To my dear friends,
I realize that my recent actions, have offended some of my friends here on Daily Strength. Though I do appreciate the love and support I have recieved, I have also read some messages that have disturbed me. Even though you may be mad at me, there is no reason to disrespect me or my family. Informing me to get with God or burn in hell or accusing my boyfriend, who has been worki...

Strangeness has come over me this morning. I am feeling neither good nor bad. I feel as though I am awake and know what is going on around me, but I am just going through the motions of living.
My mood is down again. During the weekend, past memories have been surging up into my mind. I have tried not to think about them, but that is impossible. Some of them fill...1 Recommendation7 Comments -
I went to see the new shrink yesterday, She was nice enough but took herself very seriously. She tried to help me understand what was going on with me and "the gang." The thing that seemed to interest her the most was the different swxual preferences that each of us have. At the end of the interview she asked me to show her my arms and when she saw that I had fresh cuts she went to...3 Recommendations5 Comments

Somehow, in writing about my trip to the hospital last week, I inadvertently neglected to mention that I sustained some burns on my legs while there. This was something I was not even aware of until going to bed the night that I returned home.
When my CNAs removed my pants, I heard them commenting about some burns/bruises, they had seen on my legs.&nbs...1 Recommendation10 Comments -

Last night I learned that I was not the only one who came away from our family conference with negative feelings. My sister (Alice) called about six o'clock and started ranting and raving concerning things she took exception to, during that meeting. It was evident that she was extremely upset. I could hear the anger in her voice, and at times, ...1 Recommendation7 Comments -

This has been one of those bad days. I wish that I could forget it ever existed, but I do not think there is any way of doing that.
My home healthcare nurse came to see me today. It started out as her normal weekly visit. She wanted to irrigate my bladder with a liquid antibiotic. Since I was already on some pills for my UTI, I refused to let her do...1 Recommendation7 Comments -

This has not been a good day for me. I am practically furious with one of the CNA's who helps me get up in the mornings and go to bed at night. Before I was even out of bed this morning, she accused me of causing trouble between her and one other CNA who works at night with her. Her accusation was a complete lie. I told her that I needed to talk with her and...1 Recommendation6 Comments -

What a week! There has been the usual amount of frustrations and irritations, but I am managing to get through them. I have also had to face up to the fact that I am causing some of my own problems.
Something has been going on in my life for about a year, or more, that has been causing me an increasing amount of worry and anger. I have kept this a secret from ev...1 Recommendation8 Comments -
Today was a fairly busy day full of school, homework, and random errends. Anyway, walking back to my dorm today I actually got made fun of for how I walk. I was kind of taken by surprise as it hadn't happened in a while and I figured people at college would be a little more mature. My walking has improved though so I am happy about that. My walking is worse when I'm tired and I limp more ...2 Recommendations6 Comments
