Down Down Down From Here But How Far

[Dizmo]

I;m on one again but this time I feel it's stronger. I remember the people who have helped me and I also remember the ones who have helped and abandoned me. Looks like another night of pain I think. You know what, I don't want a response. The person I thought I could talk to isn't around. It's about time I stopped relying on anyone

I know where you are going with this, but don't forget you too close the lines of communication and I do not mean that nastily.

Diz..chin up xx ! Thought you were shop sitting ?

I went back to work today after 8 weeks off ill and it was good to actually be back there, but also very strange, if I had stayed at home any longer I would never have gone back. After all these years of working I've decided to slow down and work at the same pace as the 18 year old kids, I'm 40 years older than them and fed up of racing past them to get the job done whilst they faf about checking their phones for texts and pics. Sorry, needed to get that out. Chin up lad you've alot of living left to do.

//You know what, I don`t want a response// But you do, don`t you? Otherwise you wouldn`t have posted here.

Are the shutters still up?

It isn't a good idea to totally rely on anybody else. I thought your friend had made contact with you? We're here x

[sherrardk]

Fair do's to post about feeling down but a bit low to allude to someone else as one of the reasons for it.

So where are you, Diz......?

Not sure shop-sitting by yourself was the best idea actually.....but as long as your pc works and the battery holds up, some of us are here.

They make their own instruments but alas the electrics……

Kepp posting diz - although I know you said earlier that you won't have internet access in the shop overnight.

[anneasquith]

Dizmo, one hour at a time is what you aim for. You are doing ok. Some of us have our own trials , chin up.

Dotty, I think this happens on all or most jobs nowadays. I try to ignore it but it's very hard to. All the young one want is to make the hours and get a paycheck, but do no work.


Dizzy, just think how better of you are than many. Take things one step at a time, as they come.

Why just rely on one person to talk to when you have got more than your moneys worth here......you've got all of us. X
How is the shop sitting going, I hope you've got a radio or a good book with you.

[anneasquith]

good book. he has no electricity ?

[Sparkles62]

Battery powered radio? Lol. X

Queenie xx

Just to add to this, because I've just stumbled on it again and I want to get this off my chest, I think you are extremely rude and ungrateful.
You have so many people on here that have offered their help and support, yet as soon as one person doesn't reply to you, you get on your high horse and think it's acceptable to publicly 'shame' them.
No one has 'abandoned' you, you just expect everyone to be there 24/7 and, whilst that would be an ideal world, it's just not always possible.

Ummm has been a great support to you, yet you decided to tell everyone on here last week she "has only spoken to you once in two months", other people (including myself) have also offered to be there to support you, but sometimes it's a bit full on and it's just not possible to be there all the time... as much as you demand that.
I have told you all this via email, and have also posted on here regarding it too, yet you still continue to text me in the early hours of the morning and then throw your toys out of the pram when you don't get an immediate reply.

I completely agree with one of the comments above, in that it's extremely unfair of you to say you're feeling so down because of one person.
Just stop for a minute, stop thinking about yourself only and think how that makes that person feel. You have no idea what that person is going through, they may be in a worse 'place' that yourself, so maybe a little thought and consideration for other people's feelings wouldn't go amiss.

My suggestion regarding the samaritians was a genuine one, because you obviously aren't getting the support you need from answerbank, yet don't seem to want to look anywhere else or try any other options.

I think the majority of people will know the fallback of this response, in that your next post will be how bad you are feeling, how you've just been beaten up, or bitten by a dog, or how you're 'close to the edge', but you know what Diz, we all have problems and you need to stop putting everyone else on a guilt trip and making them feel even worse. It works both ways.

To anyone that comes on here and says this is out of order, I would ask you why?
This (the OP) is a horrible, nasty post aimed at people who have done nothing but tried to help, and was designed to make that person feel so bad that they'd be guilt tripped into responding.

[anneasquith]

bs. this is really none of my business, but I see from your posts you appear to have your own 'issues' at present and you must concentrate on yourself,
