"What do you do?

If you got ailments, do you tell people? I know an older woman that believe you don't. She thinks, you would never get over your ailments if you admit you have them. I have owned up about my ailments, like some, I wore it on my<b> sleeve. </font></b>I believe you got to be honest. I mentioned, about a stint I had with the depression. I was on a date and told the woman on the date, that at times I get depress. The woman couldn't get away from me fast enough, she has a shocked looked on her face. I know I'm not a mad man or crazy. But in a way, I could see her point. Check this out! You had a first date, you meet the lady at a restaurant, you tell her, that you had to catch the bus here because your car had been impounded, you also tell her you were in jail for 90 day, and then you say. By the way, I'm an alcoholic, that date won't go too right. There are some people that can read other people, maybe by their gestures or just looking in their eyes. Some people are easily read. So, do you go on with life as if you normal, if you know you not? I was in a funk, at this time in my life, and every one around me had no idea, that I was in a funk. I could have gotten an academy award for my acting. So do you tell people your ailments? Doe's anyone cares? Even now if you go to a psychologist, they don't want you to say you depress, they say "don't own that word". They say you admitting that you have an illness, it didn't make sense to me. At one time I talked to a psychologist and he say, "if you keep talking bad about yourself, or if you don't improve soon, I won't see you again"! That's a kick in the nuts, but fortunate, I have adjust and maintaining on my own, no help from doctors or drugs. But the ones who have ailments, whether depression, drunks, alcohol, addictions or whatever. You get to a point that the doctors and the world gave up on you and you having a hard time doing it alone. For those who reaching out out for help, "what do you do?

If it is a just meet and no further I would say I would not tell them at all. I think this kind of stuff is personal and should only be discuss with friends or future relationships. If you reach a point where there is no one left to help you start blogging. I am sure you can find a great support group on here. Other support groups that can help in your local area. For me nothing I have no illness. I try to stay fit and injured free so far.. I am always here to help others out.. Just way it is with me.. hugsssssssssss V

Did I tell you I love your profile pic.. I want mine back.. Seems FriendFinder-x is taking their time to restore them all.

hugs V

I think you tell them if you are going to have a further relationship with them. Sometimes at a meet and greet it's not necessary unless a conversation comes up that will result in triggers for a certain "ailment". Use discretion
