I have yet to research it in a rational state of mind, but I do believe it is safe to say that I was born into the Post WWII collapse of Small Town America and that the parade of small towns across...

The recent downturn in the FIL's health is feeling like a pretty hefty blow to the family members who are part of my everyday life. I don't feel any functional bonds with any of my in-laws, so it is...

I do not know but I do believe the triggering to female perpetrated trauma is just a hiccough in the Complex Processing. I do believe gender bashing always triggers me to gender-specific trauma....

It has been suggested that my husband and I need to step in and take over the situation in my Father-in-law's handling of my Mother-in-law's care, beginning with an investigation of exploitation on...

Good sleep last night. Normal waking this morning. Those hyper-alert wake-ups are a rough start to a day."Stay out of my therapy" is the graffiti scribbled on the wall I keep between my husband's...

So far, so good. Hubby is off getting his new Queen Bees. Literally. Two of them. He is re-working his bee hives this weekend. I was already seizing my garden therapy before he left. His bee keeping...

Marriage often makes it hard to know what to focus on. I try not to guess what is going on in my beloved's head, especially when I am navigating the manic edges of own issues. The mania makes me...

This, of course, would be the phase which finds me with a parade of med peddlers on my tail, each with the correct-est list on the block. My manic phases are as subtle as a peacock in heat. I often...
