  • Still Shaky w/ Abstinence

    Sunday, April 6, 2008

    I know what I'm doing is not good for my body? Why haven't I been able to stop? My emotions don't seem to be the culprit. Getting obsessed over the tiniest things seems to be a trigger. Shopping is a trigger. I have to be more aware of negative self talk. It could be as little as "I am taking too long completing this goal". Actually, that's a very common comment I make t...

    Wednesday, May 20, 2009 | A Tragic story

    Today was the worst day of my life. DH and I woke early to get everything ready for our first OB appointment. We brought the camcorder to get everything from the u/s (best thing we ever did for u/s #1) and a blank DVD for that off chance that they would be able to burn the pics for us. I was so sick as usual gagging all the way to the dr. I had this huge smile as the receptionist asked me to take...

  • Terrifying

    Friday, January 9, 2009

    Yesterday I had one of the most terrifying experiences of my life.  And am not sure how much of it was due to my stupidity.
    It was either a med reaction (Neurontin not mixing with allergy meds) OR an accidental overdose (me taking 3x 300 mgs on Neurontin on an empty stomach which has been OK the few times I have done it before now -- but people in the DBSA group last night reminded me of the ...

I got the carriers switched into my truck, and climbed in to leave. I started having trouble with the front wheels, so I got out to look, just as Red came running up to the passenger...

  • No .... please ......

    Friday, December 19, 2008 | A Tragic story

    Just found out that the money I will make from SSDI is considered "too high"for government help on my rent.  The money IS how much rent is in LA.
    I sadly repeat: the money I will make monthly IS how much rent would be on an apartment in Los Angeles if I want to live in an area that is actually safe.
    I would like to live alone because, even though Roger and Charlotte are great, I walk...
