The Day I Lost My Mother
I remember every detail of this day as if it happened yesterday. The memory of the day my world fell apart will forever be etched into my mind. Thoughts about what could have been circling my mind as I finally deal with the trauma I drowned with alcohol and drugs for years.

Have You Ever Broken Up With A Friend?
A few years ago I had a best friend. This person was someone from high school whom I had lost track after graduating. While in college she found me again and we reconnected. We started hanging out frequently and started to develop a deeper friendship. This friendship would not have existed if it was not for her perseverance. You see, after high school I had turned into a very introverted and lonely individual. I did not want to make new friends and didn’t really take care of the old ones I had from high school. This friend, however, was persistent. She pushed me to do things with her. Soon my weekends were occupied with outings she had planned. We were friends for a few years and we even considered becoming roommates at one point. As time passed on I noticed that my friend was a goal setter. She had plans for her life and she wanted to be more social. She would invite me to some of her social gatherings but I just couldn’t see myself there. Soon she got a boyfriend and started to be a bit busier with her life. Still, she would always keep communicating with me as a good friend does. One particular night we decided to go see a play. The night was fun and we enjoyed our show. On the drive back from the play my friend talked about how many plans she had for the following year, it was December at that point. For some reason once she dropped me off at my house I decided that day would be the last day I would ever see her again.

Addiction
I guess I always did have a problem with alcohol. The first time I ever drank at a young age led to a blackout. So did most of the other times when I come to think about it. I suspect genetics, bad choices, and a little childhood trauma mixed with an addictive personality are to blame here, but who really knows? I guess it doesn’t really matter, I just have to deal with it now.

SHATTERED ASPIRATIONS OF YOUTH IN AFRICA
Once I was six years old, making promises worth billions of dollars, to Mama and Papa. Like it was an easy task, I said, "Mum, I will buy three big cars for you and daddy one day, a private jet, and build a house with a swimming pool for you. I will give you lots of money. I will employ three drivers, and five house maids".

Three gifts that sobriety has given me over the past three years
I should clarify that sobriety (for me) is no alcohol, as everyone’s idea of sobriety is different. Alcohol, to me, is the most toxic substance, along with sugar you can consume, and both, of course legal.

Why am I here?. Top Story - August 2023.
After reading some stories from others who have confessed their reasons for writing, I am inspired to share my own. The pandemic has changed me in ways I never expected but let's be honest, anyone who says the pandemic didn't change them in some way, shape, or form, is telling a bold faced lie. I am a 39 year old female and feel as if I could be the poster child of late in life diagnosis of ADHD and Anxiety. I'll spare you the details of my medication journey since I've covered that in another story (No Manual for This). I am now medication free and learning to navigate life with two mental illnesses that feed off of each other and can keep me incredibly high strung if I let them.

When Depression Comes Back . Content Warning.
About a year ago I posted some tips on how I was able to keep depression at bay with showers, meditation and affirmations. I wanted to share this information with everyone because I know how debilitating depression can be. For about a year I was able to live depression free. My mood had ups and downs but nothing like what I experienced before. However two months ago that all changed. I work in the education field and have a pretty set routine from Monday to Friday. I go to sleep early, wake up early, work for 8 hours, go home and follow a detailed written schedule everyday except for the weekends.

Trash
As I checked in to the hotel the woman above checked me in. I had to give her my tribal identification and my credit card. When I explained that the conference was paying for my hotel, she didn't have it showing that in front of her. I said I would take care of it the next day and was on my way.
