I have a lot of friends and family I can count on. Especially my best friend. He always makes me laugh, and he just takes all the pain away. Then my other friend who is also relation, I can tell her about anything, and she tries to help, and I know she'll do whatever she can to make me feel better, because it's just who she is, she can't help herself. I also have another friend, who drives me crazy a lot of the time, but I know he'll do about anything for me if it's in his power, I'm lucky that I have so many people I can count on.

I have tons of friends, but usually I call my mom or sister, and before you know it we are all laughing about something stupid. And it works in reverse also they call me when they are feeling down.

The first person I usually call when I am down is my mother. Besides being a mom, she is a great friend. If I can't get her I call my sister Kelly. She is my baby sister and is always there to listen. Then I also have a best friend named Kelly that would be here in a heartbeat. It is kind of spooky. She usually calls when I am down like she knows ahead of time.

you are lucky in that respect i was abused by both of my parents and used as a punching bag when things made them mad then i had to hide cause i knew what was coming they would beat me with brooms try to rip the hair off of my head my father mostly he was a drunk so i can never count on them for any comfort when they are the ones causing the discomfort be glad your parents love and take good care of u sometimes we are not as lucky as u my friends are here for me now and i have no more contact with either of my parents which is a funny thing my father wrote me and asked for my forgiveness i dont think i can do that he said something else too me that i knew was the reason for the letter he is getting up in age and is health is failing he wants me to look after him i think to myself u got to be kidding so embrace your family cause u are 1 of the lucky ones

i only have few friends but they are all loyal and whom i can trust..but some of them are too busy with their work..but i know that they are always there if ever i need them..and that's for sure..
but as of now..my man,(which is my boyfriend)were always here by my side,if ever i need someone to talk to..he's always willing to listen to me,and give me the best comfort ever..which is "hug!"..he also gave me some words of wisdom and encouragement..and he's always telling me that he will never leave me and will always be here for me if ever i need a crying shoulder..
i also have my ate's and kuya's..who's always ready to give me some pieces of advice and share some experience..i love them all because they gave me strength when i am weak..
and also,my family..eventhough we're not that close to each other,I know that they will always be there for me.

I have many friends to count on, whenever I am feeling down. However, I do not show that I am feeling down, and I hardly ever ask for help when I am. I just need some time alone when I'm feeling down, and my problem certainly is solved.
But yes, I know there are many people on which I can count.

I used to have three real best friends and unfortunately lost two of them through petty squabbles and am currently losing one due to long distance. I finally appreciate having best friends now that I don't have any!
But I do have a really great boyfriend who I count on a lot when I'm down, even if he doesn't know what's wrong his company makes me feel better.
And strangely my mother from time to time makes me feel better.
And if you don't mind me asking, what about yourself?

the only way i can wind down is with a good book a favorite tv show or just hugging my 5 cats they are always there when i am down their kisses of love and devotion and acceptibility mean more to me than anything they are always there for comfort and give me a reason to buck up and realize that there is somebody who has it alot worse than me i should just be greatful for what i have. i have only about 4 good human friends one in which i lost by distance the other 3 are always supportive and they show me that they care and are always there for me we talk on the phone we go out to movies all of which lifts the grief off of me and i can smile again

I know I can talk to my friends, Jeremy and Joshua about anything. They are really wonderful people. I know I have other friends, but these two are like brothers to me.

I have my husband who I can always count on to be there for me when the going gets tough. I also have two other friends who also I can count on as well. One lives far away though and it is hard to keep in contact with. But I know she is there for me no matter what.

I count on my family and a true friend.I am a mother of two in a very difficult situation,undergoing a whole lot of depression.But my parents and this special friend that God has blessed me with have really stood by me in my difficult time.They are my pillar of support in every way.I thank God for giving me such a wonderful family and a true friend,and that's you Hemani.
