Thanks so much. I am just in the beginning of breaking away. I have so many doubts and fears. At times it is paralyzing. It is good to hear that there is a light at the end of the tunnel.

Big hugs back too! :)

Thank you for saying what I didn't have the courage to say. I was trying all day not to yell at her.

Close Physical & Emotional Abuse
wow. I didnt want to talk too much about it. I was in an abusive relationship that I got out of 11 years ago. Three sons. It took a long time to heal up and I find I still have those raw nerves, lol. I find it really painful when I see others in abisive situations and it is like a relapse cue when I do see it. leaves me raw.
Treatments
- Abuse Counseling Working / Worked
- talking about it and listening to others has proven to be very helpful.
Close Diabetes Type 2
Hi. I am 'in the process' of being diagnosed with diabetes 2. At work a few weeks ago a coworker was being shown how to test blood sugar and mine turned out to be 525. since then I have taken it several times. My fasting is about 280 and the norm seems to be about 380. My doctor had my blood drawn and got the results thursdays but hasnt had time to talk to me personally and wont let the nurses give me the results. I am feeling scared, confused and kind of lost. I am a single Mom, 46.
Open Caregivers
Hi. I was a caregiver to my mother, grandparents who died a few years ago after 8 years of terminal illness. I am now a professional caregiver and find I am unable to detach. I am becoming very emotionally involved with the families of the people I assist, several of whom are dying.
