    About Me

    I am an only child to a mother who was obese. She died 10 years ago. I wish I knew then what I knew now. I am here as a compassionate ear for those who just want to chat or need a friend and pen pal.

    • Close Anxiety

      I've been sick on and off for a year and have been studying up on the topic of depression in a desperate need fix myself. It is a slow uphill climb, but you can't give up. Wow. I have developed agoraphobia and am constantly nervous and shaky. My boyfriend snuck up behind me and gave me a kiss and I almost jumped out of my skin. I am not all the way back, but I am working on it every day by setting tiny goals, even if that just means going for a walk around the block. I want to live.

      Treatments

      If I could make myself do this every day, It might help.
      Klonopin Working / Worked

      Paxil Working / Worked
      I have been on this stuff so long that if I miss it for more than one dose, I am in trouble.
      Positive Thinking Working / Worked
      eh....well you know how that goes.
