Comments on: Crazy 2.0 http://leahpeah.com/blog/2007/10/15/crazy-20.html flawed but authentic Fri, 16 Mar 2012 17:59:11 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Jen Ballantyne http://leahpeah.com/blog/2007/10/15/crazy-20.html#comment-3610 Jen Ballantyne Fri, 04 Jan 2008 18:06:13 +0000 http://leahpeah.com/blog/posts/2007/10/1061#comment-3610 Ya know what Leah, we're all flawed, it's the authenticity that stands out with you and that makes you, in my humble opinion, a lot less flawed than the ones that can't bare to look. Maybe your honesty scared the crap out of them because they aren't brave enough yet to admit their own (flaws that is), that is what makes people uncomfortable, I believe, not your honesty, the fact that they can't be. More power to you girl, I found you somehow and am really glad I did. As for you feeling as though you had mislead people about who you were, aren't all of us so many things and thoughts and feelings. You know that song by Whitney Houston "I'm Every Woman", well that's okay, the fact that you are brave sometimes, or do things great sometimes is enough. Anyway, just wanted to say Hi and I will subscribe to your blog, it's an honest blog and really I don't know how anyone could be so called 'normal' living in this messed up world. It's gotta take it's toll somewhere along the line. Thanks for sharing your truths.

I really like your honesty and your writing style and I wish I had found you earlier. I can relate to some of your experiences. I have had mental health issues as well. I wish you luck and happiness.

I appreciate your honesty. I think it might be fake if you didn't post about what you are going through. We moved last month, and it was a tough move for our family, so that is why I haven't been around as much. I had to stop reading blogs for a bit to get my family settled in here. I’m here.

The reason I hadn't read as much was the new site design also. I love it but just couldn't find a link. I hope you continue to feel better. I am a lurker.

But I'm talking more about the daily numbers even after I started posting again. Sure, they could come back up, but between the persistent low numbers and the emails I've received letting me know they are leaving/have left, I'm pretty sure about the numbers I stated. Again, I hope I'm not coming off as whining about it. I'm not. I'm just noticing that people feel uncomfortable around crazy people. : ) xo @Jenn – there certainly might be something to that.

Leah... can I be logical and say that your posting sort of slowed down a bit ... could that be why your readership was down? just a thought. I'm always pulling for you, whether I drop by your blog or not :-) um.

It saddened me, but I thought "That woman can write. With authenticity." I have kept coming to see how you are doing. Quoting Bobcat Goldthwaite: "I worry bout you" I think that post was the first of yours that I read.
