Would it make you feel better if I told you about some of my craziest moments? About being on a med that disconnected my head from my body and resulted in me coming too close to being run down by a streetcar? I tried to explain the feeling to the doctor. The one who pronounced [...]

What I wish I could say… If you’re going to turn out to be an asshole, better to let me know sooner than later. Trust me. Want to go to my best friend’s wedding with me? What do you see in me? Want to meet my kid?

These days he shows up to sit and mope. Which is why we did not date for long at all. I do not need anyone else that needs taking care of. Truth be told, I met him months before I physically departed from the house I shared with the Former Mister. Late May, to be [...]

I don’t know how I’m supposed to do this. I’m not sure if I’m healed. That’s the word he used tonight. Healed. I thought I was healed. I had moments when I thought it would be alright and I could let myself be open to the possibilities. A man came along and he hurt me. [...]
Mental Lock-down

The boss has given me a form to have my doctor complete in regards to the sick leave request. To say that it is intrusive in an understatement. It asks for diagnosis and treatment and other such stuff that I keep close to my chest for good reason. I know I’m fucked up in the [...]

It was good. He was here and there was coffee drinking and sitting on the couch. Which led to snuggling. Which led to nakedness in bed. There’s not been sex. There has been talk about taking it slow. Today while chatting he made reference to how that may result in eons of moons and tides [...]

The second date went well. It took place at my house because the wee one is here. He momentarily forgot and was disappointed that he wasn’t able to spend the night. So, I might as well blather out what’s going on in my head to get it out of the way and to – hopefully [...]

Here’s the Plan

I’m taking a sick leave. Of sorts. I hate thinking of myself as ‘sick’. Sick sounds weak and helpless and taken to my bed. I am far from that stage. My health – specifically mental health – has been on the back burner for far too many years. Actually, back burner doesn’t describe it. It’s [...]
