About Me
I enjoy music, both listening to it and playing it. I play flute, piccolo, and a little piano and guitar and I also sing. I love classic rock music, some country, but not rap. I have BP2, but it doesn't have me. I spend a lot of time with my kids, they are my number 1 priority. And my oldest is off to college in a month.
Interests
Becoming certified to teach math and biology. I am in my last semester - 4 weeks, 2 liscensing exams and I am done.

I’m With You
My daughter is leaving for college also Aug.31st I'm going to miss her sooo much too...I know how you feel..
Hug
The fact that you sobered up and have remained sober for 30 years or so tells something. If you are willing to do something no matter how difficult with the help of your HP now you will find a way. As you know letting go is not easy but feasable. We grieve a (loss), feel the pain and then let go. A sister in sobriety, Claire

Support Groups
Close Alcoholism
I drank on an almost daily basis for the better part of 30 years. I couldn't imagine living another day with alcohol, but I couldn't get through a day without it. I wanted to die. It took me a long time to realize that other people weren't my problem, that I was, and that more spiritual growth is the answer almost every time.
Treatments
- 12 Step Program Working / Worked
- I used the 12 steps of AA. They helped me to find a higher power that keeps me sober on a daily basis.
- AA Meetings Working / Worked
- I joined AA 11/17/2004. With the help of the program and my HP I haven't found it necessary to take a drink since.
Close Bipolar Disorder
Diagnosed with Bipolar disorder in 1997. Things are up and down with this thing.
Treatments
Open Parenting Teenagers (12-18)
I have two daughters 14 & 17. Great kids, sometimes I wonder if I am too lenient.
Treatments
- Education (School) Working / Worked
- I do a lot of reading. The more you know the better informed you are
Open Hepatitis B
Diagnosed with Hep B in 1982.
Open Diets & Weight Maintenance
I have had a weight problem all of my life. I have probably gained and lost two or three people's worth of weight over my lifetime. I am tired of being overweight and feeling like crap.
Open Obesity
I have been battling with my weight all of my life. I am now more than 100 pounds overweight. I am ready to give up.....
Treatments
- Gastric Bypass Surgery Considering
- I have had 2 doctors suggest this in the past 2 years. I just don't know.
- Topamax Somewhat Helpful
- I took Topamax for a long time for BP2. I didn't loose a great deal of weight, but didn't gain either. It quit working for the BP..now I take something else.
- Weight Watchers Not Working
- I was on WW for over almost 3 months and followed it faithfully. I lost only about 8 pounds.
Open Empty Nests
