- I am tired and stressed, and could use some support because I feel like I have run out of my own self-support reserves.I need brain surgery and that has me scared. My doctors have been talking about this procedure for years and my insurance is...
- I threw a huge birthday party for my daughter today (the biggest one I've ever thrown) and I am EXHAUSTED. In the last week I have been getting increasingly less sleep and my body was tremoring so hard today that I couldn't eat (because it was...

- My OT question for today: what is your favorite/best quality about yourself? The only rule: it can't be physical. :)
- I made a big mistake this evening because I am tired, and now I'm struggling to ask for help to fix it.I was supposed to have two grad-school make-up final exams tomorrow (technically one and a half; I completed one portion already of the two) and I...
- We talk a lot on this board about the bad and negative things we have gone through, see, and respond to. A few people have posted OT questions and I think that's a great idea! In the theme of that (and to hopefully open a positive dialogue with...
- Hey everybody. This is interestingly on-topic and off topic at the same time: I know I threw an insanely large volume of stress and anxiety at you in the wee hours of yesterday morning, and I appreciate all of your love and support.I'd been...
- I am so sick and tired of being sick and tired.At the end of last year I was sent to an ear-nose-throat doctor to evaluate whether I would benefit from having my tonsils removed. They used a local anesthetic and scoped down my throat to look at my...
