dear diary, i still cant sleep. And it driving me nuts. I think it is because the new meds that my doc prescribe to me. hmmm. But i think the meds work in someways. I can maintain my positive thinking most of the time now. rather than just 5 minits.

But at least there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Last weekend my good friend took me and force me to joint salsa class. I was feeling down, inferior and so unwanted at first. But then, the people there are so friendly. They approach me, talk o me, and so supportive on the lesson and also my social skills and some of them i found out have the same problem as mine. And went i am with them i felt i am apart of something. And i can take a brake from my problems.

I dont know i can work on everyone, but rite now i want to try to make it works for me. dear lord.. thank you..

hey man its good to hear you had fun and able to talk and share with others. keep going and meeting people, it does help. you won't feel so alone

eek. i have problems falling asleep too, so i know what you mean but i'm a nocturnal and i get stuffs done at night cos it's nice and peaceful.

the side effects usually will go off sooner or later, since it's a med you gotta give it some time.

Hey, you're not the only night-bird around.
A lot of late sleepers in Singapore actually I've come to realise.
At least you joined some salsa class. For me, I don't know if I even got the guts to join any class. I am a loner type at times.
How ah. You think I should try join some class? Maybe it may knock me out of my shell. :)

Hey too Abulia, hope you're feeling ok?
Stay hopeful no matter what. What else can we do?
At least you got things to do at night and enjoy the peaceful quiet of it.

Hey come on. Don't be so suicidal and negative, ok. It is not worth it, trying to kill yourself. I saw your profile. Your location is keyed in as, "hell".
Maybe if you could change that location description, you'd take that first step to feel a bit better?
Try it, trust me, it works.
Don't invite all these dark portals into your life.
I just hope you get better.
Me too, struggling to stay afloat and keeping mentally balanced. Darkness sometimes threaten my thoughts but for now, I am managing to stay balanced.
