In Reply to: Think this is sleep paralysis - Anita
My boyfriend had these episodes where he would be falling asleep and then get real tense and start breathing heavy and fast... and i'd try to wake him... and it would take minutes. okay probably seconds... but it felt like forever.
then he would say that he was trying to open his eyes and speak, but couldn't, and describes what you are describing, with a few differences. I looked it up and found sleep paralysis. It sounds very much like this...
it only happens every once in awhile to him, but I sure get so scared when it happens. sounds silly, but it is freaky to see him tense up and know something is happening that i can't stop!!

If a person hasn't had a period in 13 years, doesn't that
My money is riding on the tumor theory posted below.

What a hateful person you are. Sorry to hear you're
Gosh.
You're right. It's totally dead. Just that Cat Person. Why?

Wow, you're a really miserable person, aren't you?

I didn't judge anyone. I said, I'm going to Heaven and you're not to that person and
according to the Bible that is true. There was no judging in the post.
You're worried about the mother? Doesn't sound like she did a very good job herself! nm

scares me
I wouldn't want my children attending a college in Utah.
It scares me.
A few weeks ago H and I had the TV on though we were not really watching it. I was working on a sewing project and H was reading a gmagazine. It seemed every commercial was a 'How I Met Your Mother" trailer and that guy who used to play Doogie Houser would come on and brag about how he had sex with 200 women. I popped up and said "gosh I wished they would not play that right now while the kids are still up and can hear." It was early in the evening. My 8-year-old informed me that she and her friends talk about it already. I asked her what it was, she said that S word. I told her that sex was not a dirty word but having sex with 200 people is not cool and a person could get real sick doing that. I asked what they say but she never would give me a straight answer. I have to try to figure out how to have a conversation with my kids about it now.
His speaking out against it would scares me too. (nm)

It scares me too, I have using Iams dry
for over 20 years with good luck thus far, canned friskies as an evening treat and so far, everyone is still healthy (knocking on wood). I am scared to switch to anything because of all this stuff, I love my cats, don't want to lose them.
OMG Cat that scares the Holy Cr*p out of me when
I was back in Arkansas one year, I slept through one! The next day they took me out to tour the damage. Holy Moly!
Yes, it scares the yell out of me. sm
When it first came on, I didn't want to watch it because the subject matter really frightened me. My family got me started on it, though, saying what a great show it is. It sure does make me think about what could happen if something like that were to occur, being under martial law and all of that.
I know you are right. That is what scares me now. I simply SM
don't care about myself at all anymore. I have been lost in the process of just trying to keep afloat. Thank you so much for sharing your experience with me.
I'm fascinated at what scares men.
The owner of the company I work for has confessed a fear of needles, and so has a male friend from work. The former goes to foreign countries where nobody speaks English and we don't have an embassy, where hoodlems may break in and steal his passport, yet he's afraid of mere needles. Bear in mind he has a whole greenhouse full of needle-bearing plants and also areas of garden loaded with them. You can't go near these agaves and yuccas without becoming a human pincushion, so how is that different than needles? Then my friend at work seems to love pain - loves to play paintball - apparently it hurts to get shot - and do other physical activities that cause pain. He's not afraid of pain, but is afraid of needles. What gives? I'm afraid of spiders, but not snakes. Give me a shot and I don't even stop talking or acknowledge it. But throw a ball at me and I duck in fear. Send me out on the streets without my navigation system and I'm a wreck.
i don't want to scare you....
This could be completely off the wall and hopefully like the other say it is a complete jealousy issue but I think you need to actually take it seriously, because as lame as this is, I was browsing on myspace... (yea im only 26! lol) but i came across some disturbing profiles... and it turns out there is a HUGE community of adults that LOVE to wear diapers and act like babies. I honestly thought it was a joke until you just kept clicking on all these different profiles which just led you to MORE profiles (dont know if you know how it works)... but it was like this whole diaper fetish. It really was gross to me... I know your child is only 5 years old but hopefully you can put an end to it while he's still young an impressionable. I really went back and forth about posting this at all cause I don't want to act like I'm being pessimistic or think this has ANYTHING to do with the future of your son... i just thought I'd let you know... sorry if i offended anyone!
What a scare!!
My dad was over here and I had an extra hamburger from Sonic. He was eating it and got choked on a pickle. I thought OMG What do I do? He was in the floor on his knees, red faced, gasping for air, and I went over and took the base of my palm and hit pretty hard between the shoulder blades. It came out. I need to learn the Heimlach (sp?). What a scary ordeal.
sorry, His speaking out against it would scare me too.

