I haven't had alcohol since last year. I'm an anxious person that battles depression & cPtsd. I'm trying to prevent dementia and keep my brain and heart healthy. With alcohol being a depressant, full of sugar, I decided to cut it out. Proud of my 275 days. What are you proud of?

Survivors reading this: unclench your jaw, drop your shoulders. Take a deep breath, feel your feet on the floor and let your breath drop down into your belly. Your well-being matters now please, burn it all to the fucking ground.

We don’t just raise our girls to avoid assault. We raise our boys to not assault. To stand up for others. No silent complicity. The violence will never stop if we don’t include half of the population.

One of my special talents: responding to good things in my life that I’m looking forward to with the exact fucking same level of anxiety as the things I’m dreading.

Just got a text that the local library renewed six items, thereby saving me a fine and allowing me to keep using the books, which are helping me teach my Appalachian Lit & Environment course by continuing to learn about seed conservation. Libraries are a vital boon for all types of people.

Had a random test at work today, said they found opiates, I told them it was probably from the poppy seeds on my bagel. But then they asked about the THC, hallucinogens, cocaine & the methamphetamines Told them it was an everything bagel.

I believe in not answering the phone, the door, or a text if I don’t have the mental capacity or energy to interact. Unless it’s an emergency, folks don’t need that much access to y’all.

I never want my kids to think, "I cannot tell my parents, they will get so mad." I want thier first thought to be, "I need to tell my parents, they’ll always help."

Recently in an interview President Barack Obama got emotional recalling how he used to read mail from his constituents. Then I got emotional recalling how we used to have a President who cared about us and could read.

People obsess over the tiny percentage of false reports while ignoring the mountain of abuse and sexual assault that never gets reported. That’s fucked up.
