About Me

For now, here's a brief list of my war story experiences:
​

• Eye punctured and five surgeries at age five

• Manipulative domineering father, physically abusive

• Submissive but loving mother

• Catholic indoctrination

• Being told telepathy is a mental illness and put on medication for over 20 years

• Depression

• Alcoholism

• Suicide attempts

• Dissociative disorder with Narcissistic tendencies

• Violent tendencies, fight with dad, jail time

• Inability to work, disability, low-income housing

• Many mental health hospitalizations

• I am currently grieving the loss of my mother who was the closest person to me

• Possible PTSD

 

So, I think I have some understanding of the depth of existential sadness and anger.

​

And I know that even if you think you have it made, life guarantees cycles of suffering.  Sometimes stability and boredom are the most maddening of all.

​

At least we have each other for some empathetic company, at least at times. 

 

You're not alone.
