I sent this out to the people on my friends list and a couple of people suggested I post it here as many people can identify.
I received a flyer in the mail today that asked "Are you at risk for Endometrial Cancer"? At first glance I read it as Emotional Cancer. That is when I realized I have Emotional Cancer. I know that it is not literally cancer but it might as well be because it is killing me ever so slowly.
My emotions eat away at my sense of worth, being and health. They do not respond well to treatment as they have a strong nuclear center. Those emotions are embedded deep within and cause extreme pain.
When I am in my most extreme emotional pain as I am right now is when death becomes my best friend. He always has time for me. He brings me comfort. He never rejects or betrays me. He listens to my rants and most importantly he promises to take away all my pain if I would just let him.
The death of my mother has brought on an intensity of emotion I didn't realize would happen. As a matter of fact, I have always thought when she died so would all the anger and hurt that I carry because of her. Boy was I wrong.
My therapist is well aware of how I am feeling and I am not suicidal just hurting.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
