I would love to know what you folks do as an outlet, a healthy outlet, such as hobbies or activities, that help deal with loneliness, sorrow, depression, anxiety, and a reprieve from fear. I love playing outside, always have, but never really realized how important it was for me to get some days in the sun while I play. What are you do? Or what things do you do? :-)
I love to read, not counting my research, just damn good books. I also have two daughters, 3 and 9 and my whole world is wrapped in them. My Yorkie abd of course the hubby get what’s left over haha

I used to think my roommate (ex-husband) was my only real friend & help. I see now that is not even so. We have been thru a lot together as husband & wife, & friends. I even supported him financially after we split up while he applied for disability & fought for 9 years w/ attorneys & lost. I worked 2 full-time jobs while we were still together. Paid what bills he could not when I was living with my ex boyfriend. Now the tables are turned & he has the business I once did. Not willing to put the… read more

I have lower back pain for years. Now I have Sciatica along with everything else. I have gone to Neurologists, Ortho guys, my Primary, a Chiro and a few others, and mostly the only thing offered to me is Drugs. I can have "anything I want" from Asprin to Percoset. I dont want any of it. I want to find a treatment or cure that I can actually live with. PT doesnt work for me bevause it only brings on more pain. I'm 71, I'd like to enjoy the years I have left.
Being in the medical field, like others here, some of us have noticed that medicine is the first line of defense. And that may save a life. It has to be individualized. But many times, getting to… read more
