Mr.Cat,

Where are you now? Your message is an hour old before it reached me, and you were in the car 4 hours already. You have been going through a great deal for a long time; I read all the other communication you have had with Agora1 and others, so I'm up to par with the heavens raining down on you.

Are you still in the car?

Smellycat, please answer me. On Friends, "Smellycat" had to be the best awful song I ever heard trying to be "sung'? on TV....please answer me. Been reading all the conversation you had with others on this forum, so feel like I know you....no one else has received your post yet, guess I was the first, there will be others, but please just say hello to me......I'm the dumb one that thought at first you could use a calm bath, as "SmellyCat" was always sung by the female member of FRIENDS,

Are you still by the bridge? Oh, man....are you suicidal or just very scared?

I have a new friend and I call her sunshine.

I'm parked on the road daily waiting for something or someone. I drive for a living and being in that car 10 or 12 hours a day sometimes 14 or16 hours drive's me nuts because my brain is going faster than the car.

I'm Here, I just woke up and I was talking to my new friend sunshine. I work night's and I don't get home till wee hours of the morning so I sleep all day, I feel the same. Until my problems go away it won't change.

It's funny, last night I felt like a tiger and when I woke up I was that smelly little cat again .

I'm ok for now but tonight is another night, I meet so many people everyday and talk to them and sometimes vent but at the end of the day I still feel alone

Everyday is an adventure for me some days are good and some are bad and some are just amazing like yesterday but the thing is, I'm drained

Agora1 in reply to Smellycat123456

One word stood out for me. You used the word "amazing" . When we get those days, we must embrace them. Once those once in a while "amazing" days break through it can set a pattern for more to come. Feeling drained is the body's reaction to all you've been through. As your spirits lift and become more positive that things will work out one day at a time, you will feel less tired, less overwhelmed. Wishing you a great day. It can't be amazing all the time, that's life. :)
