You're NEVER alone, my friend.:hi::hug:

[helderheid]

5. thanks. I don't know if I'll feel better, Tonight feels really cold with

the exception of you.

[Erika]

6. Sometimes being alone is all OK

Grab a blanket and be comfy.

[helderheid]

12. thanks. I'm trying to come up with the right words and nothing comes out

right. I'm really glad you're here. Really glad.

[Brundle_Fly]

39. here is why you are not alone.

There is 190 million americans, that share your values, even if at times they are hard to see.

Don't forget about the extra 30 million Canadians like me, who share the democratic Liberal values, just like you!

and I and everyone in this thread loves you, needs your support as well as you need ours.

GodSpeed Helder!

8. I saw your other post . . .

Fix yourself some hot tea and curl up with a good book tonight. Things will feel better tomorrow.

9. I think we are all scare of not knowing what will happen if Alito gets

in SC. I feel like this lately too.

[Cooley Hurd]

13. Are you feeling depressed? I've been there, many times...

It finally broke me, but I got help. It's a very tough thing to initiate on your own. Do you have someone close to you that you can talk to? Perhaps they can help you find the help you need?:hug:

[sasha031]

7. when you are at DU

you are home :grouphug:

36. close to 1000,eh?

Wasn't Gore great? Gave me a glimmer of hope.

We are 82,000 friends, at your beck and call, day or night. Call on us, anytime, my friend.:grouphug:

THANK YOU

all of you!

[Cooley Hurd]

19. Let him know how you feel...

I'm sure he loves you and doesn't want you to hurt. :)

[Maraya1969]

45. You have a husband? Well that explains it!

:rofl: J/K..... but not necessarily.

It is true that you are not alone here. I've felt like a blue goldfish living where I do sometimes but I always find my blue friends here. If you feel seriously sad for a while maybe you should get some help. Prozac is a miracle for me.


:grouphug:

[babylonsister]

14. WHY? There's lots of support on DU! nt

[emlev]

16. Remember, there are far more of us than we know...

it's part of the strategy of the right to isolate us, keep the media from reporting how many of us there are, keep us feeling alone.

These are scary, scary times, to be sure. We're all in it together.

[FreedomAngel82]

17. I'm sorry

:hug: You're not though in internet land here at DU. I'm sorry I can't stay up but I'm heading to bed since I have to wake up early for class tomorrow. :hug:

[Olney Blue]

18. We're here- you aren't alone.

:grouphug:

[helderheid]

20. I love you all and thank you. - I don't feel alone like I did. Thank you

so much. You got me through tonight. All of you.

[Cooley Hurd]

21. That's what he're here for - think of us as your cyber-wacky-neighbors...

:silly::hi:

[LittleClarkie]

22. Not alone

[tmooses]

23. I send all my love to you tonight. We are all on this rollercoaster

together. Out of the darkness here in Oregon to you- a thought:

“He who learns must suffer. And even in our sleep pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, and in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom to us by the awful grace of God.”

29. goodnight

Now it's time to say good night
Good night Sleep tight
Now the sun turns out his light
Good night Sleep tight
Dream sweet dreams for me
Dream sweet dreams for you.

Close your eyes and I'll close mine
Good night Sleep tight
Now the moon begins to shine
Good night Sleep tight
Dream sweet dreams for me
Dream sweet dreams for you.

Close your eyes and I'll close mine
Good night Sleep tight
Now the sun turns out his light
Good night Sleep tight
Dream sweet dreams for me
Dream sweet dreams for you.

Good night Good night Everybody
Everybody everywhere
Good night.

you are very cared about, helderheid


peace

[cry baby]

30. goodnight helderheid. I'm thinking of you and hoping things will

be better tomorrow.

If all of us are thinking about you, you can't be alone cause we are there with you.:loveya:

[txindy]

32. Good night. We'll see you in the morning!

:hi: The rest of this week (and beyond) should be Must See TV with the Dems hitting on all fronts. :toast: You'll want to be well-rested to witness this. :hi:

[Peter Frank]

34. Good Morning (Well, 1:45 AM)...

Often when we feel lonely, it has to do with feeling like we're not in control of our circumstances. It took some courage for you to share your lonely experience; and the good thoughts you're receiving are the result of a choice that you made ;) :hug:

[Maraya1969]

46. Ohhh my doctor said that. He said that if we feel hopeless about our

situation we get depressed. So to fix it we should find something that we ARE in control of or remind ourselves that our situation is not hopeless. (I might not be explaining it correctly). I remembered it once when I was feeling low and it really worked.

Victor Frankel was kept in a concentration camp during the Holocaust and he said that he realized the one thing they could not take away from him was his thoughts.

