    I’m surprised too when I learn people like me, on the forum or IRL. That’s why it’s important you just keep being you. We have an impaired...

I've always thought my mother has, at the very least, disordered eating habits. Since I was a teenager she's had protein shakes for breakfast and dinner and eats normal sized lunches (think about the size you'd get ordering a meal at a restaurant). She's always been terrified of being overweight...

Bought myself new sleep pants yesterday cause mine are really old. Loving the new ones. Got my meals planned for today and I even bought some new microwave-safe storage dishes to help myself out with it so I can take leftovers to work. I have ramen and i'm gonna buy healthy food at work today...

Well once again I've decided to try to eat healthier. I've made up a grocery list of stuff to buy when I get off work. Brown rice. Frozen vegetables. I've done some browsing and found a brand that looks good that i'd like to try. They have bags of pre-cut vegetables that the bag says to just...

I've noticed some of you have results of an assessment at the bottom of your blogs. How do I access the assessment so I can take it myself?

Trying to make some good habits. Trying to make my bed and open my curtains every morning. Took care of the trash and recycling this morning and lit up my candles now that I can actually see them, too. Gonna brush my teeth and make my lunch for work here in a few. Moving my daily allergy...
I though it about time to explain this. First of all, no, I am not actually leaving AC. Let me get that out of the way. This has been a wonderful place to hang out over the past four and a half years, and it has helped me in so many ways, both from getting feedback from my compatriots, and...

Got like 2-3 hours of sleep last night but I had a good morning nonetheless. Ate a filling breakfast of grilled cheese and tomato soup with some soda. Work wont let me have soda just water so gotta get my caffeine in before work now. Actually made my bed and brushed my hair (again) and teeth...

Been so depressed lately. Got myself in a bit of a bind really. Can't drive. Mom lied to me for years saying what was actually my photo learners permit was a real drivers license. I just feel so trapped here. If I could just learn to drive and get my license I could move out. I thought dad was...

Everyday Life
I am a Protestant Christian, a believer in reformed theology (most commonly called Calvinism), a pastor and theologian. Keep in mind that my responses are always going to be from this perspective. A few years back, a JW elder making his rounds in the area stopped by my home to try to convert my...

Gonna buy a small, cheap scale after work today. Idk how much I weigh but I've gone from size 4 to 6 and can't fit the shorts I bought this summer anymore so I really wanna know. Internet says taking height into account that my body weight should be at minimum 92-94lbs cause i'm just under 5ft...

Haven't been on here as much. No particular reason why, really. I've just been into Netflix and video games and busy with work. I tried grilled cheese with tomato soup yesterday and it was really good. My mom always made it with mac n cheese from a box as a kid and she's not big on soup so I've...

Rowling has said that werewolves are her metaphors for HIV-positive people. They are shunned and the condition can be transferred to someone else and that's pretty much it, because HIV-positive people don't turn into monsters in the moonlight, and Rowling really doesn't seem to be trying to...

My grandpas on both sides of the family had done genealogy research before they died, and learned much about our past. Some of this has been passed down to me. On my moms dads side, it goes all the way back to Erik the Red, the notorious Viking. Between him and his son Lief Erikson (or Lief the...
So I love writing and want to do more of it. There is so much to consider though. I don't think I will stick with only one theme, but rather I may bounce from topic to topic. Here are some ideas I've been thinking of: My background, such as challenges faced and being neglected / abused as a...

I've kept my life a secret. I've kept my inner self and real thoughts a secret all my life. (I do not recommend this for optimal mental health!). What I am, who I am, my daily and life struggles have never been validated. Maybe getting an official diagnosis when i was 39 was my first...

I made up the course code in the subject heading as a means to express how learning about me, from my mother's perspective, is much easier than what she is making it out to be. And it made me think of life as the School of Hard Knocks. On Friday, I was called to the service room and someone...

Lately, I've been revisiting some of the events of my life and seeing them in a new light. I am left feeling ashamed and angry, that I innocently let people walk all over me, disrespect me, devalue me and laugh at me. It is almost as if I am determined to live the next 40 something years in...

All those images of voiceless screams that no one hears is a recurring dream I've had since I was about 4 yo. These dreams have been a menacing presence that I never understood. Since my diagnosis, it has become crystal clear. It is symbolic of my everyday existence. In my head, or my soul, is...

Writing is the most effective means for me to communicate. My brain zooms past at a pace that no part of my body can possibly keep up with. I have absolutely no creative talent whatsoever, so I end up quite frustrated at how I can make myself communicable. I so despetately want to connect with...
