I know this probably won't make much sense. I can't tell you all specifically what is wrong because I want to protect someone. I just got some news last night that deeply hurt me. Deeply. It has been brewing for some time. However frank honesty and talking through it is going on. My heart is broken and so is my trust. I was warned by my DR that this could throw me into another depression and I fear that I'm slipping. If you believe in prayers, please say one. Otherwise, I would appreciate any words of encouragement. You all mean the world to me. I just wish I could be more specific and pour out my heart. Love, Alicia.

Oh, Alicia, I'm so sorry for whatever it is that is hurting you so deeply. You know you don't have to be specific in your prayer request. We can still ask Him to wrap his arms around you and comfort you during this difficult time.
You have been through so much lately. I pray that you will have the strength to get through this. You know we are here for you!
I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. ((((Big hug))))

I'm so sorry you are hurting. Trust is such a precious and fragile thing.
Can you vent all this out to your doctor? I wish I could say something to make you feel better. I'm just so sorry your heart is breaking. It's such a big heart, too!
I hope you take care of yourself. Vent away to anyone or anywhere you feel safe.
How are you doing? Please check in if you can.
Love and big (((((((((HUGS))))))))) to you.

I'm feeling a bit better. Still extremely hurt, but it's going to be that way for some time, I think. After several long talks I understand the situation more clearly and am trying to cope. The next week however is going to be overwhelmingly difficult for reasons I can't begin to explain. I'm going to fight. I'm going to try to fight off this depression. I've alerted all my family and friends and told them that I really need them this week. Thank you for your happy thoughts/prayers. You all mean so much to me.

Unfortunately, the cause of the problem that I thought that was going to go away by Friday is not. I'm trying to lighten the load by having faith that things will be OK. My trust is broken yet I must trust again. I have no choice. I'm fighting so hard to avoid a depression. Thank you all for your kind thoughts /prayers. I'm fighting!!!!!!!! Love to all, Alicia.

Alicia, this beyond sucks.
I send you warrior energy. Be a psychological Amazon, a Cassandra, a Helen, a Morgaine, a 'Han Solo.'
Sometimes I get bent, but I'm never broken. There's a part of me that no one can break. She keeps rising like a phoenix from the ashes of pain.
Strength. I hope you're driving the Chariot. I hope you influence the Wheel. I hope Justice reveals herself. This, I send you on a Star. The World renews herself everyday. I know the Moon is smiling upon you. When you're ready, you will leave the Tower.
Kate.

What I predicted would happen happened. ON MY BIRTHDAY. I called the person partially responsible a schmuck. I would really love to slap some faces and give some knuckle sandwiches. Fortunately, I'm not a violent person. Going to see the DR today for meds. Still fighting the depression but it's getting harder and harder. Thanks for all your support. Alicia.

You aren't in this all alone! We'll be here for you and try to help you through.
Road trip to Canada....so we can all hug ya and go beat up the schmuck who has hurt you...whatever it was they did! You don't deserve to be treated badly by anyone. Remember that none of this is your fault! Try not to let the dorks do this to you! I know, easier said than done, especially for us sensitive souls who get hurt more easily and feel hurt more deeply.
We love you, hon! Keep in touch, please. I'm glad you are going to your doctor today.

Hey there, Cutie!
It's so hard to offer any kind of help when we don't know all the circumstances -- and I know ZIP! But I think I get the gist of the problem.
Do you recall my mentioning "The Shelf" in previous posts? Our own Miss Barbie taught me about it. I was VERY close to a gal who broke my heart. She claimed she loved me, but then, about a year ago, she proved otherwise. I fell apart. Barbie helped me through it all by telling me NOT to contact the friend, NOT to e-mail her, but to do NOTHING except put her up on The Shelf and leave her there, where I can bring her back down at any time IF I WANT.
Okay, it was hard to do, to put my friend up there on The Shelf. I kept bringing her back down, to try to hold onto her, but Barbie kept telling me, "put her back up there!" I wanted to contact my so-called friend SOOOOO badly, but Barbie insisted. She knew all the circumstances.
It turned out Barbie was right. (Don'tcha hate it when that happens?) While my so-called friend is still up on The Shelf, I sometimes have a hard time finding her. I never take her down any more, but I know she's there nevertheless.
I found that it's best to not say anything. Sometimes our silence speaks much louder and with more meaning, but can never come back to bite us like words can.
Good luck, Alicia.

FIGHT! You're on the right track by seeing your doc. re: meds. Don't be hopeless. Don't be helpless.
I wish I could muster up more encouraging phrases. I'm sending you lots of helpful rays/light/energy. I'll meditate on Shakti.

Thanks Bev, as always, you give wonderful advice. Unfortunately this person can't be put on a shelf. I think you know why. This person is about the only person in the world that I absolutely cannot put on the shelf. We have to work it through the hard way.
Hugs, Alicia.

The situation h as been resolved. Have to deal with all the emotional fallout, but it is over. Time to start rebuilding that trust. Thanks for all your support. I feel terrible - depression is there, but I'm still fighting. Love, Alicia.

I'm a science geek, so I don't really understand what is going on and fail at good words of comfort, so...what Kate said. Squared.
