You've seen the title of this piece, so let me start by saying this question has been asked of me by my doctor, and it's a long story. Overall, my best response was, "Someone who isn't an asshole. Someone who isn't going to waste my time, and someone whose office I will not leave more … Continue reading What Are You Looking For In A Therapist?

Where Did This Month Go?
I blinked and it is January 31st. Another mindfuck. I've had a lot to say, a lot to think about, and a lot I didn't write this month. I'd start to say something and it would irk me, so I'd draft it and move on. In the meantime, I did manage to read over sixty … Continue reading Where Did This Month Go?
Day One
My vibe for this year is so different. I think part of it has to do with already knowing the direction I'm heading in, and knowing I can rock it. I only left a little, "up in the air". The rest is falling into place, as it's supposed to, because I did a lot of … Continue reading Day One
To Many More
I've been here for a little over six years (Eight years in total with WordPress), and I am proud of how this site has grown. I appreciate all the new readership that has come on board over the past few months, and in general. I wish I could hug all of you, and I'm not … Continue reading To Many More
Pre-Thanksgiving Jitters
Hello, everyone. It's been a minute, and the reality is, I've been sick for over a month. 😦 I haven't had any real energy, and I've struggled with not getting enough sleep and then getting too much sleep, if too much sleep is actually a real thing. <Sigh> According to my body, it isn't. Fighting … Continue reading Pre-Thanksgiving Jitters
Friday the 13th
I'm not overly superstitious, but today was a bit much for me. I woke up with an arm injury (I am typing with my left hand. Perhaps it's a good thing I trained myself to use it in all situations, in case I ever had a stroke.) that is painful. I'm not sure how it … Continue reading Friday the 13th
Launch Day
Notice anything different today? If not, you will. Change is coming in big ways, and it started this morning when I made, "Poison In Lethal Doses" a true website. This has been in the works for a while, but I wanted to launch the site on my birthday as a constant reminder of my writing … Continue reading Launch Day
Current Mood > Assumptions
I keep asking myself when a day won't feel, "rough", "tough", "heartbreaking", "emotionally taxing", "lonely", or "deeply upsetting". The fact of the matter is, as someone who rarely cries, I've been an emotional tornado. I've cried so much over the past few days, and that only angers me. In the past week I've nearly hyperventilated … Continue reading Current Mood > Assumptions
Not Quite
I'm still not doing too great post-treatment. I'm either sleeping too little or too much, and the amount of pain I am in may last another 7-10 days. The plus side of this is that I was approved to start taking Nurtec. I'll figure this out as I go, but thus far, I haven't heard … Continue reading Not Quite
Ignoring The Crossroads
When I decided to take "Poison In Lethal Doses" from a printed, exclusive, personally publicized format to an online, public, still personally publicized, but zero profit format, I opened it up in a way I wasn't quite expecting. I won't lie; having experience helped. Having confidence helped even more. In no way was I "just … Continue reading Ignoring The Crossroads
