- HELP others and myself

Thanks for nominating my blog, shebutterfly! That's very sweet of you. And I'm so flattered that you thought of my blog first! So does this mean I get the award, or am I just in the running? Also, do I post my philosophy on here, or on my blog?
ReplyDeleteApril, you were the first I thought of!! I'm pretty sure that you're supposed to post your philosophy on your blog, and that everyone who was nominated can post the award... at least that's the way I understood it anyway. :) How are you doing?
ReplyDeleteI'm doing ok. I'm coming out of one of my "blah" episodes (I think). I've managed to accomplish a few things yesterday and today, which is good. How are you?
ReplyDeleteyay- you are welcome!
ReplyDeleteThanks for following me (through MBC)! That prompted me to check out your blog, which I feel like I was meant to find. I have a very mild case of post-pardum depression, and I think you have so much courage for putting your story out there for everyone to read.
ReplyDeleteI admire your strength, and look forward to following you and providing supportive comments throughout your journey!
Hi there Butterfly :) i hope your flittering around beautifuly today. Congrats on your award btw i see you passed it on to sparkle and shine, is that me???? i clicked the link to check but links broken............... all i can say is, if this is for me then i am truely honoured and amazed............... if its not for me im still intrigued to find another sparkle and shine :) so its all good................... im so pleased as this has given me the push to stop lurking and be brave to say hello x x x x
ReplyDeleteYup that was you! Sorry! I fixed the link! I love your blog. :)
ReplyDeleteThat's good that you got some stuff done yesterday ((HUG)) I can totally relate. I'm doing okay. Trying to climb my way out of a funk myself. I think my meds need some further adjusting.
ReplyDeleteawww bless you sweetheart ty soooo much im chuffed and i'm even more chuffed that you enjoy my blog :) i will be posting again once im feeling more human :) thanks again hun i will say hello more often now weve spoken x x x x
ReplyDeleteThank you, K. I am notoriously bad about passing these things on, but I will try to remember to do it next time I blog (which, who knows when that will be.)
ReplyDeleteCan I just add that I really admire you for writing this blog? It can't be easy but you are doing a good thing by putting all this out there. It will help people, of this I'm sure. The more of us who blog about depression and other mental illnesses, the better.
J, aww shucks! I have to say that I feel a little bad when people say that I'm putting all out there when I know that I'm not even using my own name... for obvious reasons, of course... but it is very therapeutic in many ways. And if I can help just one person know that other people the same way... well that makes me feel kinda good.
ReplyDeleteDon't feel like you have to pass the award along, I know that you have a lot going on in your own life, but I just wanted you to know that I respect you so much and your honest and authentic blog was part of the inspiration for me putting myself out there.
