on if you need us. Maybe some time in Michigan with the munchkins is just what the Dr ordered!

We love you too!

Tri****'s the trials that draw us closer to God, and it sounds like you are truly going through the "refiner's fire" as the saying says.

Do take care of yourself and do the things that are most essential to your well being.

Wishing you peace, Lynn

Hi Trish-

We don't know each other, but I've read all the great things folks are saying about you so, I feel like I know you a little.

My prayers are with you and I wish you the best as you handle life and what a blessing that you have God in your life to help you through it all!
