I am a 51 yr old female.  I am a survivor of incest/sexual abuse.  I was initially diagnosed with depression with psychosis.  I did not remember the abuse until my 30's when I started to have flashbacks.  I struggle with self injury impluses. I am getting divorced.  I am childless and do not have any family where I live.  My best friend is my dog. I think it is best that I have geographic space between me and my family.  But I am also very lonely.   I have been in and out of therapy....currently out. 

I love to read, listen to music and volunteer with the Humane Society.  I meditate and am looking into yoga for the old and creaky.  I kind of wandered into this site and I'm not sure what to expect here.

Popeye was my hero when I was a kid.  I still love him....I yam what I yam.