27. Hey! I'm here ! You aren't alone!

Just think how alone you would feel if you were a Dem member of Congress! LOL! Now they feel aloooone! Chin up.You have a family here to support you.Curl up with something escapist tonight and forget all the crap outside. It will still be around for us to sweep it away tomorrow!:pals:

[PatrioticLeftie]

28. You're not alone

You've got who knows how many people watching every move you make. Don't know if that's supposed to be comforting...

[txindy]

31. Alone? Nah, you're never alone. Not here.

:hug: We're always available to chat, cheer, rant, or tease. We're a one-stop fete of emotions!

[sakabatou]

33. Welcome to my world

But I take comfort in my lonliness, nowing that I can complain about anything and no-one will bitch about it. ;)

[Peter Frank]

38. I take exception to that!...

[Maraya1969]

48. LOL I love DU !...

:hi:

[EFerrari]

35. Did Special Agent Mike go for a burger?

Don't worry, my friend, he'll be right back. Meanwhile, you have us.

:hug:

[applegrove]

37. Thing to do is not catastrofize. What if Alito undoes Roe vs. Wade?

Then the states make laws. So all is not lost. And I don't think this is one the GOP really wants. More likely they will hold off and keep the issue for the 2006 election.

So many things could happen.

This law is about right to privacy. And is not the only way for woman to have reproductive control over their lives. There are other ways. We just need to organize.

[Ellipsis]

40. Good morning!

Thank you for your energy in the election reform forum these last many months.

Good Karma to you.

42. A little something to make you smile

My first ever post with "cute" graphics, but I thought they might lift your spirits.

The majority of Americans are with you. Vast numbers are waking up after twenty years asleep. We're taking back our country.

[Caoimhe]

43. I felt very alone last night

when I was watching a replay of the Al Gore speech on CSPAN, very excitedly.. with my husband just home from work and watching beside me, and I got up to get a glass of water and he changed the channel to NBA basketball. Ok.. I know Gore isn't everyone's cup of tea but damn that speech was so inspiring. I hadn't been able to catch it during the day. When I asked him to please turn it back he said "I'm tired of politics". I felt alone. So I grabbed the other remote, turned it back and said TOUGH SHIT, go in the other room!

hehe. No I wasn't that bitchy but I did climb his butt a little, and he did go to the other room. There are times when even the ones we love and spend our life with get tired of politics. That is when I turn to DU. I love this community, and I love all of you who give a damn about our country and our future!

Never feel alone!

[Rhiannon12866]

59. Here's the DU thread with the link to Gore's speech.

I thought you might want to have it. I agree, it was inspiring! And thanks for your inspiring words. I think that Gore's message rubbed off on you!:D

And I'll say to you what I said on my earlier post. None of us are ever alone, as long as we have DU.:grouphug:

[IndyOp]

44. I will be honest - I laughed when I read the OP -

I swear I am not an insensitive asswipe - but the juxtaposition of the title of your post, "I feel alone" and the graphic in your sig line "Wiretap" -> :-)

Think of it this way: With pResident Bush in the WH and the NSA wiretapping, we are never alone!

Hi Agent Mike --> :hi:

[laylah]

47. I feel that way

at times also...then I come "home" to DU and realize it is just the opposite. Hang in there, helderheid :hug:

[Marleyb]

49. Hope you are feeling better this morning helderheid

you know as much as people complain that the internet is impersonal...and that there is so much political infighting on this board...

:hug: DU is full of love :grouphug:
what a beautiful thing!

[H2O Man]

50. On feeling alone .....

I'm glad that if you were having a rough time, you made a good choice and communicated with people. It is important to have a support system, so to speak, and in today's world, an internet community can actually play as important a role for many people as extended family or neighborhood. So you took a good step, in doing what worked for you.

From the OP and thread, I am unsure of what was going on. "Alone" can mean many different things to people. Included are "afraid," "sad," "hurt," and "lonely." (Some people, myself included, enjoy solitude, and so "alone" has a very different meaning.) Again, it is important to do the things you need to do to take care of yourself .... and the first step - always - is knowing that you are worth it.

Your friend,
Water Man

[donheld]

51. helderheid, what is making you feel alone?

We are with you :hug:

[helderheid]

52. I feel silly. And Lucky.

Too bad it's too late to change the topic. I just wanted to thank everyone here for the cyber-support. I really needed it. Still do. I am better this morning. I appreciate each and every response, even the one about how funny it was to see the topic and then the Wiretap sig line. I obviously hadn't thought about that! :spray: :rofl: Oh and the "cute" graphics put a grin on my face.

So, to all my DU buddies who were/are there for me in my lonely scared little place, a big

53. You've got a lot of good karma stored up here, helderheid.

Besides, you're good enough, you're smart enough, and doggone it, people like you.

:)

Seriously, all the work you've done in 4ERD and beyond has earned you the friendship and gratitude of many people here. I'm very glad you can come here and confide with us and cash in on some of that.


:hug:

[helderheid]

54. DAMNIT there go the tears again!! Thanks bleever!
