  • It's done

    Tuesday, August 12, 2008 | A Sad story

    Well, it took me about 3.5 hours to author, but at 2:30 AM, I sent out my resignation letter...officially ending one of, if not THE, greatest experiences I have had in my entire life.  Although I am very sad and empty right now, I am very thankful that I had an opportunity to spend six years of my life serving such a fantastic group of people.
    If you have ever seen the movie "Findin...

  • No longer sober

    Wednesday, May 27, 2009 | A Sad story

    I'm no longer sober as of today.  Monday I broke my sobriety and last night though I didn't have contact with pornography I may as well have.  I am still engaging in the addictive behavior to cope with my life.  One thing that makes it tough is I have a lot of pre-conceptions regarding life that aren't necessarily based in reality.  Real for me, but not necessarily...

  • Seriously considering lap band surgery...

    Saturday, July 11, 2009 | A Sad story

    Today I find myself seriously considering the lap band surgery. I saw my medical notes today, dr says I am now morbidly obese and without bariatric surgery my health will probably never improve. Said on my chart either pre-diabetic or diabetic.
    I don't know what to do. I would like to try to do the diabetic diet again, as it worked for me when I was younger. But no that I am older I don't ...

  • My Kitty is So Sick

    Wednesday, August 5, 2009 | A Sad story

    My kitty, Arlo is having a hard time breathing, coughing and sneezing.  He has had these symptoms for about 2 months now.  First the vet thought he had asthma, then a bacterial infection and now he is not sure.  We are taking him to get some tests done on Fri.  My anxiety is outrageous right now.  I am so tired of "life."
    If my kitty dies, a part of me would die....

    Thursday, August 13, 2009 | A Sad story


    i have been told that the advice i give is wrong, unhelpful and misguided. so im sorry for anyone that i have hurt or offended through my advice. i would like everyone to know the most important thing i think for people with OCD is to get professional help, i understand that OCD is caused by a chemical imbalance in the brain and that medication helps to restore that balance, i think therapy, CBT ...
