Apparently depression bars you from adopting from most places. I get it, I guess, it just hits me right in the heart. We'll see, maybe I'll be able to stop my medication and go from there.

Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that... I pray that you can one day adopt, there are way too many kids out there that need somebody like you that wants them, and to show them love!
The difference between the right word and the almost right word is the difference between lightning and a lightning bug.
Is it just me, or does this seem to be a vicious cycle?
Not sure if you'd want to be a teacher... because there will be a few sad cases... and a few success-stories... They're always hard to tell apart at first... The rationalist POV is one can never fail by trying to achieve what you once thought impossable, and manage to learn something.
Can there be a medical-waiver for that issue? Or are there some quacks claiming that you might collapse under the stress of raising a child?

That's...horrible...I am sorry.
"Who we are I'll never know
But when we spoke I knew you well
You knew me well
You loved me through and through
I never thought I would watch you leave us
From a room as a kid I held so close
I was a son made up on sand
You were the wind that let me go
I'll say goodbye
So this is goodbye
But I'm afraid to speak
So with words I'll tell the story
You meant so much to me
And like the night upon nights to come
I will dream of you
And know that I will see you seen
Give me the strength to carry on!
Tide!
You are the ocean tide!
The swells swept you away
I was a son made of sand
You were the wind that let me go
When the ocean tide has risen to high
And the waters have come to carry you away
Remember I will always be there to sing you to sleep....."
Having a child in ones life is wonderful. Don't give up.

Being a teacher would be wonderful, I feel. It's something I have thought of.
In terms of the waiver, I'm not sure yet. I plan to get I'm touch with a few agencies and see if they allow some sort of documentation that states I'm not high risk or disturbed.
It really is a cycle, and it makes me angry to see people who aren't good parents who have children, but I can't because of something so small.
That's for the quote, certainly helps me keep my head up.

Thanks everyone for the encouragement, it's nice to have a little support.

I'm so sorry to hear about this. I hope you are successful in adopting a child at some point. Good on you for wanting to do that, because there are so many children out there who need homes.
I have a Graphics Shop now. Graphics Shops are cool.
I run a roleplaying site too!
Step into my library.
