;) good to see your above post

I know you said you weren't after sympathy, but thats kind of the only explanation I can think of, so my advice is to just be yourself and explain your problem and people will give you help and understand you, making things up won't help your cause much :)
oh and also, see a real GP because that sleep deprivation problem does actually sound pretty serious :O

good luck :)

...post count? LOL!

Really guys, I'm curious as well but we should probably jst let this 1 drop...


And Jessie, u is a v.v.v.v.v. smart girl, u is XD XD
I wish I could steal ur brain...

/Must try faking something and testing jessie's medical knowledge sometime XD

/Is really going 2 bed this time...

lol jess. zomg 2 Jesses, the world is getting smaller each day :oo

I don't think Jess needs to undertake the MBBS degree, she already knows it all LOL :D

But anyways, I think alana's insecure, I also do it sometimes. You just try to hide it because it's truly embarassing. But Happy, you really need to seek professional advice as it's becoming pretty serious. If you don't sleep you can develop deficits in thinking and other stuph.

Maybe happy just lied to make it seem like she was actively getting help and not just leaving it up to an online community.
Which is pretty valid since the advice would've (probably) repetitively been "go see your doctor about it" if she had been downright honest. She just wanted some advice, and probably thought it wasn't going to come if she didn't play the doctor situation.

I don't know, thats just how I would view it with a pint of empathy. Only she knows.

Therefore ignore this post the above is total bull. Sorry happy if I interpreted your actions incorrectly.

In cases like this, professional advice is always the way to go. Talking about issues to someone who you respect and understand you is important.  :)

However, in hindsight the reference to the Indian doctor who spoke little English seems unnecessary and uncalled for.
I am really opposed to the circulation of stereotypes such as this.

Lol, nah, Prav is right.

This 'insomnia' (I think that's what it is?) is causing me to make mistakes over everything... I literally had no sleep last night as there is probably too much stress on my mind, and emotional issues which I'd rather not discuss.

But yeah, all is forgiven, and if  we could move on that would be super. :)

EDIT: I feel bad for putting Jessie through this... :'(; she is simply too smart! :D

EDIT 2: As for why, I guess sleep deprivation does strange, strange things to you. :(

You mean *if* all is forgiven.

You've deceived all of us in order to deal with your own insecurities. Regrettably, for some of us, it may take some time (if ever) to forgive you for it.

It's ok.

However, I still don't really understand why you persisted with the lies in all the PMs you sent me (and invented new lies to cover up the other lies), and only admitted to lying after I called you out about it (three times!)

That really hits a nerve, especially when it's about something so serious.
