    • Interests

      My passions are cooking and music. I've been studying classical voice since 1994 and realise there is so much more to learn! I love to cook! My philosophy on cooking is pure simplicity so most of my dishes are 3 to 5 ingredients (not including salt/pepper/water). Granted I love to dive into elegant dishes which exceed the 3 to 5 ingredients as I feel if you must have complex dishes in your repetoir keep them few and master them completely. Currently I've been very experimental on ice cream making. I've been experimental because I am lactose intolerant thus dairy-free/egg-free ice creams have been my focus. Other leisures including reading, particularly spiritualy building. I do love fiction but find I must be grabbed from the get go to finish. Movies are another passion/leisure for me too. Usually period movies from all cultures, particularly Europe and Asian, are a sure bet. But there is no genre I would not watch...then again, the trailer must grab me from the get-go or from a few reliable critics.

  • Support Groups

    • Close Stress Management

      I have a tendency of allowing "little" things get in the way, focusing on things completely out of my control. I get overwhelmed to the point where I will break into tears, stiff jaws, or worse, bedwetting.

      Treatments

      Music Working / Worked
      I find by totally immersing myself and focusing on the music I listen to it calms me down a great deal.
      Patience Working / Worked
      When practising meditation exercises it allowed me to calm down and focus on the moment.
    • Close Gay Men's Challenges

      We all have challenges...some are greater than others...some I can handle on my own but sometimes it's nice to connect with someone who can give other perspectives and advice. Also, I love to help others when I am able. Sounds like a great group to join.

    • Open Colds & Flu

      Since September 2007 I've had about 8 to 10 colds. I've known others who've had more frequency. It's very frustrating as it comes in spurts and then I get a break of six months.

      Treatments

      Chicken Soup Working / Worked
      Usually makes me feel good.
      Vitamin C Working / Worked
      I tend to up the amount of Vitamin C when I am down.
    • Open Depression

      This is reather new to me. After some reflection I have begun to wonder if I have tendencies of depression or may have an depression disorder. My sister is on medication and I believe my mother, and some of her sisters, may have it without realising.

      Treatments

      Meditation Somewhat Helpful
      Does work but must admit I'm not very disciplined with the upkeep on this practise.
      Positive Thinking Somewhat Helpful
      Psychotherapy Considering
      It worked when I was in couples therapy...perhaps more one-on-one will be better.
