      From reddutchgirl November 2, 2008

      Hey just wanted to let you know that I managed to catch up on some of my friend's journal entries and I left comments. I've had a rough time this past month caring for my sick dog that we had to put down on Halloween. So, it wasn't that I didn't want to read everyone's journal entries, I just couldn't. I hope that you have a wonderful peaceful Sunday!!!! Thank goodness for the time change as I got an extra hour today. I thought I was crazy when the clock on the computer didn't match the ones in the house. lol

    • Close Trichotillomania (Hair Pulling)
      Type: Trichotillomania

      I've been pulling since before I can remember. In fifth grade I shaved my head to try to remedy the problem, but it only delayed it. Now I have a growing bald spot in the usual area. It never stops.

    • Open Miscarriage

      I've had two miscarriages, both during the first trimester, because of negative RH factor, and one ectopic pregnancy that left me with one fallopian tube. The pain is finally healing with the news of my newest baby coming! The other's were never meant to be.

    • Open Codependency

      I've been codependent since before I can remember, for my alcoholic mother. My last boyfriend was an abusive drug addict, and beat me routinely, still I stayed with him, it wasn't until he stabbed me a couple times I had the courage to leave.

    • Open Physical & Emotional Abuse

      My last boyfriend used to routinely beat me every night, and finally stabbed me five times, once in the arm, once in the leg, and three times in my right knee. It was the only thing that allowed me to get out.
