About Me
I have dealt with a lot of stuff since March '08. I have overcome dealing with a devastating breakup that changed my entire life, and living with my ex for seven months afterward, which was very mutually abusive. Since I moved out of that situation, I've been living on my own with my dog, who is my life. I hang out with my friends, and try to have fun, but something recently has come up that is destroying my life. My struggle goes on, just different circumstances always.

You said in your "About Me" to feel free to get to know you. I was looking at your profile and saw similar descriptions of my disorders. The anxiety attacks sound familiar. That is how I lost my career due to an anxiety attack. I am also bipolar and ADHD-plus a few others. I'd love to get to know you better and see what treatments have worked for you. Tamara
Hug
I was scrolling through my friends, and realized that I haven't been a very good one to you, have I? I'm sorry that things are so rough, right now. I'd like to say I have a ton of wisdom for you, but I just plain don't. I hope you move forward with your life, and allow the true grief of losing your boyfriend to start to dim, a bit. I also hope that as spring has arrived with more sunshine, it helps you have some happy days. hugs, baggy

Open Bisexuality

Open Blindness & Visual Impairment
Type: Partially SightedI was born with Coloboma, which I still don't fully understand. I am almost completely blind in my left eye, and I can achieve 20/40.5 in my right eye with best correction. There is nothing that can be done to improve my vision. I have learned, over the past 22 years, how to cope.
Open Heroin Addiction & Recovery
I am beginning to see a problem with my drug use, and it scares the hell out of me.
