    • About Me

      I was raised in a system of lies and cruelty. So, of course, the two things that matter most to me in this world are truth and kindness. (I do not, however, waste kindness on abusers or predators. They happily take your kindness, and then rip your throat out.)

      I am a left-leaning iconoclast who is into science (natural history, oh yeah, old school) and art. I like the outdoors and I like to write.

    • Close Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder

      Seven-year relationship with a cluster B, of a particularly ugly stripe, that ended in disaster. i lost just about everything. Almost four years out, still broke, but not quite as stressed out. I'll be a full time grad student this term, and teaching! Yowza.

      Treatments

      Meditation Working / Worked
      Vipassana is the best!
      Reading Somewhat Helpful
      I suppose it helped somewhat. But understanding this disorder does not make it go away.
      Talking Somewhat Helpful
    • Close Retinitis Pigmentosa

      Diagnosed at fifty one with atypical sector RP.

    • Open GERD & Heartburn

      Diagnosed about a year ago. I'm sure it is exacerbated, if not just flat out caused, by stress. I had a trauma about three years ago that led to PTSD. Have modified my diet, wear loose clothing, sleep sitting up and take Nexium and Reglan and the odd Tums, and still I have symptoms.

      Treatments

      Antacids Working / Worked
      Avoid Certain Foods / Chemicals Working / Worked
      Nexium Somewhat Helpful
      Reglan Working / Worked
