Tue, 22 Jan 2008 04:15:38 +0000 http://www.livedtotell.com/2006/07/19/the-first-attempt/#comment-6282 I am starting from the beginning reading your site...I didn't realize you began so long ago. It is ironic because the beginning of my breakdown happened because a Soldier died on August 6, 2006--and I became his casualty officer. It was the beginning of my meltdown although I didn't realize it. You ARE not alone! This is a fact. Thank you.

I felt so alone, and I thought that perhaps there were others out there who felt the same. I think it's wonderful that you are now taking a photography class. I have always been fascinated with photography as well. The only thing I can add is take it one day at a time, don't give up, and it's never too late. I really have to believe that. Thank you so much for visiting. I hope that you will come back again. Tammy People like you are the very reason I started this blog.

You sound so much like me. How familiar your words sound to my ears. I have always wanted to write, to help others, and to make a difference. I have always felt like I haven't accomplished enough in my now 44 years, but have felt that way since my 20's. I have been depressed and on antidepressants before, but no longer take them. Sometimes I do not know how I get through a day. I do not have the panic attacks, but I really feel empathy for you, you describe it so well. I have three good friends and do not make friends well nor do I know how to socialize. I have better days than others, but mostly I feel I am a melancholy woman, and don't know why? I am currently taking a photography class a couple of hours a week which my girlfriend gave to me as a birthday gift, another thing I've always loved but never pursued. I have to admit I have felt much better just getting out and doing something. My children are 28 and 14. I have taken college classes, but could never stick it out to get a degree. I still have the desire to do it though. My long-time goal was to have one by 40. I surpassed that age with no degree in hand. I feel like such a failure. It's just good to find someone else like me. Thanks. Hi, I just found your blog from the wordpress support forum and I must tell you after briefly skimming over it, that it was like reading something I myself would write.
