  • My Life -- A Living Nightmare

    Thursday, May 22, 2008 | A Painful story

    Thursday, May 22, 2008 -- 7:55 PM
    I saw my psychologist yesterday. It was the first time in three weeks. We talked about what had being going on in my life during those weeks. I have a hard time accepting compliments, but she gave me one, which really meant a lot to me. She said that after all I have gone through in my lifetime, including that which I am going through now, she did not know how I...

  • I am freaking about having MPD

    Wednesday, June 11, 2008

    In the past 24 hours I have not only discovered that I have MPD but have identified three others who share my body. It has me convinced that I am crazy and apparently my doctor thinks I'm nuts too as I went to see her today because my stumps have been burning so severely that I have been forced to use my w/chair. My doctor examined ny stumps and said that that there was nothing wrong with the...

  • Ups and Downs

    Friday, June 13, 2008 | A Painful story

    Friday, June 13, 2008 -- Update
    I have ups and downs in life, just as most people do. There are times when I only have one or two things going badly, but there are days when I feel as though my whole world is crashing down around me. That was how it felt this morning. It has not gotten much better, but I am trying to deal with it, rather than running away from it.
    This morning I was EXTREMELY up...

Lisa almost got me us in trouble once when she was nearly arrested for prostitution and we have been tryng very hard to control her since then...

  • Unwanted Memories

    Wednesday, July 2, 2008 | A Painful story

    Wednesday, July 2, 2008 -- 11:10 A.M.
    Last night, I went to bed and thought that I would get a good night’s sleep. It did not turn out that way. About three o’clock, I suddenly awoke to the sound of people outside my apartment door. I became scared, but tried some deep breathing, which helped me to relax.
    An hour or so later, I dreamed that there were men in my bedroom who were sexu...

    Ok, guys this is a general update but it's been painful too. Since August 26th, my roomie has been rocking back and forth. I've had alot of stress lately in my life. Dealing with the system, dealing with matt. I love him but at the same time, I don't know where his head's at sometimes. He's hard for me to figure out I think. He says a bunch of stuff about my family and me of c...

  • Hurt, Angry, and Betrayed

    Tuesday, March 10, 2009 | A Painful story

    Tuesday, March 10, 2009 - 10:25 AM 
    I went to another counseling session with my brother yesterday. The results were definitely not good, and I am not sure whether I really want to continue with this.
    In addition to my brother and me, my therapist, Dale, and psychologist, Dr. Martin, were also there.
    For almost an hour, we seemed to be getting along well, and making some progress. My broth...

  • Feeling Hurt and Betrayed

    Saturday, June 27, 2009 | A Painful story

    Saturday, June 27, 2009 - 9:50 AM
    Nothing seems to be going quite right this week. It has been difficult for me to sleep at night, and when this happens, it seems to throw the whole following day out of whack.
    This morning was a continuation of the whole lousy week. One of my CNA's who I trust the most, informed me that she was going to quit working with me one hour in the mornings and one ...
