I saw my psychologist yesterday. It was the first time in three weeks. We talked about what had being going on in my life during those weeks. I have a hard time accepting compliments, but she gave me one, which really meant a lot to me. She said that after all I have gone through in my lifetime, including that which I am going through now, she did not know how I...1 Recommendation7 Comments -
In the past 24 hours I have not only discovered that I have MPD but have identified three others who share my body. It has me convinced that I am crazy and apparently my doctor thinks I'm nuts too as I went to see her today because my stumps have been burning so severely that I have been forced to use my w/chair. My doctor examined ny stumps and said that that there was nothing wrong with the...2 Recommendations5 Comments

Last night, I went to bed and thought that I would get a good night’s sleep. It did not turn out that way. About three o’clock, I suddenly awoke to the sound of people outside my apartment door. I became scared, but tried some deep breathing, which helped me to relax.
An hour or so later, I dreamed that there were men in my bedroom who were sexu...1 Recommendation7 Comments -
Things haven't gone very well for the past month or so. My ex is lingering with renal cancer and my youngest son is still in Texas with him and his step-mother.
I've had my ups and downs dealing with this on top of everything else and right now, I'm just a bit sad. You don't live with another person for 22 years and flip off the feelings like a light switch.
Today...2 Recommendations4 Comments -
Truth: I am up again at 3 a.m. unable to sleep. I remember that night telling myself that I was strong. Well, when someone I knew told me that I am a strong person, it made me feel good. I didn't feel strong the night of the rape despite telling him, "No!" multiple times, and him not respecting me as well as drugging me.
Lie: He kept manipulating me to g...1 Recommendation8 Comments -

I went to another counseling session with my brother yesterday. The results were definitely not good, and I am not sure whether I really want to continue with this.
In addition to my brother and me, my therapist, Dale, and psychologist, Dr. Martin, were also there.
For almost an hour, we seemed to be getting along well, and making some progress. My broth...2 Recommendations8 Comments -
I have been having pain in my hand for over a year now, and finally I told my doctor that I can not take it anymore. I am wearing a brace, and my back is hurt from work too. My doctor worked with my hands and was concerned. I go back today, and it hurts worse, they both do. Anyways, he said that he will take the next step today. I wonder what it will be.1 Recommendation5 Comments

Nothing seems to be going quite right this week. It has been difficult for me to sleep at night, and when this happens, it seems to throw the whole following day out of whack.
This morning was a continuation of the whole lousy week. One of my CNA's who I trust the most, informed me that she was going to quit working with me one hour in the mornings and one ...1 Recommendation5 Comments
