Painful Stories

  • Focus lost to others

    Thursday, March 13, 2008 | A Painful story

    In my past few weeks while fighting so hard to make myself take the meds and do as I was told by my Dr I have found my emphasis on DS went awry. I apparantly have become less encouraging and more of a preachy person to those I never meant to offend. If I have done this to any reading this journal I deeply apologize.
    I have been informed that my words are hurtful, out of line, judgemental and basi...

    Tuesday, May 13, 2008 | A Painful story

    Dearest Friends ~ Today is the first day I return to work and the truth be known; I’m probably not ready to go back.  It’s 3:09 am and I’m hurting enough to wake me from my sleep for the second time tonight.  The second drain we were planning to remove has to now stay in because the drainage has increased again.  My lifting weight restriction is 5 lbs.  Am ta...

I liked my husband. He was who I wanted to be in love with. We were married in September 1991. That began a ten year rollercoaster ride. Even before I was diagnosed biopolar I recognized th...

  • My heart is breaking

    Tuesday, September 23, 2008 | A Painful story

    My sweet beautiful Becca has started cutting her arm. Red ugly marks on her pure pretty skin. It is not these ugly lines that upset me. They will heal. They will fade. My heart is breaking because my little girl is hurting and I don't know why.
    I'm crying and I'm scared. What can I do to take her hurt away?
