I LOVE me just the way I am!

I know you mean well, but meditation has been a life-saver for me better than medication, so I don't agree. Can we agree to disagree?

Chef learns sign language in order to communicate with deaf diners Chef Tatsuya Sekiguchi wants everyone who enters his restaurant to feel welcome, and when he learned that a deaf couple had a reservation for dinner, he decided to learn American Sign Language (ASL) in order to communicate with them. Sekiguchi owns Tatsu Dallas, which offers omakase, or a meal with dishes selected by the chef. In this setting, the chef will go into detail about the food being prepared. Before their dinner at Tatsu Dallas, Melissa Keomoungkhoun and her husband Victor Montiel contacted the restaurant to let them know they are deaf and had questions about how they might communicate with the staff. A tasting menu was sent over ahead of time, and Keomoungkhoun and Montiel were surprised when they walked into the restaurant and Sekiguchi and two others greeted them in ASL. The chef went on to sign the entire tasting menu, with the staff passing them notes explaining what was coming up next. "At Tatsu, we looked silly being in awe with smiles on our faces," Keomoungkhoun told Today. Sekiguchi said it is his belief that "every day and everyone is special. We all are celebrating something every day. If I can help make it more special, I am very grateful." Sorry if my posting didn't make sense, guys.

Please don't feel as if you need to rescue me though, I don't want to bring your mood down or make you feel bad. Okay?

For the foreseeable future I'll likely stay glued to this thread and only stray on occasion. Sort of taking this news hard and I've lost family to suicide. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jonathan_Brandis On November 11, 2003, Brandis was found hanged in the hallway of his Los Angeles apartment. He was transported to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center[10] and died the following day of injuries sustained from the hanging. He was 27 years old.[11] Brandis did not leave a suicide note.[12] After his death, friends reported that he had been depressed about his waning career and was reportedly disappointed when his appearance in the 2002 war drama Hart's War, a role he hoped would revive his career, was significantly reduced in the film's final cut. Brandis began drinking heavily and said that he intended to kill himself.[13]

I think you will. Hope you run into the right girl when you are ready.

Thank you so much @legacyfan I may take you up on that offer if that is alright. How do you stay to balanced? If ok to ask you such. Do you meditate?

My therapist is useless, while a nice person, nothing she says resonates with me.

Ok. so... I need to back to it again and I've lots bottled up inside and need to write and this is the thread for me to do so. Everyone here was so worked up (where I reside, not the forums) about politics and I insisted we turn off the news and things are calm now and I'm sitting here with my back turned to the TV and Bones is playing and I'm enjoying it. I'm drinking a sun burst melon lemonade. I don't fit in anywhere in this world or on the net and mental health forums are no longer my liking. I forgot my blog and never actually started it. I want to talk more about acquired brain injury and my mental health but I'm just stuck in this rut and cant see any way out and I don't see light at the end of the tunnel. Sleep has been everything but restorative. Ugh...

I prefer to be single.

How's everyone today?

Well this was not the ordinary as we joined together and I was trying to get him to return, but I read over at our old forum and he said he can't get back in here anymore so I will allow this thread and Dave to not feel pressured to return. Dave was a member here though and as you see I was the first to reply to him but I was unwell myself. Be well Dave and do what you do - do well and just dust yourself off and try, try again and never give up on life.

Hi @jaclaz

Thank you ... watching now and I feel so happy as I apologized to NHTPG and he accepted my apology from my bad posting yesterday. Will write a lot later and I LOVE this video.

Good night all and try to find something to enjoy, I was a bit sad I had to take down some Christmas decorations today ... I get attached to my dolls.

Good night.

This is so beautiful right now - Thank you for sharing.

I was always a loner like my dearly departed father was and I am unapproachable and stay to myself and stay quiet. I could never every trust another person to be alone with. I also avoid sodial media and at one time was one dating sites and not even looking for a hook-up so go figure that one as I hate sex?! I've been away from them for quite some time and I don't miss it, I just feel the best when alone in my room with my Peace Lilly. No more skype in my future. Yeah, those thoughts do creep in when too much free time and I think there is nothing wrong with taking it day-by-day. I'm glad your job keeps you busy and your presence here is cherished.

^Very sad

I tried @mina7601 we'll see.

Dave, I know you are not receiving notifications and I hope you don't see me as harassing you to come back, its only out of concern for you and I genuinely miss you. The videos you used to send me actually talking to me meant more than you'll even know and I still remember when you said I was (am) as real as the sun shining through your window. Please know I still am. Actually I remember when you told me to walk up to trees and feel the energy and being 100% Unstable in an 100% unstable society is normal. You've been with when during psychosis and when I was suicidal and you never judged me during these times and I was so happy to be there for you when you visited your mother and I'm SO SORRY I was not with you the last 2 years, but I was in no shape to be a friend to anybody. Some days are ok and most days are not if I'm being honest with you. Will write more later.

One thing that I've learnt over the last 50 years life has taught me -- you'd better learn to like yourself or good luck finding other to like you. I LOVE myself, there is NOTHING wrong with me and you are a cool dude @legacyfan Remember it is okay to be your own audience. DigiDave told me that and it stuck.

*Watching right now - thank you for sharing*

I'm an individual or perhaps maybe a character. One or the other ... hehe
