About Me
I am an artist, wife, a step-mom, a friend and . . . I love life now. I am thankful for being healthy and living a full life today. I have been through a lot in my life. And also live today to say that despite all of the negative stuff, I not only survived but I thrive. I know that I am a miracle that I deserve more than mere existence breathing. Everyone does. You out there are all miracles. and I hope for my experience strength and hope can help others.

Interests
I love drumming circles, meditation, my art, camping, reading, writing, and goofing off with my husband. As a new step mom, I love being a mom! I am not able to have kids of my own (by birth) and I am very happy to have the chance to be a positive force in my step daughters life. I enjoy being able to give back what I have recieved.

Hug
Awww sweetie. Just knowimg you're there helps me tremendously. The house and things will be done slowly but surely. I just wish that I could get a hold of my emotions, now. Today was my last day of work and I fell apart walking out to my car. First time it's gotten to me like that.

Close Cervical Cancer
In April of 2008 i was diagnosed with cervical cancer. had a radical hysterectomy and fortunately didn't have to have chemo or radiation. I now of course can't have kids and it saddens me at times.
Treatments
- Hysterectomy Working / Worked
- It was traumatic. I became very saddened. I can't have kids of my own. I had a miscarriage when i was seventeen so I am grieving the loss. especially since i just got married.
Close Eating Disorders
Type: AnorexiaI began restricting and having strict rules about food when i was about 10 and was fully into my ED by 12. In my late 20's I lived a short stint relatively okay and now seek to find recovery.
Treatments
- Dietitian Consult Not Working
- Didn't do a thing to help me
- Group Therapy Not Working
- didn't work for me
- Lexapro Somewhat Helpful
- it stopped and now I take other medication although I am doubtful. I am still very depressed
- Overeaters Anonymous (OA) Too Soon to Tell
- I can't say that it didn't work and I can't say it did work. I can say that I am willing now to follow direcdtions and that I only have to do it for one day
- Paxil Not Working
- didn't work for me
- Psychotherapy Working / Worked
- This helps. I have been using EMDR and wow what a difference in how I respond to life stressers
- Support from Friends & Family Not Working
- I feel stuck. Even though I know they care I still choose negative behaviors
Open Alcoholism
Treatments
- 12 Step Program Working / Worked
- 8-7-08 was my first day of sobriety and i enter aa and here I am. sober for today
- AA Meetings Working / Worked
- i got a sponsor and i work the 12 steps. i trust in God clean house and help others.
Open Multiple Personalities
in 1995 i was diagnosed DID. went through treatment that I ran from in the end. because i got worse not better. last year i got sober. and my dissociation has followed me into sobriety. my husband knows more than one of "me". i have no way to deny it. and I am pissed.
