Chris,

I had a day like that it started wednesday late afternoon. Just like that i started to cry, i felt a big hole in my heart,I felt as if i have gone completely backwards (last 2 1/2 weks i have been trying to cope with a major heartbreak). I thought i was making baby steps to find myself feeling worse- sad, lonely scared etc. it lasted straight through thursday and thursday night. i did everything i was told to do but would i still felt horrible. Last night i got a personal email from a stranger, a person that i dont really know, a person from this site. Someone that just wanted to say hello and ask how was my day. wow, that email made me feel a little better. here was someone just wanting to say hi and they made the difference in me. so Chris, Hello and how was your day? it was a beautiful weather wise day and i pray that at some point you took the time to be grateful for that.

On the walking....I do walk every day. Yes, it helps for the time I am doing it, sometimes, but when I'm done, nothing has really changed...I'm still in the same boat I was in before the walk. Please see my post "Anxiety 101: For those who don't "get it"" and maybe what I'm saying will make a little more sense. When you have a physical neurological disorder, it's like telling someone who has cancer to take a walk to get rid of their tumor.

Nevermind...if you've never experienced this there's no way you can understand...I shouldn't have even brought it up. Sorry.

Chris, I absolutely do not understand fully as I'm not experiencing all that you are. I believe people are here for 1. trying to make sense of what we suffer ourselves...to connect with another. 2. to tell you we care and that we wish we could make it better and help you. I'm willing to try anything. And I am not believing that there is going to be a panacea for everyone, certainly. Of course you should be here and expressing yourself. That's why we're all here, right?

Sorry, Chris. I did not mean it that way. Walking will not cure anxiety or depression, but I think it does help lessen the mental anguish. I hope your depression lifts soon.

Ya' know, I've not taken my meds for about a mos.

I agree with ya' about hanging with couples...that puts me in the dumps BIG TIME! (long story)

I'm here for ya' snuggles....
