		<description>This is one of those posts that made me want to pray for you.  Post partum depression is so hard.  I had it with two of my children but not severe.  I feel for you.</description>

		<description>SO glad that you&#039;re feeling better and your therapy is going well. I don&#039;t really remember exactly when I emerged from the haze of PPD, but all of a sudden, one day, I just realized, hey I&#039;m not crying. I feel good. Shock! 

I don&#039;t even know you, and I&#039;m proud of you!</description>

		<description>Jane-- it&#039;s lovely to see that you&#039;re feeling better. I&#039;ve been so distracted I haven&#039;t had the chance to keep up over here like I wanted to. Don&#039;t let the Masha&#039;s get you down girl. Check out Dooce- she&#039;s now posting up all her hate mail and running ads on the page so she can make money from the crazy *hit that people send her. You wouldn&#039;t believe the abuse that gets thrown there- because people can post anonymously. (I can never spell that word!) 

Anyway-- 4 kids? Good for you and more power to you! I think big families are fabulous. I have 4 sibs and even though we had our share of dysfunction, I really appreciate them now that I&#039;m an adult. It&#039;s so much work raising them though. My two are late teens and I can see the light at the end of the tunnel....it&#039;s a long tunnel but lovely stuff along the way (as you can see already!) 

Big hugs from me. I&#039;m just so happy to see you doing better:-)

		<description>jane, please don&#039;t let people like masha get you in a &quot;tizzy&quot;.  i know it&#039;s easier said then done, and really you were too kind to her.  i love reading this blog every night until i get tired - and it makes me sad that someone like masha might make you upset enough to where you and tarzan won&#039;t blog anymore.  and believe me, i would totally understand if you guys did - people like that take the fun right out of simple things like a pregnancy/parenting blog.  none the less, i wouldn&#039;t be happy to see my favorite blog deleted due to the insensativities of a bitter, internet bully.  half of what she said didn&#039;t even make a word of sense lol, and i love your responses - they weren&#039;t childish in any way and were very to the point.  any who, i&#039;m finally up to date with reading this blog! it&#039;s taken me a while, as i had to start from the beginning :) but thank you for keeping me entertained every night and get through my pregnant insomnia!  keep posting jane and tarzan, you guys are great.</description>

		<description>Arrrrrrrgh... I haven&#039;t posted a blog here for quite awhile.  *Hey everyone!*  But I just had to take a minute and comment on this post.

Why is it that some people have to attack others in order to make themselves feel superior, do whatever it takes to evoke that &#039;I told you so&#039; feeling, and feel it&#039;s OK to do so on the Internet?

I know why.

There have been studies about these types of people who post on blogs and forums who are negative in all of their comments, posts, etc. 

Several years ago, I happened to work at a company who was hired to research this.

Come to find out, the majority of these people live normal lives on the outside with their work, their friends, family, etc.  But on the inside, their not quite normal for the fact that there is something deep inside of them that needs to be satisfied.  It could be severe &#039;middle child syndrome&#039; where the &#039;want to be seen and heard&#039; urge continues after childhood well into adulthood and the Internet is a place where these types of people to satisfy that.  They actually get pleasure from starting things on blogs and forums - and almost all of the time do so anonymously, or using some sort of a personality they developed online in order to satisfy their urge.

And if they weren&#039;t a middle child, there could be countless reasons why people do this crazy pointless thing that only serves one purpose: to make them feel better about themselves.  There are usually some deep rooted issues that the person has decided not to deal with for whatever reason.  Issues that could easily be taken care of through therapy, but they swear that they are find and nothing is wrong with them... they often tell themselves.

It must be a lonely world these people live in.  You can&#039;t help but feel bad for them.  In a way, this is their way for reaching out for help.  Hopelessly wanting interaction with other people - and sadly only being able to satisfy that longing through the cold faceless world of the Internet.

It&#039;s a vicious circle they live in often times.  They&#039;ll do anything they can to start fights with people on blogs or forums, and when they are successful on one, they&#039;ll post many times - even right after another.  (As you can see above)  In some ways, once they get a little spat going, it&#039;s like a drug, they feed off of the interaction and become somewhat obsessive about it - often refreshing the page over and over and over again for hours on end - waiting for a reply to their comment - hoping to keep the fight/spat going.

And when it ends, what do they do?  They move onto another site and start the whole process over again.

And you know what the crazy thing about all of this is?

They don&#039;t even realize they&#039;re doing it most of the time.

It feels normal to them.  They don&#039;t see anything wrong with it.  They have no idea that everyone else views them as problem-starters and pointless commenters/posters on blogs and forums.

MARK MY WORDS.  WATCH....

