  • YUP Im MANIC!!

    Thursday, March 20, 2008 | An Anxious story

    Got to see the inside of the house yesterday! It is beautiful! Gorgeous woodwork! The kitchen is upstairs with a big balcony off of it. French doors off of the master bedroom. Huge game room. It's perfect for us! I just hope I get my paperwork in on time! I'm still going to look at three more on Saturday just so I don't pass something better up. Although I don't think were go...

    We put our bid in on the house. Now lets see if the people take it. This means we will be moving sometime in the nest 45 days or so. YUK! I hate moving! It sucks! I did it for 9 yrs in the military. Were going to get movers to do it because John cant lift anything due to his surgery.

    Well it's day four of my recent wave of anxiety. It's this constant spinning inside my head, a wave of spiraling fear and confusion. I am no good to my famil;y like this. Man writting this is making me cry. I cried in town yesterdy. Stood with my wife near warrington market and I just burst into tears. The Cipralex pills Iv'e been on for 12 months only take the edge off for a week or ...

  • Daddy continues to fade

    Wednesday, July 23, 2008 | An Anxious story

    July 23, 2008 -- I spent the weekend with my parents and Daddy has failed a lot since I was there last. He is under hospice care which appears to be good but he does not like having to depend on others and Mama does not like having people in her house.  So it was a stressful weekend.
    Since nobody reads this, I will leave it there.

  • MAJOR SURGERY TOMORROW!!

    Wednesday, July 30, 2008 | An Anxious story

    Tomorrow I am having ankle reconstruction for the 2nd time in 8 years.  I am a little nervous about this one though.  They are having to use cadaver parts and steel and pins in my ankle.  They told me that I would be in a wheelchair the first 2 months of my post op and after that they would discuss it with me.  I am not scared really about the surgery, I know I need that. ...

  • my horrific discovery

    Monday, November 24, 2008 | An Anxious story

    Well, I saw my new dentist today.  I asked him to take an X-ray of my root canal to see if there was decay up there.  I also wanted to see if the old dentist had left roots in when he pulled my last 2 teeth tp make a full denture.  After reading the report on my old dentist and the awful work he'd done on many, many people, I wanted to see what he had done to me.  Yes, he ...

  • Chronic anxiety

    Saturday, February 28, 2009 | An Anxious story

    We're supposed to get about 6" of snow on Monday, so I'm off to the market today to stock up. I still have the old remnants of agoraphobia bothering me...even after 35 years.  I have to force myself to go out and drive to the store.  Once I'm there, I'm fine...it's just getting there!! So here I sit, typing away and trying to postpone getting off my rotund fanny...

    It has been 4 weeks since my heart attack.  I feel mostly good, yet I am also anxious and sad.  I feel like I spend a lot of time in my head thinking about everything that has happened, wondering what my life expectancy is and how did I let this happen?
    I  sometimes just want to lay down and sleep for a long time.  Yet at times it scares me to go to sleep because I think about ...
