Run or Scatter?
Life experience has taught me, time and again, that everyone leaves eventually. I had to learn, really young, to be my own best friend and rely, as much as possible, on myself and no one else. I was thirty years old, long before ever turning thirty. It was a blessing and a curse. Early maturity … Continue reading Run or Scatter?
Stressors and Triggers
I intended to write something specific today, but my mood is bringing me deep down. That's when I know I need a break, a distraction, and perhaps a six month long vacation away from daily stressors and triggers. Alas, I settled for a stack of good books. When you're writing about certain topics, it is … Continue reading Stressors and Triggers
Holocaust Remembrance Day 2021
I noticed how few people posted about this today.

A lot can change in a … Continue reading Save Yourself

Almost four years ago, I was diagnosed with Complex PTSD. Thanks to several bad doctors and three lousy therapists post-diagnosis (My Massachusetts based experiences, only.), I struggle at times with how traumatized I … Continue reading PTSD Flashbacks
This Is Important
People, too often, consider America the promised land. The ultimate goal. I've noticed, over the past ten years, people who've always believed this moving to Canada or the United Kingdom, instead. I can't say I blame them. There's a lot of fucked up shit that happens here. Far more than most insulated citizens are aware … Continue reading This Is Important
Focus The Fuck On Yourself
This is the perfect message for all of us to take into 2021. Thank you to everyone who followed, subscribed, read, and listened this year. Thank you even more if you became a friend, because friendship is priceless and something I value highly. The next part of this journey will be highly enjoyable and entertaining. … Continue reading Focus The Fuck On Yourself
