You just know

There is lots of talk about whether to get diagnosed.. am I, or, aren't I? ...personally, I feel if you quietly consider it long enough, rationally, then, you just know.

  • Yes, because I NEED to know. 

    And, thats half my problem - I just NEED to know things - and the internet is a shocking distraction for me.  I fight the urge to google every though that runs through my head, I get into looking at all sorts of things - mostly history related because I love things from the 1940s 1950s ..but then I'll suddenly diverge and be looking up Faith things, different denominations views, Bible translations ....or diet and nutrition stuff whether vegan, vegetarian or ..whatever is best!!!!  Days later, still flitting through the various threads in my head ebay packages with books will pop through the door ...and I'll add them to the growing pile of "stuff to read" on a variety of topics - books I just NEEDED so that I could read them and know more!

  • This is the problem with the internet. We have answers readily available thus removing any uncertainty.  There are some things however that you cannot Google an answer for. Uncertainty creates anxiety.  I think this is what causes a lot of modern day anxieties because we are used to getting an instant answer for some things but when we can't for others we get anxiety.

  • That is just so true !!! I've had period of trying to avoid using the internet ...because I have to stop myself researching again and again - it fuels my "need to know" about topics !!!  And my poor husband despairs when yet more second hand books pop through the door !

  • That is so very comforting !!!! That I'm not the only one !!!!
