About Me
I am a Psychiatric Nurse to children and youth. My career stopped dead March 28th a year ago when I developed seizures and ended up in Physical Rehabilitaion for pain and loss of use of my legs. I have a Harley and just started riding a year when I was stopped cold. I am a student of Native Americans and am recovering in body mind and spirit. I have just recieved my Medical Retirement. What does one do now that they are retired with benefits. Pain is getting better each day. That is not fair to all of you who are suffering more. But the Psychological bruises still sting. I now have my disability and am thinking about what I do next.

Thanks for the hug! I do get off of this site when I feel overwhelmed. I generally get a lot of encouragement from reaching out to people here. I think I may want to pursue counseling as a career someday. How are things going for you?

Open Brain Injury
I had a mild concussion which resulted in having 2 documented seizures. When I woke up from the second one I could not walk due to the extreme pain in my legs. I have been in PT OT and Speech therapy since then.
Open Schizophrenia
I have felt and told I was different all my life. The Doc after sorting out everything else that is going on sent me to a very good Neurologist. He and a good Psychologist said that I have Schizophreniform disorder. So that is that. I guess you might say I am coming out. It is very hard for me to accept this being in the profession I am in. The only people who formally know are my best friend and my son and daughter.
