Do YOU have a sleeping disorder?

you spend so much time focusing on what's wrong with you, you almost make yourself into a self-fulfilling prophecy you know? lol
Like "Ohhh I have a sleeping disorder" and then you go to a website to do a "test" to confirm you have one. So this online test says something is wrong with you and therefore, something must be wrong with you..that totally makes no sense LOLOL
You really have to learn not to think about the problems so much. If the negative stuff is always so present in your mind, you are basically spending the best years of your life without actually LIVING them. You're just alive then you know?
anyhoo......you'll work it out. Just don't let life pass you by because you are intent on labelling yourself with different disorders.
It's not that i focus my time on what is wrong with me, it just so happens that is what i choose to blog about.
It so happens that i came across a test that allows people who THINK they may have a problem with their sleeping habits, that perhaps they should check it out. I do know many people who have issues sleeping but do not take any measures to seeking treatment. It is purely for informative measures.
And for somebody to tell me that i should simply forget about what plays a HUGE part of my life when clearly, that IS MY WAY of trying to heal myself, whether you or anyone likes it or not... is MY issue.
I clearly know that this these are the best days of my life. But if i can't blog about it or even talk to my friends about what goes in my head to get it out of my system. I choose not to sit at home and let it eat me alive. HENCE THE REASON why i reopened this blog, seeked medical attention and bothered even telling my family!
I don't expect you or anyone to understand. So this debate can go on and on. I'm not arguing with you and neither am i saying that i am crazy. I am simply, showing that YES i do have issues but YES i am capable of living my life like everyone else, only difference is it involves a lot more work!
I wasn't attacking your decision to blog about stuff. Obviously the fact that you CAN say how you feel whenever you want to is something I (as a fellow blogger) can appreciate. You just have to keep in mind that whether or not I'm your sister, I have the right (as a regular reader of your blog) to comment.
I know you're trying. I never said you weren't. No, I don't know what's in your head, but that isn't actually my fault. You, as my sister, have chosen not to share that part of your life with me. Whatever your reasons for that, I respect them because I love you.
So when I come here armed with 10% of the knowledge of what makes you, YOU, then you can't honestly blame me for reacting the way I do. I can only comment on what I know of you.
All I am saying is, keep going with the positive stuff. It wasn't your taking of the test, but your response to the results. Your "Great" seemed defeatist. As if you had taken the results to define who you are and didn't question it. I understand it was informational/just-for-fun, but again not knowing your intentions caused me to question why you would put yourself through it.
I dunno Stinky, you just can't have expectations of me reacting differently when I don't have enough information. That's all *shrug*
It *IS* easy to tell someone to just live life, especially when that someone has gone through just about the same amount of hell as you have. You may not think that the fact that I had to live in a truck for a month is as bad as your depression, but to me it was exactly the same feeling. Not making a comparison because we're totally different in the way we approach problems, just putting things into perspective for you.
anyway I'm off to go teach :o\ we're doing "grammar gambling" so hopefully learning verbs etc won't be boring when it's like Vegas!
love you!
Whether or not i took a test and knew what the results were is just my initial response to it... just the same as if i had decided to write "oh no". If anything, i take interest in finding out why i am the way i am. Or researching topics that i know little about.
And it just so happens that the internet allows me to educate myself. And for those people who DO bother to return to my blog, it's my way of telling them something that i previously knew nothing about and MAYBE there is SOMEONE who is going through the same thing as me.
Don't take it personally just because i didn't share every single secret and every hurdle with you or with anyone for that matter, doesn't mean that i'm blaming anyone. FYI even people i call my close and best friends, i only just scrape the surface... if anything, they know just as much as you do.
Yes that is my choice and perhaps it is my handicap. Just as it is easy for me to tell others not to bottle up their feelings when i do just that. Yes call me a hypocrite.
I don't have any expectations of you, i never did.
I won't get into it but you, if anybody, will know that we went our separate ways, for reasons that are personal to you. But during which time, i grew up to be some other person and we lost a huge sister bonding chapter - obviously not an excuse but it just so happened that it turned out that way.
Comparing who's life is shittier is pointless because EVERYONE has a sad story to tell. And as you mentioned we ARE VERY different, we've always agreed. I know that you love and care for me deeply but my anger and frustration is not aimed at you but to what has become of me.
