Title: Need a Buddy
Post by wobwood55 on Sep 12^th, 2007, 4:03pm

Hi

Im Robert, and honestly I could use a buddy.
I love this site but once i get a month or so into my cycle I cant look at a computer monitor for very long, making it difficult to stay in touch when i need it the most.
My cycle starts in Oct so im kinda crapping my pants right now. lol. I could use someone to talk to that can relate to this beast called CH. If you yahoo IM im there under wobwood55 or we can just talk here. ok, i guess thats it.

Hi Robert,
Sorry you have a need for this support group but glad you are here. I don't think you want me to be your friend as I am grumpy, grouchy, sarcastic and have frequent headaches. Oh, wait, I just descibed a bunch of people here...never mind...
Listen, can you add even one minute to your life by worrying? Nope. So, you are armed with a good idea when the cycle will start, hopefully you have an abortive, transitional meds, and preventative. Hopefully you have oxygen. Once armed and ready for battle, the most excellent thing to do is carpe diem-seize the day! Live, laugh, enjoy.

PM me anytime.
PFDAN y'all

Hi Robert! Welcome to ~~crazyville~~ Clusterville!

I'm a supporter, not a sufferer, but I hang out here a lot doing what I can to boost spirits and make sure everyone tows the line (no wait - now I'm channeling Helen).

Nevermind - I'm glad you found us and if you have a partner or a friend or a spouse who helps you manage the beast , we can help them, too. Send them here and tell them we don't bite (hard) and we all know what they go through. Sometimes it's enough to just know you're not alone.

Here in clusterville we're like family - so come on in - set a spell- and bring your real family if you like. There's always room for more.

Robert,
You have plenty of buddies..we'll call you, fax you, IM you, call your next of kin, even kick your door in if necessary!
I'm glad you came forward- please don't be alone in this affliction. There's a lot to be learned from this bunch about coping with ole beastie!
Maybe we need a San Jose M&G!
Hang tough, Robert, let us know what you need!

Look out your window around 3 AM. I'll be the guy on your front lawn in camo, playing bag pipes and grilling sausages.

C'mon down. We'll chat. Bring a lawn chair.

But watch out for Chewy -- he'll try to talk you into going to the bath-house. Don't do it.... ;;D He's led many an unsuppecting boy astray.... trust me on this one.

Seriously, this place is open 24/7 and someone is always awake and ready with the support.

Yep, I'm usually around late-ish, since I'm nearly a left-coaster.

Feel free to PM me anytime--occasionally I'm in chat as well, along with certain other reprobates, plotting disorder.

Best,

George
