Too Critical!

Prison, Welcome To My Life
No, I am not in a prison with bars or stripes on my clothes. Somehow though I truly feel it wouldn’t be any worse. Every day is scheduled around my medications. They dictate my life from morning to sunset. I have a feeling I am not the only one who feels this way. So, it…

Control
Before I was in treatment, before the medications, I would find myself angry because things always seemed to be going against me. Things that there was just no way for me to control.

Echoes In My Mind
I have mentioned before that my mind races, seldom shuts down, when it does it is medication that causes it to. Sometimes my problem stems from too much down time, nightime is extremely bad. It is when echoes from the past seem to bounce around in my brain. I seem to remember events that even…

News Burnout!
I have reached a crossroad, news burnout. I usually follow the news for events that I can write commentary through the eyes of Biblical Prophecy. I am burned out from hearing the same story over and over again, both in Canada and the United States.

Just Add Water
We all know the adage “you don’t miss the water till the well runs dry”. It is amazing how we take for granted fresh water. We go to our sink turn the tap and out comes water.

In Case Of Emergency!
About fourteen years ago I was a total wreck, suffering with extreme back pain. It controlled everything I did. My doctor at that time had me on Oxycontin it’s strongest dose allowed/recommended. That turned into a nightmare for me and my best friend.

Adrenaline!

Mole Hills, Mountains
When I was young sometimes we would go crying to our mother and her favorite statement when she believed we were making too much of a situation ‘your making a mountain out of a mole hill”. Ninety-nine percent of the time she was right. Sometimes even now I have to be careful not to…

Pamper Yourself!
Sometimes I find myself consumed with my problems that I tend to forget that there is more to life than what ails me. It takes all of my mental strength to push my problems to the back burner and just pamper myself. My favorite thing is Cookies & Cream Ice Cream.
