I Am Still Here and I Am Alright

November 7, 2009 in Blogging, Health, Therapy


I am fine and I am merely taking a break from the “online me,” and paying some much needed attention to the “real life me.”  I realized that at least one reason I needed to do this, was because I was spending all day and all night tethered to baby MacBook. It was becoming extremely unhealthy.

I did not make a Post about it, because I didn’t quite fully decide that I was taking a break until I had already done it (or was doing it), if that makes any sense.  Therefore, to come back and write about it, would have drawn me back into what I was trying not to do.  I also had no idea how long this break would last, once I just sort of found myself in the middle of it.  So, I chose to just, “roll with it,” if you will.

No one has contacted me since the last Post I have written, however, I have now found out that someone mentioned they are concerned about me on Twitter.  That said, I am now writing this.  I do not want to cause any alarm or for anyone to get worried!

What I have done here in not telling anyone, done a complete vanishing act, has always been of great discussion among the Psych Blogging Arena.  It can do precisely the above, and other things as well, that upset people and throw them off kilter.  That was not my intent.  I may have now come off as being rather selfish, inconsiderate and other things, in breaking this somewhat, “Cardinal Rule” of Psych Blogging.

So, I apologize for that, and again, I am fine.  I am just taking a break and will be back when I feel the time is right.  I’m not sure when that will be, but I am not going anywhere.  All of you can be sure of that.

    Hey Wee One,
    I know you might not see this for a while, but I think you should make a post once a week or so to let us know what’s going on.

    Personally, I had thought you had gone into the neuro ward for monitoring, as you had mentioned that you were waiting on the hospital to call. I wasn’t worried.

    Hi Asdquefty. Still online, got your comment so, yep. Here I am.

    I can’t guarantee or say that I’ll make a Post once a week as I’m on a Blogging Break! That’s kind of the point, right? I also said up above there, I don’t know how long this is going to last.

    I may come back tomorrow, I may be gone longer than a week or more–as per your suggested “update schedule.”

    No, nothing heard regarding the VEEG hospital stay, yet. I would probably make a Post about that though. It would probably be a fair time away.

    Although, I don’t know if they will have Internet access there. I’m hoping so, as then I can blog from my hospital bed about it all! If not, it will be Word all the way, and then Posts when I get home!

    Hi Mea nada madison. *laughing* Still no replacement computer, huh? Ah, it’s not sad! Not to worry.

    Good to hear I’m not the “only one” taking care of their “real selves.” No, I’m being facetious. I’m glad to hear that you are as well. It’s actually a really important thing to do and I don’t think a lot of us do it–hell, hardly any of us do it?

    This is tough for me. It’s the first blogging break that I have ever taken in the history of this blog!

    I also never put myself first–even if it’s before “my online me?” *rolls eyes*

    It’s something I need to do though. Desperately, right now.

    Thanks sweetie,
    xo
