    About Me

    I have had a few painful life lessons in the past two years. Those experiences have helped me understand my limits as a person. Because I recognize and understand how I have grown spiritually and intellectually, I accept those lessons and plan to use their outcomes to move forward. The concept of boundaries stands out as I write this description. After being hurt and taken for granted, I understand that the concept of fairness is only what one can get away with. People think they can treat you any kind of way and it should be fair because YOU did something wrong. It just goes to show that no matter what you do for some people, it is NEVER good enough. I am learning how to set boundaries in my life so that I do not have to be the emotional "Welcome" mat (for people to walk over) in friendships and love relationships. Lastly, I have learned that other people have deep-rooted issues and they try to inflict their insecurities, that result in ill behavior, on you so THEY can justify what they have done. No more, I don't think so...not at my expense! With that in mind, I continue to live with a clear conscience and continue to work on myself.

    • Open Bipolar Disorder

      I have joined the community because I wish to understand the diagnosis. My husband's inconsistent behavior along with comments made by his mother and statements he has made about being depressed have led me to research the topic. I am reflecting upon his actions that have led up to the repeated negative patterns in his life and the results of it. I believe there is a family secret. The details of it have not been shared with me.

      Feels good but does not stop pain/soreness.

      A pain medication in the Ibruprofen family. Knocks me out, rough on the stomach, reduces throbbing/burning sensation, does not relieve extreme soreness
