So nice meeting you here also, TryinginFL. .How would we get through the awful times if it wasn't for the wonderful supporting members here...Each day is a plus...It's nice to know you are never ever alone. .
To everyone here...I thank you for finding something positive everyday even if it's just washing your face and brushing your teeth..
Just remember, everyone, it's because we've been 'too strong too long' that lead us to cymbalta. .Now after cymbalta we go back to 'strong'! Positive quote for us to remember!

I all to we'll know, I stand by my culture of being Italian, having the gift of gab! Lol lol..Wouldn't want myself any other way. .
If you could only see my friends, family, and I together..Omg you would think you would be going through cymbalta withdrawl voter again with the head spins..lol lol...We are speaking Italian, english, cooking, sipping wine, yelling, our hands expressions, and who is doing what right...all at the same time....It's so high intense, comical, and full of love all rolled in one...It's a wonder how we just see this as a natural day...lol lol lol...

Carleeta, Congragulations on you Invitation!!!
Also, thank you for reminding me to reward myself. It's been a long time. My favorite perfumes are Creeds 'Spring Flower'(Spring) and Chanel#5 (Winter/Fall). I haven't worn them in a while, because DH is allergic. I rewarded myself by smelling them this morning. The scent reminds me of who I was and can be again.
You will get more invitations and hopefully you will accept. More people should hear from you

I laughed this morning, cried this evening...I felt in touch when I was having my tea reading your posts, much like EQWoman. Then reality took a few shots at me. My former neighbor, still good friend came over to tell me what happen at SXSW (South by Southwest Music festival) last night. He was there-is one of the all volunteer stage managers. And I think I have problems--what about the mother who lost her dtr. the one that lost her son and so on. YELLLLLLLINNNGGG
As I stood on my front porch talking to Jeff I noticed feathers around a bush where our mockingbirds lives. Lived. I am so down about that. This family of birds have been nesting here in what they thought was a safe place for 4 years only to be killed by a cat. Not sure if it was a feral or not.
I was up and then slammed face down. Muscle aches, GI upset. Going to try a hot bath.
And see! I put this in an inappropriate topic. Please forgive me.
One more rambling thought: those factories in India that FN shared w/us are evil--selling fake chemotherapy and other cancer medications, which usually run around $17,000. /month for breast CA. That is unforgivable.

Xman...Being Italian is a lot of work..lol lol lol...Oh, I'm sorry you are sad this evening..I remember how I used to cry at sad movies when I was young...I know now when I cry I'm really no different than when I was younger..infact, I'm glad I have emotion back..I am saddened about the mockingbird also..
My reward today was taking my son and daughter - in - law out to dinner tonight. What a treat that was for me..
In actuality I'm rewarded each time I read a member post their reward on this thread....

Gail, I try not to talk too much about "God stuff" here, as this isn't the place....but I am praying for all of us here every day...with special intentions for us as individuals as something is mentioned....
'Nuff said..... :-)
PS....how do I use emoticons like you guys do? I checked the "enable" box...where do I find them to insert them?
FiveNotions:
I don't speak of "God Stuff" much here on the forum but I am a Christian of the Methodist faith. What I like so much about this forum is that no matter what the religion/faith is, it really doesn't matter. We are all so supportive of one another. Whether it's sending positive thoughts, good wishes, healing vibes or prayers IMHO all that matters is that we are here for each other. To help each other through the journey of the hell of Cymbalta.
That's the way that I look at it. I am so glad that I found this forum. Very glad indeed!

xman....I feel so bad for you it is bringing tears again. Such terrible news and then the poor birds...
I hope your hot bath has helped you to settle down some -
And...EW..I agree with you that it makes no difference regarding faith or anything else - I am a Lutheran myself - we all care and support each other - no matter what! There are such wonderful and kind people on this forum that it is hard to believe when hearing the news around the world that such dear, supportive ppl really do exist - we have met them!
Hugs to all and good night!

fishinghat - I hope that you have wonderful weather and catch many fish tomorrow! What a wonderful positive - I gather this is one of the things that you enjoy most in life! Good luck to you... And may it be one of your better days!
Carleeta - Hooray for you - going out and biting the bullet! Of course, you emerged looking lovely I am sure - So proud of you!
...and the shopping too - WOW!! I am beginning to think that you are WonderWoman!!
My positive for today was having my massage therapy which was very relaxing. Other than that, this is not one of my better days - have needed both the Alprazolam and the Hydrocodone, but am looking forward to tomorrow. I see my therapist and I have
lots to say!
My hugs and prayers to all,
Liz

Last evening as my pain abated and I felt some energy, I bagged some leaves, pulled a few weeds and took pictures of a couple of my dogs in the bluebonnets. As Clareeta puts it that a little bit today and a bigger tomorrow...we shall see about today. But I was just happy that I felt the energy to do this and God knows my furry ones were happy to be put in their posing positions and to be out w/o a leash. I must admit we are fortunate at this point with the weather being nice. I really need to go out and take it on and "dilly dally" around the neighborhood!
