I also have an "invisible disability" and it is SO heart-breaking/ soul-breaking/ violently depressing when people won't believe you. Sadly, that is more often than not. I also do things that my doctor probably wouldn't recommend but I figure that the CONSTANT pain is so great that the consequences aren't as important right now. That doesn't mean I'm "faking" it-- it means that I'm dealing with it as much as I can, but I'm not perfect. I haven't always been a fan of GG, but I was CRUSHED when she was blind-sighted and accused of faking her illness. I know how much pain that causes, especially when it comes from people you love and trust and hold dear.

You're all saying that Janine is dead-- do we know that? I assumed Rachel just knocked her unconscious. Did I miss something? And are we just assuming that the last scene of Rachel sitting close to the railroad tracks (she was not ON them in that scene) means that she killed herself afterwards? Because I am so lost with all the comments about Janine & Rachel. Granted, I have broken ribs and toes right now and have spent a lot of time on pain meds, so maybe this was all explained away and I was all "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" at the time. I doubt it though.

What a fucking BITCH Pastor Gibson's sister is! "Get OVER it!" she yelled at her daughter. Fuck. YOU. I say this as a recovering addict who had to face the fact that I had to earn everyone's trust again because a few months sober isn't going to make up for the hell and the lies I put my family & friends through for many, many YEARS. I don't give the woman much time left to be sober if she's not willing to take responsibility for her actions while she was a "using" addict nor accept that she truly, deeply hurt her daughter and all her loved ones.
