About Me
Right now I work in a call center for a retail corporation. I live here in Virginia with my partner of 4 years, away from any and all family. I went to college here and graduated, and stayed because I love the area. I am normally a very creative and artsy person who loves to be outside. I am getting better at seeing myself as a strong woman.
Interests
Running, reading, being outdoors in general. Playing frisbee, hiking, camping, and discovering new music.

Close Physical & Emotional Abuse
My partner and I have been together almost 4 years, and the emotional abuse began about 2 years ago and has gotten progressively worse, especially in the last couple of months since she has taken on a new managerial position at work and is very stressed out. I have a hard time believing that all the abuse is not my fault because in the beginning of our relationship and several other times I cheated on her. I grew up in an Alcoholic family and am in Alanon.
Treatments
- Art Working / Worked
- I write. Most everyday. It helps to look back and see how much I've grown and what has been happening to me.
- Group Therapy Working / Worked
- Because of my past cheating, my partner is very controlling of me being home. Anytime I try to go to more than one meeting a week she freaks out. The group is great and I feel so unconditionally loved when I go, something I don't get from home, and I wish I could go more often.
- Talking Working / Worked
- I talk to my higher power, whom I choose to call God. Even if I don't get responses, it helps to turn it over or at least use my voice.

Open HPV
My pap smear came back abnormal from my last Dr's visit in early April. I just had my Colposcopy today. I tested positive for High Risk HPV. We'll see what happens...
Treatments
- Colposcopy Working / Worked
- It was a little more uncomfortable than a regular pap smear mostly because it took longer and i did have some cramping during and afterwards.
- LEEP Too Soon to Tell
- I am scheduled for a LEEP on June 12th. I'm nervous because i hate needles, but my girlfriend will be coming with me.
