ABOUT ME:

I am a kind person, but I don't take any bull from anyone, no matter what their status in society. I love freely and deeply. I achieved a great deal until symptoms of schizoaffective disorder, PTSD from severe childhood abuse, anxiety and depression took hold of me. I am now on disabiity. Then the physical problems began to manifest. I'm dealing with so much to do with my health it seems I have time for nothing else. I don't feel much like doing anything anyway. I'm not depressed, at least not at a level that needs treatment other than what I'm already receiving. I was an RN and had a natural empathy for sick people and now that I'm on the other side, I sure wish more people would demonstrate the same level of empathy to me that I always have toward others. (Sounds like i feel sorry for myself...maybe I do). My husband is great, however. He expects nothing from me but to love him...and I do. He has helped me when I couldn't get out of bed, couldn't bathe or dress myself without severe pain. He gets upset when I push myself (used to be a perfectionist when I was capable). Basically, a good person in a bad way.