And finally, like they all do, once this is brought up in the open, they&#039;ll go NUTS.  They&#039;ll start saying all sorts of things, post like crazy, and go into super-attack-mode and post all sorts of horrible things.

Why do they go nuts?

Well for one, they are called out and now everyone knows the type of person they are.  And two, they feel the need to stick up for themselves - now they feel like they are being attacked, when in reality, we&#039;re just bringing their problem to light - in hopes that they someday get help... which I hope the person above does.</description>

		<description>Jane, I can definitely identify with what you&#039;re saying about your family--I feel as though I could have written this blog post! Christmas was never cancelled with my family, but it definitely has become less and less merry over the years. Last year on Christmas Eve my father got into an argument with my sister and repeatedly smashed her cell phone until it was in pieces.  
I spent a lot of my childhood just rushing through dinner, waiting for it to be over, and honestly family dinners are still tense. My husband and I had to live with my parents while I was pregnant to save money and it was awful. We all ate together occasionally and things were always so tense and uncomfortable. I&#039;m so glad that we have our own place now and our own family.
I couldn&#039;t agree more with you on how important that is! I&#039;m so happy that the Hubbs and I, and our sweet, sweet son will be creating our own life and our own memories together. We can give him what we never had, which is so gratifying. This year we&#039;ve decided that we are spending Christmas day alone, just the three of us. We are sick, sick, sick of family members ruining this holiday for us, and we are not going to let our first Christmas with our baby boy be fraught with tension and pain. This year would have been especially difficult because my parents have FINALLY separated (which is awesome, like yours they were constantly fighting and made each other miserable), so I&#039;m glad that we&#039;ve made this decision. We will see one side on Christmas Eve, and another on boxing day, but Christmas day will be just us three. I think it&#039;ll be really cozy and I&#039;m so looking forward to it.
As I&#039;m sure you&#039;ve gathered from everything above, my parents do NOT get along either. I also had to try to defend my mother from my father, and it usually ended in a screaming match or even him becoming physically violent with me. He of course believes that he isn&#039;t to blame because its everyone else&#039;s fault for making him angry. He and mother went to a therapy session just yesterday and had a huge fight in front of their psychologist because he was trying to blame me and my sister for the problems in their marriage. Go figure.
I have been on anti-depressants for five years, and have been struggling with serious depression since Jr. high and I firmly believe that my home environment growing up has had a lot to do with that. I&#039;ve never left a comment on your blog before because I didn&#039;t realize how much we had in common until today. I&#039;m sure you hear similar stories to yours all the time, but I really enjoy reading about the experiences of someone who has been through much of the same things in life. Keep writing!</description>

		<description>Masha -

Oh where do I even start??  

About my parents - I actually joke about canceling Christmas w/ my mom.  I can laugh about it now, but it doesn&#039;t mean that I thought it was ridiculous &amp; still do.  I also tell my mom everything in regards to my dad.  She could read that blog post &amp; she wouldn&#039;t be surprised.  My whole being &quot;real&quot; thing right now is not for my blog... It&#039;s for me &amp; I&#039;m very real with my mom.

It&#039;s people like you who are the worst people to talk to bc of what you just said.  My eating disorder was a direct result of comments like that from my dad.  I had an awful relationship w/ food since my dad was controlling &amp; since our meal times were not pleasant.  If you are going to tell me any different, then please just STFU.  You are wrong &amp; quite nervy to tell me otherwise.

Next, about my blog...  I just love when people put words in my mouth, I really do. (That is sarcasm in case you didn&#039;t know.)  I have never once said that I wanted to be published.  Thanks for the thought though.

I don&#039;t care about influencing others either.  There are plenty of people that didn&#039;t agree with my decision to stop breastfeeding, so I obviously didn&#039;t do my &quot;job&quot; there influencing them w/ my decision.  Darn.

As far as the ads (not adds) on my blog, people contacted me for that.  Don&#039;t you realize how advertising &amp; marketing works?  And I only wish that I was getting paid the big bucks for advertising... Perhaps I should publish a book AND charge an arm &amp; a leg for the ads.  Hmmm, there&#039;s an idea....

You will never see a Lexapro ad on here either.  Give me a break.  The point of my blog is to write MY thoughts.  It&#039;s not about promoting an anti-depressant.   

I choose to be very selective of what pictures are posted here, hence the whole reason we are anonymous.  I&#039;m the same way with Facebook &amp; my real life friends on there.  I&#039;m not a picture whore on there either bc the interweb can be a scary place.  My priority as a mom is to protect my son &amp; by not posting pics, I believe I&#039;m doing the best I can do.  (Not judging those of you that actually post pictures... it&#039;s my own deal that makes me weary of it.)

