Title: Speechless....
Post by Donna_D. on Jan 20th, 2005, 9:47pm
...yes, for once I have been left not knowing exactly what to say.  

I am awed and humbled by the overwhelming response to my "cry for help"...and believe me, things have been very critical around here lately.  

For days now I have been avoiding the constable who was trying to serve me with an eviction notice due to unpaid rent.  I have been putting off the utiliy companies for weeks, begging them for additional time to get the payments to  them to keep them from shutting off the water, electricity and phone...putting groceries on the table of course has also been a HUGE source of stress.  This on top of the fact that my paychecks are bouncing, the crime in my apartment community has skyrocketed my upstairs neighbor was stabbed three times in the chest less than 50 feet from my front door last week and I found my 2 year old son  playing with a crackpipe someone threw over the fence onto my patio.  This along with my kids being sick for ever (it seems), the ex, my headaches kicking in again, anxiety, depression.....well, it all makes for a great big bowl of shit stew...

Things are getting better.  With a LOT of help from all of you I managed to get the rent paid before the eviction notice was served, the utility companies are off my back for the moment, and the kids have plenty to eat.  

I have presented my boss with the information on hot checks and she is getting her heart right and quick.  

I have been to the doctor and now have some happy pills to help me through this rough spot in life.  Anyone have any experience with Lexapro 10mg?  I am only two days into taking them but I am getting some sleep already.

I am working on getting the HELL OUT of these crack fiend infested  apartments and am looking forward to living in a place where I dont have to fear for my life on the trip from the car to the front door.

Sometimes, life can be overwhelming...and sometimes you dont realize how deep you are in until it is too late.  

I have not had a chance to send individual emails to all of you that have come to my rescue....I have been so busy trying to put back together the pieces of my life, I haven't had much time for the computer or emails.  I will be in touch with each of you as soon as time permits.  I cannot thank you all enough for your kindness, information and generosity...


LOL...Looks like I wasn't to speechless after all...but then again, when am I?!!

A HUGE THANK YOU to all of my family here in Clusterville!!

I love each and every one of you!!!

More info as soon as I know what the hell is going on in my life!

So glad things are getting a bit better for you Donna.  Damn we know how bad things can get, and its HARD with kids when things get like that.  My heart goes out to you.

As for the Lexapro.  Worked wonderfully for a friend of mine that was having some terrible chest pain due to anxiety.  It took about 3 days to start working though and the first couple days seemed like the anxiety got a little worse before it started getting better.  So if this does happen I *suggest* you give it a couple days at least before giving up on it.

Lexapro helps with sleep (hence why the script usually reads take at bedtime), joint aches & depression.  Great drug as far as I'm concerned.  It's an old one that's been tested and true.  

DD ........ best of luck with getting things together.  Glad to hear you got the help you needed !
