    • About Me

      I am a 48 yr old single woman with a 19 yr old son who is half way through college. I work for Child Protective Services. Currently, I am divorced and just trying to keep my head above water financially. There is a lot of stuff I used to love to do, but can no longer do it due to being the sole earner in my home. Also, my sons father passed away when he was 13, and his FA's family disowned him as a result. Therefore, I have been the mother, father, and everything rolled into one for my son.

      My hood is the Inland Empire or I.E. as we like to say. I like Bakersfield why do people make jokes about it? The last time I was there I saw some impressive new homes, etc.

    • Close Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder

      I have been molested at a very early age, and have experienced way too much death for a normal woman of significant others.

      Treatments

      Effexor Working / Worked
      It worked. I liked it, but the doctor also said I was bi-polar as well so he has now put me on Depakote and that seems to work fine along with counseling.
    • Close Diverticulitis
