I HAVE BEEN FEELING DOWN I never realized how important talking is. Usually if I am lonely, I call a friend. Other times, they call me. The past 5 days have been depressing. I can't call anyone and my friends know they can't call me. I would be tempted to say something if they called so I told them better not to. There are things I needed to deal with and not being able to call regarding those matters, has been difficult. Thankfully only 4.5 days to go to end these 10 days of silence that the doctor ordered. I hope it's alright to put this in a post. I guess I needed to vent. Thanks for listening. Elaine Shuel |

Thanks Pat. Yes, I am counting the days. It is harder than I thought. For me, it is difficult because I can't speak to my friends. Thanks for caring.  Elaine Shuel

My sister said she was thrilled but she changed her mind. She now has to read what I write on the pad.  Thanks for the laugh, knxldy. Elaine Shuel

I am so sorry to hear that Elaine. I understand your frustrations for not talking to another but if that's what the doctors advice you, then you follow him. You will be fine. You are in my prayers. Take care! "The only way to have a friend is to be one."

Take care! There are worse things than not talking for 10 days. I am just feeling depressed but it will pass.Elaine Shuel

Thank you, Akamatt. I know you can and that's because I have friends here. Thanks for being one of them. Elaine Shuel

Thanks Puzzles. You aren't far off. I made the odd mistake of saying something to myself, out loud. Elaine Shuel

Elaine I cannot imagine not being able to talk. You cant even talk to yourself either. I guess I would have a writing pad with me everywhere if I wasn't allowed to talk. I could put my thoughts and frustrations on paper. You are halfway there now so hang in there.

Sometimes I prefer to "go silent"Elaine,especially when I am going through panic and anxiety. I feel I can work my way through it and not havinvg to chat can have its benefits. You are almost there.

It really is the best I could do. I am now more than halfway. It ends Sunday night at midnight.Elaine Shuel
