Better Than PGP

Over the past couple of weeks, I have been reminded (again) at how many feelings I hurt in the past year. It seems that my personal encryption program is way better than PGP. (Too bad I can't make money off it.)

I apologize for all of the feelings that I've hurt. I don't intentionally keep information from people. It's just the way I was "trained". Sharing information wasn't always the best thing when I was growing up. Any sign of weakness could (and would) be used against you later. So I learned pretty quickly to keep my mouth shut.

But believe it or not, I'm getting better. (Well, I think I am. :-) And last week, the doc switched some of my medicines so hopefully, I won't be as exhausted any more. On a weekend, I literally could sleep for 14+ hours. How was I supposed to know that it was the medicines making me drowsy? Stupid doctors. (Of course, at least the side effects weren't talking voices and possible death. ;-)

Just know that I value all of my friends, and I am grateful to have all of you in my life.

We love you, too. And the voices in my head weren't *that* bad. Actually, hearing the doc say that the meds he was prescribing would eat my bone marrow and kill me was more disturbing than the voices...

Hmmm, 'fraid I might have something to do with this post. I hope you didn't take a little tongue in cheek joke personally -- certainly wasn't meant that way. You were not the only one to not getting around to saying anything until after, and I'm sure not very well placed to criticize given how awful a correspondent I am!!!!!!
Anyway, I hope the new meds help. It is awful to be constantly tired.
Take care,
K

All of us tends to hide a little bit of something! Some more than others, but as we get older we learn to not take things personally. Hey does that mean my weekly sessions are starting to work?

I hope you start feeling better soon! Please let me know if there is anything I can do for you guys.
