Greetings and salutations!!! So, I was asked to write about my pain-my physical pain, and how it affects me. From when it first started until now. So, here it is, for my readers' perusal. It may seem like I'm talking about my disease..but my disease is my pain. It was very insidious at first, to... Continue Reading →
Salad Dressing–Olive oil and Vinegar (metaphorically speaking).
Greetings and salutations!!! I hope everyone is enjoying their summer. Obviously with me, it's been a summer and spring of wrenching emotions, etc, but I'm much better for it, and that's a good thing. No tales from the couch for the last session. As riveting as they must be to read, (LOL), the last session... Continue Reading →
Tales From The Couch: Part 10–Recurring Dreams
Greetings and salutations!!! Lately I've been having these recurring dreams. They all involve me trying to get into some kind of car, or the driver not being able to take me to where I need to go.

Tales From the Couch: Part 7
Greetings and salutations! Another difficult session with a lot of uncomfortable truths and theories that I need to confront and dive into. It's hard to know where to begin, so I'll choose a spot and let it flow organically from there. Fear. I think that's a huge thing with me. Fear of getting hurt, fear... Continue Reading →
It’s Over. AGAIN.
Greetings and salutations!! I'm such a hot mess of contradictions today and was the same yesterday.

So, if you've read through my blog, you will be... Continue Reading →
Tales From the Couch: Part 4
Greetings and salutations! This was an emotional session. We talked about some work stuff, which alas, I won't go into here for various reasons. But suffice to say, it wasn't anything I particularly needed to happen with all the other crap going on in my life. I was asked to write a letter to Special... Continue Reading →
Tales From The Couch: Part 3
Hey y'all. Emotionally tired today, and physically too. I wouldn't say it was a rough session, but it was a challenging one where I had to admit some hard truths to myself and accept them about others. So, first lesson. Sometimes people don't get closure. It's nice to have, but there's no guarantee that it'll... Continue Reading →
Tales From the Couch: Part 2
Greetings and salutations! I had another good session today. It's amazing how a different perspective can provide so much clarity and insight into what's going wrong and what's going right.

Lessons from the couch
So I went to see a professional to deal with the emotional turmoil that I've been going through, and to get some clarity about the stuff I've been going through. I learned that it's ok to have needs and to get them filled and not to feel guilty about that. In my own way I... Continue Reading →
I am Frankenstein’s Monster
Some days are harder than others, especially in terms of self image. Every now and then, I list the qualities and characteristics that I can bring to a relationship, and curse the fact that it is wrapped up in such an unattractive package. “There is love in me the likes of which you've never seen....
