    • About Me

      Musician. Aries. A flair for the dramatic. I sing with the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra Chorus and Chamber Chorus. (I have two grammy awards for classical recordings with the ASOC) I have a bachelor's in Music Education but I still don't know what I want to be when I "grow up". I have two cats, Emma Peel & Dexter, and volunteer for Furkids Atlanta (www.furkids.org.) I love to read, mostly fantasy, sci-fi, comics, and I especially enjoy young adult fiction/fantasy. I sew, mostly making costumes and corsets. I love sparkly things, especially antique costume jewelry. I collect foreign coins. I have a 1976 Vespa Sprint Veloce and am a part of the Scarlett Fever Scooter Club. A few times a year I perform under the stage name "May Delight" with the fine and foxy (and unusually talented) ladies of Blast Off Burlesque (http://www.blastoffburlesque.com).

    • Close Bipolar Disorder

      DX summer 2007 after therapist suggested it might be more than depression. Consulted several doctors about it, found a pdoc. Pdoc tried me on 11 meds so far with Lithium being the best to date. Trying to take it one day at a time.

      Treatments

      Did great on this for a couple months then crashed and locked myself in a bathroom.
      Geodon Not Working
      Lamictal Not Working

      Holding steady on 1200mg daily.

    • Close Food Addiction

      My grandmother taught my mother that food fixes things. My mother taught it to me. Now I'm a thirty-something who struggles with using food as a treatment for my Bi-polar disorder. I'm looking for support from others who know what it's like when food is "calling your name".

      Treatments

      Phentermine Too Soon to Tell
      71509 is my first day on phentermine and Im not looking for a miracle but I am hoping it will help with my constant need to feed my face so that I can do my part of the job.