That's the part that would scare me (sm)
My daughter is grown, thank goodness. I don't have to deal with this decision. If I did have a daughter school age, I would be more concerned with the consequences years down the road from this vaccination. It is just too new, in my opinion, and Gov. Perry is trying to shove it down our throats. I would strongly object.
scare tactics
Their "logic" (sic)has been around for years. I'm an old hippie and when I was in college (a large university), every religious freak around said it was THE END because of our sinful ways. We can't change destiny...just trust God and live for each day at a time. Don't let them terrorize you & your family over something they have no way of knowing any more than you do.
Cities scare the poop out of me...
I don't even like to visit cities, much less live in one. I lived 20 minutes outside of Boston my whole life and NEVER visited it for funsies. I only went there as a kid for field trips, and to Logan Airport a few times as an adult. I have some sort of meltdown/panic disorder when it comes to traffic, tunnels, tall buildings, and angry people...which are plentiful in that neck of the woods. Everyone all hopped up on their fancy-pants Starbucks shouting all angry-like on their cell phones...gives me the heebs just thinkin' about it!
Yep, whole other food chain those cities are.
Since when have belittling and scare tactics
ever done anything except exacerbate/escalate this kind of situation. Will reiterate the obvious. You should be helping yourself and deal with your own abuse issues before trying to "help" someone else, if this is the best you can do. This is also coming from someone who has BTDT.
Scare tactics and the economy ? sm
 Anyone else experiencing people using the current economic crisis as an "end of the world" prediction? I would have used the "OTHER" board but some of these people are too "out there." We have a few members of our family scaring the heck out of the kids in the family that this is the "end" and you know the rest. Supposedly we're only going to be here until 2012 and then it's "all over" so they better give up their wordly ways and follow them. I'm so sick of it, I feel that this is the time for all of us to band together and ride out the storm. I'm tired of people trying to "steal" my kids' minds. How do you shut these people up? Some of them are on that "social" network, assembling the family together so we can all share our resources and band together for the big coming of the end. I'm just so very upset right now -- isn't it bad enough that we are struggling. I think things will get better as we get more and more into a stable financial picture. We were just living "too high on the hog" and things will get better. I don't think we're all going to perish. Why can't we just try to be happy and get through it? Why can't it be a new beginning instead of the saved vs. the unsaved and the "end" coming?
Americans are such suckers for SCARE tactics
imposed on us daily by the corporate media.
That's not to say don't be concerned and vigilant - just not to cave everytime they decide to scare us with propaganda.
WHAT is the school supposed to DO about "it" anyway?
In MHO, call your lawyer NOW... he is teaching your children to be afraid, overreact, and believe every scare tactic that comes down the pike.
Need advice - ex has pulled my kid out of school re MRSA scare
My son lives with his dad 500 miles away. It was his birthday today, he's 13 and in 8th grade. I called to wish him happy birthday. He said his dad had pulled him out of school due to paranoia about MRSA (staph infections) outbreaks. I asked him if there'd been any in his school, he said no, just some of the surrounding communities. He said his dad won't let him go back to school until the school "does something abou it". The ex got on the phone demanding I look up two vaccinations for it online and give my opinion "because I'm in the health field". I type radiology, for goodness sake, and even if I was familiar with the names of the drugs, it doesn't mean I'd know all about them just because I could spell them!
Upon researching this, it appears the chances of getting fatal MRSA are pretty slim, and I had much more chance getting it when I worked on site in the hospital than my son does (son does not play sports if he can keep from it). I think my ex is off the deep end, and I'm afraid I might have to take him to court (again) to force him to let the child go to school. His school is closed tomorrow so I'll have to wait until Monday to call them and see how long my son has actually been absent.
Anybody have any advice for me? How long should I give my ex to work through his paranoia before I call a lawyer (again)? Has anyone else taken their kids out of school over this?
Hey, have at it. If you want a lazy, apathetic, not affectionate, doesn't listen, doesn't make
can reach him!!! Let me know if you're interested.
It doesn't make me mad but it doesn't sound intelligent either (sm)
I am sure if all of those people who were aborted were living, some would be good and some would be bad, in the same proportion as there is good to bad now. Your statement makes no sense. So somehow the babies who were aborted were meant to be aborted because they were bad seeds? Whatever. Sorry, that's just silly.
It doesn't always work that way though - some give but it doesn't come back like that nm

