Here Without You (3 Doors Down)

A hundred days have made me older
Since the last time that I saw your pretty face
A thousand lies have made me colder
And I don't think I can look at this the same
But all the miles that separate
Disappear now when I'm dreaming of your face

I'm here without you baby
But you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby
And I dream about you all the time

I'm here without you baby
But you're still with me in my dreams
And tonight it's only you and me, yeah

The miles just keep rollin'
As the people leave their way to say hello
I've heard this life is overrated
But I hope that it gets better as we go, oh yeah yeah

I'm here without you baby
But you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby
And I dream about you all the time

I'm here without you baby
But you're still with me in my dreams
And tonight girl it's only you and me

Everything I know and anywhere I go
It gets hard but it won't take away my love
And when the last one falls, when it's all said and done
It gets hard but it won't take away my love, whoa

I'm here without you baby
But you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby
And I dream about you all the time

I'm here without you baby
But you're still with me in my dreams
And tonight girl it's only you and me, yeah oh yeah oh

Orchestration

D D
If you, if you could return
A6/A
don't let it burn
A6/A
don't let it fade
C
I'm sure I'm not bein' rude

but it's just your attitude
G
it's tearing me apart

it's ruining everyday
D A6/A
I swore, I swore I would be true
A6/A
but honey so did you
C
so why were you holding her hand

is that the way we stand
G
were you lying all the time

was it just a game to you

Chorus

[chord progression: D A6/A G Bm (same as verse)]

D
But I'm in so deep
A6 A
you know I'm such a fool for you

you got me wrapped around your finger

Verse
-----
Guitar I - single chord strums with tremelo/echo effect

Oh, I thought the world of you
I thought that nothing could go wrong
but I was wrong
I was wrong

If you, if you could get by
trying not to lie
things wouldn't be so confused
and I wouldn't feel so used
but you always knew it's true
I just wanna be with you

Chorus
------
and I'm in so deep
you know I'm such a fool for you
you got me wrapped around your finger
do you have to let it linger
do you have to
do you have to
do you have to let it linger

Horoscope for Thursday, September 08, 2005
Christy,You could receive intense flashes of illuminating wisdom now, but you cannot explain how you know what you know. Don't even try. It's like you can listen between the words when others speak and you hear things they didn't say. There's a problem, however, for even if you are accurate most of the time, you don't want to assume that you are right. Check out your assumptions before you put them into action.

Postpartum depression with psychosis

2005-06-29T15:45:00.000+08:00

Nakatanggap ako ng balita from my sister sa Iloilo na may sakit daw ang isa kong kapatid na babae na kakapanganak lang 3 months ago. So, akala ko simpleng sakit ng ulo at lagnat lang. Sinasabi daw ng kapatid namin na may kumakausap sa kanya na anino ng isang lalaki at niyaya siya na sumama somewhere (kung saan man siya niyaya, di ko na natanong pa). Meron din daw moments na wala siya sa sarili niya at pag kinakausap ay iba-iba ang sinasabi niya. Kapag gabi ay inaapoy siya ng lagnat at tuwing madaling araw ay nagigising dahil sa mga masasamang panaginip niya. Walang ganang kumain, tulala at palaging masungit. Nag-attempt din siyang magpakamatay sa paraan ng pagtali ng plastic sa leeg niya, mabuti na lang at naabutan siya ng asawa niya. Ng tinanong kung bakit niya ginawa yun, di daw niya alam na ginawa niya yun at wala siyang naalala na ginawa niya yun.

Nagkataon pa naman na pinabakasyon ko dito ang mga magulang namin, kaya siguro na-depress ng husto. Ang asawa niya ay gabi niya lang nakakasama dahil maghapon ding nasa trabaho. Kaagad ko siyang tinawagan at kinausap sakaling makatulong ang kaunting oras na kumustahan at pagpaalala sa kanya na lakasan niya ang loob niya at huwag padaig sa depression na nararamdaman niya.

Sa kasalukuyan, under observation siya after na pinatingnan ng mother-in-law niya sa manghihilot o magtatawas. Nagdesisyon sila na huwag dalhin sa hospital kasi baka daw hindi tanggapin ang mga ganyang cases dun.

Noong mag-surf ako sa internet about postpartum depression/psychosis ang isang posibleng dahilan daw ay ang changing hormones at stress ng childbirth. Rare at severe disorder daw ang postpartum psychosis kesa sa postpartum depression dahil 1-2 out of 500-1000 new mothers within 3 months of birth ang naapektuhan nito. Di ko alam kung paano nagco-cope ang mga kababaihan na nakakaranas nito. Pero ayon dun sa isang internet site na nabasa ko ang common type ng treatment para sa postpartum depression ay talk therapy at antidepressant medicine daw.

Nakakalungkot at nakakatakot isipin na nararanasan ito ng mga kababaihan. Ang banta sa kalusugan ng isang ina ay hindi natatapos pagkapanganak niya.
