    Give KaliMari a hug

    • Hug

      From gdslik September 16

      I was going thru my friends list and read your entry from April. I'm sorry to hear that the police didn't take you seriously, but proud of you for going anyway. It takes a strong woman to stand up for herself and that's what's most important here! You know what happened, don't let them make you doubt yourself!!! I hope the doctor's figure out what went wrong with the surgery... have you gone to someone else to see if you can get another opinion on what went wrong? Well, good luck with the schooling and I'll look for you later to see if you've logged back on. HUGS! Gwen

      Hey :) It sounds like you have been though a lot for the past couple of years, you sound like a very strong person for dealing with it all. I too am trying to find myself, I kinda like to think of it as a journey, lol. Hope things are well over there for you :)

    • Close Depression
      Type: Clinical (Major) Depression

      I'm not sure if it's clinical since I've not had sucidal thoughts but I've been sad for over 2 years. In the last 2.5 years I have lost my sister, lost my money, faced racism in ways never before and was date raped... Been struggling to find me since this all began...

      Treatments

      Psychotherapy Working / Worked
      Since my sister passed 2 years ago I have found myself back in the chair... Some days it hurts but even on those days it seems to help in the long run. I think.
    • Close Obesity

      I have been overweight for as long as I remember... I lost 55 lbs on WW. Suffered a death in the family went to gradschoool and gained half back and now I'm trying to recommit to the journey...

      Treatments

      Avoid Certain Foods / Chemicals Working / Worked

      Physical Exercise Too Soon to Tell
      I love walking, I love Yoga but I have so many physical injuries that I have not be able to be but so consistant.
    • Open Eczema

      I was diagnosed with Eczema when I was HS (over 12 years ago). I have broken out every where conceivable. One dr gave up on me. One hasn't but we both sorta have agreed to treat the sympton and not cure the problem at this point... I'm tired of itching. My worse season is actually Summer which is opposite most sufferers.

      Treatments

      Hydrocortisone Working / Worked
      Triamcinolome (spelling?) is the only thing i respond to medically but it's definitely affected by blood work by giving me high white blood cell counts
      Dietary Modification Somewhat Helpful
      I try to avoid high dosages of Eggs, Wheat and Dairy. I eat them all but definitely limit my egg
    • Open Bereavement

      two years ago I lost my only sister. Right behind that I started school and got so busy that I only recently started grieving the loss...

      Treatments

      Crying Somewhat Helpful
      Psychotherapy Somewhat Helpful
    • Open Sexual Abuse

      Right before my last b'day July 07 I was date raped. I wasn't drugged, wasn't attacked, I was just pressured and coerced into saying yes. At that moment I knew I said yes or I wasn't going home. I was in denial for 4 months. Knew for 4 month and just started feeling it for just over 2 months... I don't know how to deal with it...
