Little Love
I am sorry you had a similar situation- I know what you mean being sick to see them around kids; to have their own kids too, and you wonder if they will be living in a virtual hell for their childhood. I worry mostly about what my silence has cost others- I dunno. I've been quiet all my life about it, I don't know how to grasp at a power I never had.
Hug
everything is going to be fine, shes a lucky girl to have a Mom like you :)
Ray of Sunshine
I admire you for your strength after having been through so much.

Oh, and this for you, too!!
Autobiography In Five Short Chapters
Chapter 1.
I walk down the street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I fall in.
I am lost…
I am helpless.
It isn’t my fault.
It takes forever to find a way out.
Chapter 2.
I walk down the same street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I pretend I don’t see it.
I fall in again.
I cant believe I am in this same place.
But it isn’t my fault.
It still takes a long time to get out.
Chapter 3.
I walk down the same street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I see it is there.
I still fall in… its a habit.
But, my eyes are open.
I know where I am.
It is my fault.
I get out immediately.
Chapter 4.
I walk down the same street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I walk around it.
Chapter 5.
I walk down another street.

Oh, dear Laynie, I wish I would have dropped by sooner.....my mom just passed away a couple of weeks ago, and she had Kaiser insurance, and they sent me a package of pamphlets and stuff about grief....one of them is a flyer with different grief support groups in the P-land area. I will be moving (Lord willing) soon, and one of them will be right near where I live. I want to start going once I settle in. So if you're interested, and/or can, the one I want to go to, meets on the 2nd and 4th Wednesday of the month from 4-5:30 in room A of Kaiser 's Town Hall, 3704 N Interstate Av. (across from Overlook park)....there is also one in Vancouver that meets on the 1st and 3rd Mondays of the month from 4-5:30 in Conference room 2 of Salmon Creek medical office 14406 NE 20th Av. I hope you can come, it would be so nice to have you there with me if you can. If not, I hope the one in Vancouver. Whatever you do, I will always be thinking of you and your family.
((((( lotsa hugs )))))

Close Eating Disorders
Type: AnorexiaI am a 33 yr old divorced mother of four children. I have 3 beautiful daughters and a son who passed away in a car accident in 2001. I have suffered with an ED since I was 14 off and on. I currently for the most part am in recovery.
Treatments
- Residential Treatment Center Working / Worked
- When I was there for me, by me, it worked. When I was ready to recover I saw the benefits of it. The several times before had very little impact on me at all
Close Depression
Type: Clinical (Major) DepressionI am a divorced mother of four children. I have 3 beautiful daughters and a son that passed away in a car accident March 10, 2001. I have been diagnosed with Borderline, Anorexia, PTSD and Dysthymia
Treatments
- Desipramine Not Working
- lowered my BP to a point where I could not stand, spent three days in bed
- Elavil Not Working
- worked for a while but then started affecting my BP like every other med
- Lexapro Not Working
- Gave me a non stop migraine from the day I started it
- Prozac Not Working
- Made me very angry, beyond normal anger. Actually felt capable of homicide...SCAREY!
- Psychotherapy Working / Worked
- Has kept me alive thus far and has been a great safety net when I needed it.
Open Bereavement
Type: Loss of a ChildI lost my 3 yr old son in a car accident on ice. I was driving and it was declared no fault/weather related but I still feel so much responsibility. After that my marriage ended in divorce and now I am raising my three beautiful girls alone. We have joint custody and they do well with it, but its a shame they have to. It's been near 6 years and I still feel like I am at square one in dealing with this.
Treatments
- Crying Working / Worked
- IF i can cry it works. I rarely cry as I fear I will never stop.
- Prayer Working / Worked
- It does work, however I get frustrated when I don't get the answers and healing I seek fast enough.
- Psychotherapy Working / Worked
- Really helped when I had that as an option. I miss it a lot now that I don't have it anymore.
Open Adoption
I was adopted at birth when I was only a few days old. My adoption was a private closed adoption and it has forever left a void in my life.
Treatments
- Psychotherapy Working / Worked
- IT was helping, but that void will always remain until I can find out who my birth mom is.
Open Asthma
Type: Childhood AsthmaMy 12 yr old daughter has asthma. She was doing much better till we moved from Iowa to WA state.
Treatments
- Advair Working / Worked
- Seemed to work while she was on it. But she was on so many different things it is hard to tell what works or doesn't anymore. Combo's do the trick for her
- Breathing Exercises Working / Worked
- She did these when she was a toddler to increase her lung capacities. She has not done any in years.
- Inhaler Working / Worked
- Albuterol is her friend!Been on many others as well!
- Singulair Working / Worked
- Worked for awhile, but then she seemed to build a tolerance against it where it became ineffective.
- Flonase Working / Worked
- Since her asthma seems to be triggered a lot by her sinuses not draining, they plug completely full, this really helps get her over the hump!
Open Spina Bifida
Type: spina bifida occultaMy 4 yr old daughter was diagnosed with Spina Bifida Occulta Tethered cord, a few months ago. She just had tethered cord surgery Sept 24th.
Treatments
- Surgery Too Soon to Tell
- She just had surgery on Sept. 24th. I hope this works for her. It was found during a visit to see her urologist. MRI was "borderline" but was confirmed with urodynamic testing.
Open Bipolar Disorder
Diagnosed with bipolar with borederline tendencies. Off meds because nothing has worked reacted to nearly all.