And lastly, ask me if I give two sh!ts that you think I&#039;m not sincere &amp; real... &amp; that&#039;s me being very real.</description>

(Not judging those of you that actually post pictures&#8230; it&#8217;s my own deal that makes me weary of it.)</p>
<p>And lastly, ask me if I give two sh!ts that you think I&#8217;m not sincere &#038; real&#8230; &#038; that&#8217;s me being very real.</p>

		<description>lol - good lesson to learn. If you are going to read someone else&#039;s stuff then at least respect if and if you want to judge it then do it to yourself, in your head. 

We most certainly do put ourselves out there with the intention of inspiring people and helping them as they face their own parenting journey.

 If you don&#039;t like it move on and if you don&#039;t like someone standing up to you and questioning your style then move on too.

BTW have approved your comment seeing as though you are now lying about the way you wrote. If anyone wants to read it, head on over here: http://www.innerparent.com/?p=769 and scroll down to comments.

Enough said!

@Jane - excellent response, my thoughts exactly :) I&#039;ve just learnt a lesson from you in  how to respond when someone throws shoes at you.</description>

		<description>@ Lori,
Lori, you are nice. You understood exactly where I am coming from. I am lucky (Thank G-d) to have parents who are there for me. I have friends who do not have that...I understand how that can be depressing when you see that your parents are not interested in your baby. The thing is when you have PPD, whatever your parents are doing, it can upset you no matter what. I was trying to say that you have a lot of emotional built-up feelings, and then because you know your parents for so long, you start remembering all the things that happened between you in the past, and this can combine with your baby blues and lead to you being upset at your parents for no reason...
oh, well...Jane does not have to share with us.  Sure she is doing this for us, but she is also doing this for herself. 1) She wants to be published as any writer 2) wants her thoughts heard and wants to influence others 3) make money...look she&#039;s got some adds on her blog. Do you think we will see Lexapro or other pharmaceutical comps&#039; adds on here soon?  
On the other had, you, Lori, you have a wordpress, and you don&#039;t have any adds. You put up pics of your baby. This means you just want to have a journal about your baby, it&#039;s sweet of you, and you probably have a desire to be a writer, so you do not mind sharing your thoughts with the world...In any case, I have not read much of your blog, probably I won&#039;t cause it&#039;s too personal...but I bet your baby will love it when he grows up. I believe you are more sincere and more real than &quot;Jane&quot; though :-)</description>

		<description>Jane, thank you for answering my questions. Well, I posted a comment on Marilyn&#039;s web site for everyone to see. She has an option to &quot;moderate&quot; comments, so she did not publish it. If she wants, i have no problem with her publishing it because it was not bitchy. Well, you have a blog. I thought it is made, so that people can &quot;judge&quot;, especially considering you are not even named  Jane, you are not really &quot;real&quot; you. 

 In any case, I am disagreeing with you about how you are writing about your parents; I think it is not nice, and if they ever read this, it would hurt them immensely...I think everyone makes mistakes. Why don&#039;t you show them what you wrote...I mean you are basically bitching about your parents and judging them harshly. By the way, you dad was just probably kidding, I like rhyming things too...and snacks like that are not exactly healthy...eating disorders do not develop due to dad&#039;s jokes, it&#039;s also chemical imbalance, poor diet in general, adolescent issues of self esteem..
But I have to tell you
1) I don&#039;t judge you for taking medicine or doing anything. I am just being curious. 
2) I am disagreeing with you on certain issues, but I thought you&#039;d like that to &quot;spice&quot; up your blog discussions...like the fact that there is that known book &quot;My boys can swim&quot; http://www.amazon.com/My-Boys-Can-Swim-Pregnancy/dp/0761521674..i thought that was a spicy comment from me...
3) I read that PPD can lead to suicide, so I certainly support you in getting help.  I think in fact, you are brave, not many people want to go to a psychiatrist and take any drugs that would interfere with your personality
4) I can&#039;t really feel love or care for you or your family because you are not my friends, you are just characters from a blog, but you seem like nice people based on your posts...I keep being drawn to your blog, it&#039;s like reading a book...you want to know what happens...:)
In any case, you should check out Marilyn&#039;s blog...she&#039;s quite snobby, but I have to admit she&#039;s education too. I really liked her pics of her boy wiht his curls, and the moments that she wants to remember about him...she has some nice stuff there...:-)  

Whatever, people though..if you don&#039;t like me &quot;untweet&quot; me. I don&#039;t mind.And I guess I have to delete you from my google reader :( This is just bully journalism, I tell ya...I guess don&#039;t mess with Texas and Marilyn Monroe (that&#039;s my lesson from all of this :)</description>
