}I was eighteen in this picture, smiling and looking my best while waiting for my date to pick me up for his prom dance. I had never seen the inside of a mental hospital, but I had been feeling a little different from my peers for about four years.
I was an award-winning student and athlete, but sometimes I had tremendous amounts of energy, and, on occasion, I could barely move. At that point, I had experienced more mania than depression. I knew that I smiled and laughed more than most of my friends, and sometimes I became extremely intense. People told me to, "Take a chill pill!" (a popular expression at the time).
The winter before this picture was taken, I slipped into a depression. I got up, got dressed, and went to school, but that was about it. I quit wearing the makeup I was used to wearing on a daily basis, didn't do much to my hair, and dressed in the first thing I pulled out of the closet. I was also really quiet. A couple of my teachers called my parents to ask if I was okay. They were worried that I was taking drugs, which I wasn't. One Friday night, a guy who was friends with my sister, coaxed me out of the house and took me to a party. He thought it would help, but I felt totally isolated and alone in the crowd that night.
My parents didn't know what to do, so they asked around and found a psychologist for me to talk to. He was a kindly older man with a beard. We talked for a long time, and he advised me to leave my small city and encouraged me to apply to Ivy League schools. That was flattering, but I can't say it helped. Eventually I got better though, and kept moving forward. I had slowed down, but I still hadn't broken down. That would happen a year and a half later.

Thanks for reading. I'm just being myself and I have a lot to write about.The Alzheimer’s Society Empowerment Group recently attended a very informative discussion on some of the ways in which any of us may become the victims of scamming and tips on how we may protect ourselves from being scammed.
We heard that between £5 and £10 billion is lost in the UK in scams each year, yet only 5% of incidents are ever reported!
Picking up the phone and no-one appears to be on the other end - Scammers use automated dialling to several phone numbers, and they wait until a number is picked up and this enables them to identify genuine numbers. The scammer may then ask you for information or to confirm information they say that they have about you. They may have obtained information from a ‘Victims’ List’ which contains a list of names and contact details which is sold to other scammers. One of these lists had over 500,000 names on it. Scammers often target people over a period of weeks in order to build a relationship with their victims. If you receive calls purporting to be from your bank, refuse to give any information, end the call and call your bank. Ensure you clear the line after receiving a suspect call by ringing a friend, relative or familiar number first. Better still, don’t answer calls if you don’t recognise the number and remember that your bank would never ask you for your bank PIN number or to transfer your money.
Courier Fraud - This is when a scammer will call you, pretending to be a bank official and say that your account is at risk. They say they will send a courier to your home to collect your bank card, jewellery/other valuables for safekeeping.
- Scammers often befriend their victims in online chatrooms (romance and dating fraud).
- In a scam involving Amazon Prime, the scammer tricks their victim into clicking an online link to update an order – which then gets redirected to an external site controlled by the scammer.
Cold Callers/Rogue Traders - Discourage uninvited callers/traders by obtaining a ‘We do not buy or sell at this door’ sticker from your local council or Thames Valley Police.

Erik. My condolences on your father's passing. There is a setting for keeping copies of sent items in PMs. Your PM probably did go through, but the default setting is to not keep copies. I found that out on my first PM here. It's nice that you are going to keep some of your Dad's razors to use. I would love to have a family heirloom razor.
It is always a sad moment for us all when we learn of a co-member, friend or other has passed. He will sadly be missed! My condolences to his family.Home » TV & Movies » Spoilers: Corrie to kill Ken Barlow in pneumonia storyline?

We’d like to hope that soap’s longest running character Ken Barlow (William Roache) is indestructable. But Coronation Street is set to worry the stalwart’s family – and the fans – when the character is hospitalised with pneumonia.
Ken recently headed to Scotland with Claudia Colby (Rula Lenska) in search of Daniel Osbourne (Rob Mallard), who has taken time away from the Street with Bertie in the wake of the tragic death of his wife Sinead.
The couple are forced to return home after the search bears no fruit but Peter (Chris Gascoyne) soon realises that Daniel is actually nowhere near Scotland. At the end of this week, he manages to track Daniel down and the pair have an honest heart to heart while out for a brisk hillside walk.
Daniel has made the decision not to come home for Sinead’s funeral but Peter makes it clear that he could regret this for the rest of his life. As Peter manages to convince Daniel to come home, Daniel will pay touching tribute to his soulmate and mother of his child in a eulogy.
He will later have a more private moment at her graveside as he breaks down in tears, clearly struggling with his grief. But he isn’t the only one who is struggling as Ken’s recent trip to Scotland has left him feeling ill.
As he takes a turn for the worse, he ends up being admitted to hospital with pneumonia and Peter realises that it could be serious. But as Peter warns Daniel that Ken isn’t in a good way, will Daniel be able to be there for his dad?
While we’re pretty positive that it will take more than this to kill off Ken – this is the guy who was walloped down a staircase with a book and was home before long – his health turn might prove to be a wake up call for his loved ones.
