Most importantly, I am surrounded by people who know how to pick me up if I am down, whom I can lean on when I need to and I’m learning to ask for help (sometimes. This is a work in progress). I’ve got a great “modern family”, who alternately make me laugh and make me ...
It was full on for a few days, with all the fun stuff you'd expect - vomiting, stomach ache. Most of the severe symptoms settled down but, even several weeks afterwards, I felt constantly tired and nauseous.I couldn't understand it and went to my GP a few times, but he said it ...
Of course, this is just my interpretation; I could be totally wrong. But whatever the movie's real gist is, you can't deny the magnificent job that Fellini did directing. Clearly "La strada" was just around the corner. I should say that this one isn't particularly bizarre in the vein...
It’s not always easy, and sometimes that “kind, thorough and enthusiastic” response is short and sweet because I don’t trust myself to go much further without getting snarky. I’m hardly saying you need to be a 24/7 walking patron of organic education. But I am saying that if I ...

He’s been there on the mornings I’m so sore I can’t get out of bed, when I’m so nauseous I can’t eat, when my heart rate is going haywire and I can’t stand, when the depression of living in constant pain becomes unbearable. I wouldn’t have gotten a diagnosis without ...
It is messy, feet are stepped on constantly, but we make it through. And our flow improves with each day we practice. I remember first reaching out to this other part of myself in my recovery, some time a few years ago. I was having awful, periodic tinnitus in the left side of my...
i've had burning sensations and it feels weird, my throat also hurts a little and i feel a burning there as well. i'm so scared i'm pregnant, and i don't know what to think, it's all i constantly think about and i'm tired of thinking about it and worrying myself to death. ...
