    • About Me

      I am single w/3 great cats and 1 niece & 1 nephew that keep me grounded. I have suffered all my life and just thought I was different and alone. When I started treatment for Depression in June of 2003 I was later diagnosed with Bi-Polar Disorder. I also suffer from Agoraphobia, Self-Injury, Obesity, Anxiety/Social Anxiety, Eating Disorder(Binging), Physical/Mental Abuse. Wow, I sound like a walking time bomb and I do feel that way sometimes.

    • Interests

      I am addicted to my TIVO and to this site. Since 2003 I have lost interest in many of the other things I liked to do - Go for a drive, Sing in the car, visit my niece & nephew, reading, exercising, visiting with friends & family. I would like to get some of those things back as a couple of those items were used to release all this pent up ugliness.
