    • About Me

      I'm 25, married (almost 7 years now), and have a beautiful son (he's 16m today!). I've recently been diagnosed with PTSD, Fibromyalgia, & Bipolar Type II. I have a degree in Medical Massage and I am a certified Nursing Aide. However, the Fibro has taken those gifts from me. I love being a massage therapist and a nursing aide with all of my heart, but I phsyically can't do either job any more. I need an outlet like this one to draw some strength from. I need to vent and I need inspiration. I'm glad I stumbled on this site!

      Sarah, once again thanks so much for commenting and complimenting me on my journal entry. I was in a very dark place this week and music helped see me through it. It is a comfort to me when a artist writes what I am feeling. Wish I had the talent to do it myself............that would be too much work! Have a great weekend!
