    Thursday, February 28, 2013 | A Rambling story

    So, January 10, 2013 I had a catheter ablation to fix my SVT. My doctor and I both agree that it was successful; I'm so relieved! That arrhythmia was scaring the ba-geeeezus out of me. Anyway, I'm now scheduled for ANOTHER laparoscopy for next Wednesday (3/6/13.) It won't have even been a year since my last one. :( I think that one happened last May or so.) That surgeon removed endometriosis but ...

    So, I had my second laparoscopy Wednesday. I'm doing well, considering. my first one was done May 29, 2012. the second one was March 6, 2013. not too far apart, but my first one was not complete. that doctor left endo in my deep tissue. man, I wish he'd been more forthcoming with his ability to remove endometriosis. I remember sitting in his office, and him telling me he'd remove it all unless it...

    Saturday, March 9, 2013 | A Rambling story

    Today I got nothing done. I slept in late, and then napped. I felt really disconnected and distant from Dave. I had a list of things to do... I guess I will have to do them tomorrow. I feel lazy, bloated. I feel upset for what seems like no reason. Little things are bothering me but it's like my reaction to them is out of proportion. Wonder if I will be able to help others with mental health if I...

  • Another sleepless night...

    Wednesday, March 13, 2013 | A Rambling story

    I don't have many sleepless nights, but they're becoming more frequent. I can't really explain it other than I think I'm just mental. When I say this I don't mean to sound mocking, cliche, or stupid even it's just the truth. I've been tested. I've even spent a little time in a mental hospital when I was younger because apparently I've been against living since I was little. My mom says at first s...

  • When people who don't understand try to give you advice.

    Friday, March 22, 2013 | A Rambling story

    I just had someone tell me to force myself to get up in the morning, and try to go to bed early. If it was that simple, I would have done it by now, and I would be working more. Is is that simple? I didn't want to explain that when I wake up in the morning I would rather not be awake. I guess I should at least try. Next semester I want to plan all early classes so that I'm forced to get up and go...

  • Bored...

    Thursday, March 28, 2013 | A Rambling story

    I am bored and on a manic-ing high right now so my fingers are typing at the speed of light, my mind is racing against them, and my body is humming like it's on adrenaline. I feel wonderful though. I'd rather be having a manic high episode than a manic low. I am wasting some time waiting to calm down a little before I get up and take a shower because I might end up putting on an hour long perform...

    Saturday, March 30, 2013 | A Rambling story

    I was diagnosed with Fibromylagia 2 days ago. My mom wants to know what she did so wrong that I have so many health problems(fibro, pcos, reoccurring sinus infections and tonsillitis, and diverticulitis). My husband is being super supportive. Every time I miss place something or get a little cranky my sister says "Oh, Fibromyalgia!" I can't be upset with her. She is 15. I am just relieved but ang...

    Man it has been such a long 2 weeks.  Started off having to take my mom to the ER last Thursday which resulted in a 4 day hospital stay.  Glad she is finally doing better and back home.  Then just the usual pains and mood swings.  I just don't know how much more of this mess I can take.  I'm trying to be patient with my damn bf because he just won't go make the time to ta...

    Monday, April 15, 2013 | A Rambling story

    Dont know what really happen, But the way I am feeling is hard for e to talk about. I woke up okay, But feel like really nothing right now. Went clothes shopping to get some work out pants and a dress, and every time a shop with my skinny friend I get so sad cause she is so thin. It is hard to fit in to small clothes with large breast and so it seems they are always hanging out. I feel like I hav...

    I have been dealing with chronic pain and fibro for almost 5 years.  I have recently started to feel pissed off about everything.  I have no patience with people in my life and I have thought about ending my life.  I know I need help, but I just don't care anymore.
