About Me
I have had a lot of problems with anxiety disorders all throughout my life..In 2006 I was diagnosed with major deprssion..I am gradually finding my way back to the light, with thanks to a great medication, an excellent physchologist and the ongoing support of my wonderful family and gorgeous friends that I have made through DS...I am seperated with three beautiful adult children from my first marriage. I also have a beautiful 6 year old daughter from my second marriage..She has had a lot of challenges and problems with her physical health..She is a "joy" to everyone she meets.. If anyone has Myspace accounts, my URL is.. http://www.myspace.com/watermaiden45
Interests
I love walking my dog.. I also love listening to all kinds of music..from ac/dc to Elvis..I love working with beads and making "suncatchers"..I have also recently learnt how to make "dreamcatchers"... I enjoy reading "autobiographies". I love watching a good "thriller". I also used to write poetry in my younger years...figure it may be a good thing to start writing again.. My four beautiful children are my "greatest joy".

I’m With You
hey bath i could go on and on with the passive aggressive stuff now that i know the red flags - but poor self esteem stopped me from listening to them in the beginning - best way to discuss would be to chat - either on here if you see me on line or you can add me to cipper62@hotmail.com ... ps hope the weather in adelaide isnt too cold freezing up here in brisbane cheers btw my name is carolyn .... and if you read any posts this is a relationship after my initial divorce - waited 3 yrs almost 4 before i began dating ... my divorce was normal and easy compared to this selfish idiot i went out with ... cheers for now
