> I'm not trying to stir things up, Kid_A I think your response was really grounding. I have exhausted myself many times trying to find a way to put something, that won't have anything negative read into it,which is impossible because I know if I'm in a senstive frame of mind I'll find hurt anywhere.

Gabbi,Not to make this any worse than it already is; my text in its whole was: "yet seemingly disappeared", which can be read in one of the following ways:
Seeming
- adj 1. apparent; appearing, **whether truly or falsely**, to be as specified; a
seeming advantage.
-n 2. appearance, esp. outward or deceptive appearance.
-adv seeminglyPerceptions of people with severe mental illness are not always accurate and many on this board (myself included) do not see things the same way. I hope that makes some sense in clarifying things..... but I do think, however kid made the most sense in his above post.
