A bit of self therapy I suppose or just a good read

When you live with chronic illness; ms; fibro; trigeminal neuralgia; hashimotos; lupus; als; hippocampal sclerosis; cancer...(to name a few) etc., just remember this when you need to release or talk about it:
You're not complaining. don't degrade yourself like that. you're letting it out so that you can delegate some of the burden you carry in your heart and mind. you want some one to understand; but most of all you're trying to accept it yourself. you'll get there. hugs 
Your house is allowed to be a mess. You're allowed to vent. You're allowed to talk about it. You're allowed to have sick day. To take a break. Allowed to rest. Relax. You are allowed to say no. Cancel plans last minute.You are allowed to set boundaries. You're allowed to live within your limitations. You are allowed to test your boundaries when you are up to it. 
BUT! Most of all.... YOU HAVE A LIFE. Every second you draw breath. Every step you take. Every moment you have. LIVE IT. Make it your own. Unburden yourself. Allow yourself to be sick. Allow yourself to OWN your condition(s). Don't let it own you. Make it your pawn. Stop saying sorry. Surround yourself with people who get it. With LOVE, DETERMINATION, HAPPINESS, POSITIVITY and an outpouring of OPTIMISM. No mater how bad it gets. Be the inspirations in others that you want others to be to you.
So I would like to call today. This day:
Free Expression Wednesday.
Hopefully the admins will let this post stick around and every other Wednesday we'll have a day where in the comments you can vent whatever you need to say. All the nitty gritty. Any issue, any problem any wording.....Venting it out helps unburden us sometimes and sometimes we need to do so without anyone getting upset. F>E>W will be a time of putting our feelings out there in a safe environment with no animosity and no hard feelings. Just Optimism and a show they even with how bad we feel that we're speaking how we feel; getting it out; finding resolution and hearing each other. Lets become a stronger community with stronger interaction, rapport and connection.
So today comment 10 things you really need to get off your chest(symptoms; how you cope; what you're having trouble with getting used to or living with; how do you distress etc). How they make you feel. and how we can help you work through it and cope better. GO!

My little experience that damaged my life of purity

I'd witnessed major contamination within the company ( south Australia's largest landfill on 22 hundred acres.) I worked for and lived on work site location.   10 years of being a highly respected dedicated, honest HARD worker.   Down the drain because we knew too much and a large corporation bought into the once family owned business.  We were now a threat. 5 people in total were slowly, brutally traumatised, bullied, harassed, tortured and forced to either resign or be laid off as redundant position.  One person in particular is deceased now, coronary report, unknown cause of death. ( this generally means too much stress and no spirit or will to keep living). I copped most of it as I was the manager in most areas of daily operations. My job description was broad. Titled administration manager, I was the Weigh bridge operator , administrator, labourer in many areas. Wether it be picking up blown around litter from the cells, managing and logging well depths against table wat

Me and a professional chatting

Quora advocate advised me to post a response I gave in regards to the effects of loving and antidepressants.  So here it is....... good old copy and paste  ·  1 upvote  including  Natalie Engelbrecht I have to add another comment, in regards to “needing them”. I've suffered clinical depression so severely and no doubt a lot can relate too. What actually gets me out of the little cycle type behavior, is forcing myself to get up, go for a walk even if it ment dragging myself the whole time. I'd make my partner drive to a private distance and make me get some exercise. It took many of these before I noticed change. But change I got. I've now tricked my brain into thinking it needs to walk when it starts to slide downhill. I've even managed to turn to gardening when my brain is looking at listening to the drunken monkeys in my mind. (Or the subconscious. That doesn't sound so out there and crazy). I've learnt to take control of what every mind has. The

Thankyou for being you !

Rob, MY WHOLE LOTTA LOVE. if there's one thing I want to take with me, rob knows what that is.....  Fluffies. Every girl, lady or woman wants a man. No not a male, a man. And a man is what I got. At 27 and round two as far as relationships go, I got this one right, so right that it helped my soul grow and develop into womanhood.  I met this man not knowing what we were in for. A lot can't be put down on paper, but I bet he's smiling right now with that very comment. We were thrown into a world of the unknown, or maybe it was just me. Scaring away lots of boogeymen and me doing things that I've only ever seen in movies. I'm lucky that I'm not in jail. When I met rob, I met real love, real passion and a real man. I was safe with rob and our love was glowing. People used to stare all the time and I never understood why. A few friends explained that it was if fireworks were going off around rob and I, our love and energy glowed and it was as
