Hi,
I am new here and looking forward to meeting everyone. A very brief bio - I am female, separated and nearly divorced (yah!). I have a beautiful cat, 2 grown sons and a new outlook.
My official diagnosis is PTSD. Major Depression also plays a bit part in my life. (lol) For years I didn't know what was wrong with me. The depression just snuck up and bit me hard one day and it's been a struggle taming that beast. I do think I have it (partially) licked now.
Now the PTSD is a whole different matter and one told in small bite size pieces. It wouldn't do to have any of you dropping from fright and I just hate a mess.
Did I mention I also have Fibromyalgia. Gawd, that's a real pain in the *bleeps out*.
In any case, I like people and enjoy those who can laugh, in spite of the obstacles. After all, who would talk to me if I were complaining 99% of the time? My 98% isn't working so well either, so I might try to improve those stats. (heh)
I enjoy writing and once fashioned myself as a journalist, but things got in the way and I haven't yet realized that dream. Currently I am trying to kick start (read - motivate myself) to start writing a book. I have attempted this feat for more years than I care to mention. Perhaps all I need to do is grow up and figure out what I want to do for a living.
Did I mention I am 55?
