Let's stop calling people "toxic"
Calling people "toxic" is really a form of bullying. "Toxic"is a meaningless term. In fact, it's a magical thinking (delusional) to say a person can "suck energy" out of other people. No one truly has that power! Calling a person "toxic" is just another way of saying, "We do not like you." Stop...

Never too late: they were wrong all along
I was called socially awkward, clumsy, or just plain stupid. I couldn't hold down a waitress job but was a brilliant student. I was bullied and made to feel like a failure at life. This was never true, and the answer was NOT a psych disorder as was the assumption for so many years. Listen here as…

Psychiatrist on Maternity Leave
This is a description of one of the most hilarious events in the history of my relationship with my ex-shrink, but I can only say that in hindsight. Listen up, and I think you will see why. The doctor is in! But hey, buyer beware, eh?

Good evening! This is an audio clip that once was a video, but since the picture and sound didn't seem to line up well, I decided to post the audio only. I made this a month ago. I viewed it tonight and was delighted at how often I smiled and laughed. A year ago, I certainly wasn't smiling! At…

Medical Care and the Undeserving Poor
Are you on both Medicare AND Medicaid? If so, you may find yourself in the same rut I'm in. We know the system is stacked against folks like us who are considered "permanently disabled." Are we really supposed to accept what society is telling us, that we're nothing but throwaways? I've decided…