Are you a night person or a morning person?
Just curious . . .
It probably varies from person to person (sm)
With me, first child I was out of the bed seriously within 5 minutes of having him. I didn't tear or have to be cut, he was 7 pounds, 3 ounces. The doctor did some type of vaginal massage on me though while I was in labor and that was supposed to help loosen the vaginal wall?
Second child, same experience. She was 8 pounds, 1 ounce and within 5 minutes of having her, while they took her to the nursery to get cleaned up and all, I walked downstairs with my husband to the cafeteria to get a drink and stretch my legs. I had already put my regular clothes back on as well. My doctor who delivered her was walking in my room as I was walking in and he was stunned a second and said he thought I was a visitor, LOL, not the patient.
I don't think you have to have bed rest in normal cases. With my son I went home within 24 hours with him and with my daughter we went home in only 20 hours.
You're not 'low-class', you're FUNNY, & a good writer!
Which is often the case then someone is the first to cast stones!
You're surprised? I'm not. They're not going to stop voting....
as was mentioned in a prior post. Imagine if they succeed? They just may.
At least you wait until they're cooked! LOL...we're raw dough
s
Sounds like you're doing great! We're also making out...sm
daughter pay for gas and insurance when she starts driving. She hasn't started driving yet because she doesn't want to get a job to pay for that privilege. That's her choice. We're also making her pay 1/2 of the fees for the state required driver's education course.
No, I am not that person...sm
Nor am I trying to be ugly...I think YOU come first in this situation. If not, you'll get in deep trouble with your health, then what? Your family needs you...take care of yourself, and make your husband pitch in...that's all I'm sayin'
Who is this person?
I have no clue who this person is.
I saw a person having 1 of those 1 day
and they could do like all the other people around, just ignored it. I was in a public building, guy down and frothing at the mouth, not a good scene but totally ignored.
What do you think causes a person to be --sm
unable to show feelings/compassion for anyone else? I have a friend?? who shows no emotion at all. Says it is the way she was brought up and her family are not talkers. I shared some devastating news about my son with her last night and she has shown more sympathy to her dog after it was spayed than she did to me. Just do not understand how someone can see a person as broken as I was last night and offer absolutely no comfort.
I think that person needs more than just a
xx
Perhaps you could help me tell if this person is just like you or not?
If not that is fine, but you could probably use your "talent" to help others, like a PI or something.
Are you the same person who
posted a month or so ago having sent an e-mail to your husband's family regarding your husband's brother who is in jail and the father's apparent favortism? Just curious if this is the same family we are talking about. I remember that husband was bipolar and alcoholic.
I don't know the legalities of the situation but you might have to go through the garbage of calling the police, the dramatics and the ER one last and final time. But then be done with it. He's not choosing to get better and you can't make him. Change the locks.
Be strong. Hugs to you. 
Mom of 3 you are one nasty person...
I hope your children dont take after you. Teaching them responsibility is one thing but pure nastiness is another.....
What a Wonderful Person
I wish I knew more people like you. It's too bad that some people are like this, but unfortunately the world is so much different thatit used to be. Keep doing what makes you happy.
The person who last had our number...sm
still uses it, so we get calls for her all the time! We got this number over a year ago when we moved and constantly get calls for her. We always tell them this is not her number anymore, but I guess lately she's been using it to give to loan places because they told us this. They apologize but it still stinks. She has a lot of debt out there, especially for school loans. We don't want to change it, though, and go through the same thing again and having to tell everyone our new number for nothing. We're also signed up at the Do Not Call website.
how condescending can a person be?
After I had a surgery 2 years ago, I gained an incredible amount of weight - not water. Last May I started going to the pool and doing water aerobics every single day for 2 months and changed to a low-fat diet. I did not lose weight, but I was replacing fat with muscle, which is the first step with the amount of weight I was dealing with. Then I started getting one URI and sinus infection/ear infection after another. All that exercise kicked my GI tract into hyperdrive. Now I have IBS and colitis. I can't exercise because I have to battle real and exhausting pain for the next 2 hours. I have pain every single day. I no longer have hunger pains as normal people do, so I really do have problems knowing when it is appropriate for me to eat. I've been with 2 different GI's during this time, failed 5 or 6 different medicines, and still can't lose weight, diet or exercise. My pay has been cut in half. I had to quit my second job and only work part time now instead of full time - all because I wanted to get healthy and in shape again.
The next time you think having extra weight is a choice, let me invite you to pay the $600/month I pay for medicines to control my GI tract issues.
I usually tip 15% because I also tip the shampoo person.,,,,
But if the hairdresser does it all, including the shampoo, etc., I tip closer to 20%.
I would say either try a contact person where the
contact may be someone in the Social Services for your state. Maybe even the Division of Child Welfare. I would look in the phonebook under government agencies. I bet a social worker may be able to help or guide you in the right direction. I knew someone who had a child with cerebral palsy that took the insurance offered from the employer, but was able to get Medicaid for the child as a supplement for things the primary did not cover. I am not sure if this is state-by-state though. Hope this helps. Good luck to you and your daughter as her children do need health insurance.
To The Person Who E-mailed Me
The calling card is yours if you want, but I didn't receive a reply address; the "From" field was blank for some reason. If you could resend, that would be great!
I think it depends on the person....
xx
It seems to me the person should be talking
to the person they are having dinner with and not someone on a phone. And as posted below, they usually have to talk rather loud and I do find that annoying.
To the person who e-mailed me...
Thanks so much for the information about BioSpot. I had no idea and I should have done my research beforehand. I have already ordered it but will be sending it back. I finally figured out that the Zodiac has been making my dog very itchy, so much so she has a hot spot now. Used it before but did not put two and two together. I think I will try the Frontline.
Thanks again for the warning! Hope your cat is doing better now.
