Dear Dore,
I  too. I apologize for my outburst.I think that I have over reacted.
 :flowers :flowers :flowers
This morning I was very upset with myself and I suppose I vent it out on the wrong person.
I  am not feeling well at the current moment. take for example,,,,,,, this morning I burnt my kettle beyond recognition I forgot that I put the kettle on the fire for my morning coffee.

I've been missing  time and  when it happen, I seems to completely forgot about what I'm suppose to be doing ,this frightened me because I feel i'm losing my memory and I dont know how I will manage, I'm here alone with no close relatives other than my sons and they are busy with their lives.

I think the illness is taking its toll on me and it leaves me angry , bitter and very fustrated,
it comes down to I don't like myself and what I'm becoming.

I dont know much, but I'm sorry if I have said stuff that might have hurt anyone.
I know you genuinely care for me, thank-you all for your friendship. :hugfriend :hugfriend :hugfriend

I do care too again I'm sorry.
Kathy

Tadaaa :flowers

We'll be in touch by personal message. I dunno when, but time will tell me. I think I may say that I know how you feel.
I hope you feel better soon. I dont know of it helps, but I try to write once a week in my diary (after 4 years). Now I know that I dont have to remember everything; it's in that book. There is a song by Maria Mene wherein she is singing that she thinks too much. The music has a lovely little tune. I dunno why I say that.

Bipolar disorder is an illness that affects thoughts, feelings, perceptions and behaviour ... even how a person feels physically. It's probably caused by electrical and chemical elements in the brain not functioning properly and is usually found in people whose families have a history of one or more mental illnesses. (While we're at it, let's be clear about something: a "mental illness" is one that affects the mind, not one that's all in the mind.)

Bipolar has one of the highest mortality rates of all mental illnesses. One in 5 patients die by suicide. Often alcohol & substance abuse are common in patients with bipolar disorder. Panic disorder, ADHD (attention deficit hyperactive disorder) & BPD (borderline personality disorder) are also associated with bipolar.

Dear Manal,
yes I've been diagnosed by a psychiatrist and I'm still under her care,
NO I'm not on medication, My LIver and KIdney is already damaged and It is not wise to take psyc medications,
I don't need medication I'm not a threat to society, only a treat to myself, For thirty years I hold a job and could cope okay it seems that as I get older gone through menopause it has worstened top it with sickle cells and thal minor its all too much.compound with
Diabetics , Livers and kidney disease doesnt help either,

Most of the time I'm in control but at times I just lose it and this is the time whem i need to recognise and sit it out.

Dear Manal,
I posted about my mental illness inorder to bring awareness to everyone that having Sickle cells and thal gene can and it affects every parts of ones'  life if left untreated for so many years it can be detrimental in the later years of the sufferers lives.

I firmly believe that it all happen when my bloodcells is in reproductions and my organs e;g brain, ect,  is not getting oxygen, take it into considerations  that most of the time sufferers of this illness function on 50%of oxygen in thier blood in comparison to  a normal healthy body without this illness ,

I also like to bring awarenes that we need to treat our children with lots of love and dignity so that in the later years of their lives they recognised and know thier selfworth and can cope with what life deal to them.

Yes I do believe I'm a strong person otherwise I wouldnt have survive untill now,

Nonethe less despite of my age I'm still learning about life and I hope in the process I can make a contribution to humanity by talking about my life experience and my struggles.

I know young children need the most attention and by no mean give them,I'm not here to outshine them I can never do that.

I found that in society in general people don't have time for people like me and others with mental illness,we are classified in little compartment and outcast in society, just because there has been taboos and the disregard of thier personal human value .

By now I dont expect or really need validation, I know who I am, but from time to time I feel,  I have the need to be part of the human race that is because most of the time " I"M HERE" :wink

I hope I am making myself understood thank-you for being there and maybe the next mental ill person you   all meet will get a nod :biggrin
I conclude this posting by wishing you all good fortune in life, make the most of every opportunity that arises because tomorrow is promise to no one,

I care
kathy

Hello,

Lots of things have happened since I wrote fot the last time about Andres and Javier. I hope all of you are ok again in a short time and I'm glad that the forum is again a pacific place.

About Andres, he's ok, I'll transfer all your support again to the family.

About the boys having the transplant, I hope everything goes right and they leave behind thalassemia.

About immigration because of thal or other diseases, I'm going in 5 minutes to see my colleage of thal in my hospital. He's a boy of 10 years old. He's from Bulgaria and came from there in September with his family. They just moved because they thought the kid was going to have a better medical attention in Spain. I don't know the reason why some countries still refuses ill people (I believe it is just a matter of anciety of the laws), but within the European Union there is no problem to move from a country to another. I think this is the way this should be in general but it is very difficult to make politicians understand something like the need to emigrate because of the medical care (I do participate from a political party and I can tell you that it is very difficult to make them see the problem of the Health System in some countries and the reason why people come here since we have a public system and everybody have access to everything).

Well, again I thank you your good thoughts about Andres and I'll give you an update as soon as I have more news.

Kisses to you all!!!
The most important thing in life is not what you achieve but the fact of fighting for it.

Sometimes , He sends us failure so we can be humble.
Sometimes , He sends us illness so we can take better care of our selves.
Sometimes , He takes everything away from us so we can learn the value of everything we have.
