I so miss our converstaions, and your wonderful book recommendations. I have read a new of Siclair Lewis' books - after your recommendation of one of his books. I hope your job is going well. Joe and I leave, this afternoon - to go to my client's office in Dayton OH. My company hired him as my transportation - so I don't have to deal with flying - when the drive is less than 3 hours. Joe is tickled to be making money AND to have his hotel and meals paid for. I just want it over with - even though it is only for 1 day (Fri) that we are in the client's office - I just cringe at wearing nylons for even a day!! Think of you often and I hope you are well. Drop me a line (when you do have the time) to let me know what has been going on with you. Love, Hugs and Best Wishes to a great woman: Julie

Support Groups
Close Miscarriage
I've had 4 miscarriages over the course of the last 5 years, which has been very emotionally draining. Husband and I took a year and 1/2 break and are now thinking about trying for a baby again soon.
Treatments
- D&C Working / Worked
- I had to have a D&C with my first loss and I count this as one of the worst life experiences I've had.
- DailyStrength Working / Worked
- It's been helpful to finally talk openly about this issue.
Close Diets & Weight Maintenance
About a year ago, give or take I decided to get serious about losing weight. I'm 5,3 and was nearly 200 pounds. I am now down to 145. My goal is 120-125.
Treatments
- Eating Healthier Foods Working / Worked
- One thing I did was eliminate fast food from my diet completely for awhile. I was so surprised at how much junk I was eating until I stopped.
Open Insomnia
I've struggled with insomnia since my mid 20's. It's nearly impossible for me to get to sleep without help and sometimes I can't even then. I have recently been placed on Ambien, as the over-the-counter meds have stopped being effective.
Treatments
Open Physical & Emotional Abuse
I am a proud survivor. From age 17-22 I was in a relationship that was a domestic violence situation. I hope to give support and talk about my issues that I still have all these years later.
Treatments
- Leave Working / Worked
- One day I had enough and left for good. I have had no further contact with my abuser.
Open Rape
I was in the sexual abuse community but then found this group which seems more fitting to my situation. I was raped when I was 14 by a stranger when I was on my way home from a friend's place. I also endured sexual assault from my ex when I was in the domestic violence situation.
Treatments
- Pataday Working / Worked
- I've never been to any kind of formal counseling, and don't wish to start now. Sometimes I do feel the need to communicate about it, which is why I joined this group.
Open Shyness
I'm not too shy online, but I have much trouble with meeting and talking to people in regular life. I get nervous, worry they hate me and feel overall uncomfortable. I want to be just a little more outgoing.
Treatments
- Self-help Considering
- I'm thinking I might read some books on the subject.
Open Bereavement
Type: Loss of a ParentMy Mother passed when I was 17. I will tell more of that story as I feel able but sometimes I just can't go into it.
Treatments
- Time Working / Worked
- That's the only thing that has truly helped me heal.
Open Depression
Type: Seasonal Affective DisorderI become intensely depressed during the winter. That cold just gets down into my bones and I don't care about anything, even the Holidays seem stupid. I did much better when I lived in the more temperate climates of CA and WA state.
Treatments
- Positive Thinking Somewhat Helpful
- I try.
