Hang in there girls! I'm suffering right along with you all working on a sh*t ton of school work. Actually, I do this every weekend... lol

I wish we could all just ditch our priorities and meet up and have an endo girl party. That would be awesome.

Kristin, WTF is up with this stupid snow storm?!?!?!

Every semester about half way through I get this weird depression where I start to doubt why I'm doing all this schooling. I have no life, I never see my friends, I never see my family, I don't ever have any fun, I'm broke, I'm stressed out... and I still have another 6 years of schooling left.

It's like, why am I doing this to myself? I miss everyone and I miss having a life. I have my face in a book for AT LEAST 10 hours a day. I'm just tired and I miss the people in my life. I want to go home and put an end to all this misery.

I usually get over this feeling and realize why I'm doing this to myself but I always hit this wall about half way through the semester. I just miss everyone and I miss my life

Sending you hugs, Jenaya. Following your own passion or commitment is much lonelier than working for someone else's. I guess because the only person to rebel against when you want to stop or rest is yourself.

At least today is sunny and beautiful; I hope the studying is going well.

I'm trying to tell myself the same.
	Endometriosis: The Complete Reference for Taking Charge of Your Health by Mary Lou Ballweg & The Endometriosis Association is my go-to book for information & treatment options. ******************************** Taking Charge of Your Fertility by Toni Wexler is my go-to book for understanding the menstrual cycle, hormones, and fertility indicators.

Glad you're feeling better Paint

You guys are working really hard and it sucks on a weekend!! Hope it's going ok for you all.

JJ, I know what you mean about the depression thing - it's like a weird pit of the stomach thing where I question everything in my life. I always get it about now, I think because the clocks go back so in a few weeks it will be dark driving to work and dark by 5pm! What you're doing is awesome and I agree with what Rust said, it can be lonely, but you know deep down why you're doing it. Hang in there girly

Thanks girls. I'm so depressed today. I don't where this is all coming from. Maybe it's my 29th birthday coming up and I'm feeling like I'm going nowhere? Maybe it's stress? I don't know

I'm just lonely and tired and I just miss my life.

For what it's worth I think it's amazing that you are pursuing your passion. Hope tomorrow looks brighter for you. Big hugs.

I think I'm just experiencing a classic case of the "poor-me's." It'll go away. It usually does. I just have to stick it out or distract myself.

DANG Jenaya I swear you are inside my mind. I've been totally feeling that middle of the semester feeling that you described. Its one of the reasons I went so nuts of my costume. I needed the distraction of a project even though I'm already ridiculously busy with Midterm, exams, projects etc and I'm going freakin nuts because I took the extra nutrition so I can go for my BSN later.

It's horrible isn't it? It's so hard to stay motivated when half way through you're like, "Why am I doing this to myself!?!?"

The feeling usually goes away so I just have to stick it out. Usually something will come along that reminds me why I'm trying so hard. I hope your crappy feeling goes away too!

I was making my bed a little bit ago and started getting these sharp, stabbing pain in my stomach that brought me to my knee's. I'm laying down now with the heating bad. Ugh I'm supposed to hang out and go to the movies with my boyfriend today, but I feel like I've been hit by a bus.

Hope you're having a great night with the bf.
