    • About Me

      Love used to be my cure for everything, but I've lost that game so many times that I'm afraid to play again. Food is now my main answer to the blues, but that must change!! I want to reconnect with Life before it is too late. Remember in the 70's how easy it was to be in love with life? All the beautiful love songs we sang, all those people saying, "All you need is love!" I want that era back! Can we take a vote?

      I am artistic, weaving, sculpture, poetry. I love nature, grew up in the woods. I don't care much for money, that's why I have none. I'm currently living with my son--27, going steady with his computer, owns an astonishing collection of Transformers toys.

      Nice to hear from you, i really miss you, And Indian summer? damn i hope its not that hot. I have been sick for like 4 straight weeks, a flu, then after that body ache, then stomach cramps and now my left hand and wrist hurts. I guess i have been so busy and not giving myself a break. I learned my lesson the hard way.

      I hope you are having a great time, take care

      From SFWriter September 4

      I agree! I have the best doctors in the world and they know and understand Fibromyalgia. I once saw a doctor years ago that insulted me and even asked me why I was using a cane. I reported him to the Board of Medical Examiners and he was scolded. Big f------ deal! He had a terrible reputation and had even made an adult male (whom I knew) cry! I don't think he's treating any Fibro patients now. Doctors like that should be SHOT.

    • Close Obesity

      Now that I'm on the downhill side of middle-age, I just can't seem to lose weight, but have no problem gaining! I have had knee problems, which added to my weight challenge immensely, since I stopped being able to walk for hours. I would love to find a friend, online, or real-time, who is also trying to exercise more and eat less. Currently I have about 125 pounds to lose before I can be called 'pleasingly plump'.

      Treatments

      Prozac Somewhat Helpful
      When I took Prozac it really had no down side for me. It did not promote a dramatic weight loss but it whipped my depression and I was able to do the rest. I took it about 18 months.
      Effexor Not Working
      The Effexor also worked fine on depression and helped reduce overall pain and fatigue. I cant say it helped much in the weight loss area but maybe it did in a way because when I went off of it after a year I began to gain weight steadily and am now heavier than I ever thought I would be.
    • Close Bipolar Disorder

      I'm cyclothymic, experienced all the ups and downs in my youth, now there are no more ups, only periodic downs. I want to talk to others of my kind...
