6 years ago today, i had to tell the Drs to pull lifesupport on my husband. I was only 28 years old. At 26 years old i had become his full time caregiver. I held him as he took his last breaths and slowly slipped away. I am not dealing well at all. Just text my sponsor that i need an AA meeting and she said shell pick me up at 930. My parents made it back last night safe and sound. I am not mentally well today :( And the pain does not help.

    I'm alive, I'm sleeping like a rock, and for some reason I wanted cherry juice so that seems to be helping. (??? Weirdo that I am.)***Infamous therapies over history:1. The Attic. The madwoman in the attic is a motif in literature going waaaaaay back: the nutty female relative is locked in the attic. (See: Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte for a grotesquely racist version of it, and Charlotte Perkins...
