those who are dead are not dead
they’re just living in my head
and since i fell for that spell
i am living there as well
oh..
time is so short and i’m sure
there must be something more
you thought you might be a ghost
you thought you might be a ghost
you didn’t get to heaven but you made it close
you didn’t get to heaven but you oh oh
oh oh…

this description's pretty good..
i've had all these symptoms..
fortunately no numbness/nausea this time..
feeling less confused now.. it's scary to be so out of control.. can't talk straight, can't understand what people say, can't remember, confused and half blind..
my hubster has to come home early to drive my son to his classes/back.. i can't drive the car home & he's still on his permit so can't drive alone..
i'm so cold.
winter's here..
ghost
my aura starts out pinpoint with the blindspot and people have one eye.. then grows slowly over about a half hour till it's around the right eye and goes behind/out of vision..
but it's neurological/in both eyes even with eyes closed.

i'm sick again.
and eve has her fucking claws in my sKuLL :(
i'm digging new deeper chambers in the snowcave to retreat to now that my support forum has kinda gone to hell.
been playing morrowind right down to the glitchy end.. then i'm wrestling Fable2 from my son if i have to.
the cold finally got to our spider, his web's all broke and he's dead. i'll miss him. (well, i don't actually see his little body, maybe he's merely on a little plane with other spiders heading for socal?)
so weary of the fucktard world of humans. the inevitable daily dose of hate from all sides.
i'll take felines and arachnids anyday.

p.s.
die, you gravy sucking pig.

sick sick sick sick.
can't eat, sleep.. have no trust at all that a dr will help me. but i should find a new one and schedule an appt. soon. my old one moved away & i've avoided it too long. .. .. then again, maybe i won't.
(btw i'm glad she left because all she did was throw lexapro/effexor at me and act like she was looking at someone else's chart..)
:(
i'm going to try some of that ensure stuff now since it's liquid and replaces food. funny, thanks to the internet i finally learn (oh 25 or so years late?) about 'esophogeal ring' as a result of gastroesophogeal disease.. basically due to scar tissue it shrinks to less than 1/2" and doesn't allow food through to the stomach, especially meat & dry bread.. haha.. my life story.. thank goodness now we know and my son, who inherited my toxic dna, will get actual proper help with what he's begun experiencing.. what he calls 'chokey foods'.. when i first got it as a teenager a good dr looked in my throat and diagnosed my esophogitis and pharyngeal edema.. but then she left (to do missionary work in rwanda?) and i immediately went to the first of many hmo drs who (without looking in my throat) diagnosed the problem as anxiety and started me on xanax.. which only made matters worse.. from then on i was represcribed xanax and told anxiety by every so-called 'pro' who never had to cry themselves to sleep choking at night.. fuckinghell yeah i was anxious!
never trust.
never trust.
so as everyone knows by now i've given up thinking i'll get help and honestly i just wait to collapse. too tired to deal with things in a different way i guess.

it's real cold & i'd like a drink.
i still think of alcohol as a gift from god
(used responsibly = no driving)
like true love, to me it feels like home.
if i were a flower, i'd be a snowcatcher..
(easily crushed.. dead in appearance = me)

new migraine..
i'm at letter F but there are not many good feminine F names..
so i'm naming her feobe (after holden caulfield's little sister, phoebe)
i'm having so much trouble just trying to interact with the humans.. i make a point of always trying to be considerate and keep things friendly, but people generally are so defensive and rude, and don't want to think outside of the shallow end of the pool.. my son & i talk about our feelings of alienation often since we both share the same accutely sensitive personality types.. it costs too much to subject myself to others' seemingly endless senseless infliction of damage.. i have to focus on taking care of myself & my own and set some things/people aside, i guess..
the world (of humans) is cold and cruel.. and a new generation of people with their eyes closed are born every minute..
digging deep,
ghost

Hey Friend,
Remember me? I think about you all the time :) I cracked up visiting the psych connection and reading the election posts. Especially your "ist it really the end of the world?.." comment. I see you are still broken hearted and I am disappointed to tell you that I still am too. But you know me, I keep trying with the therapy. Still giving K hell. The somatic therapy turns out pretty effective for me, but I can't afford both and you know, I can't give up K. Too frustrating!
Remember, keep passing the open windows (because, let's face it, with our luck it just wouldn't be high enough :) Em

hehee..
you gave me a chuckle & i needed one, em! i am haunted by your comment once that my personal demons would not be so accomodating now that they know my preference.. argh! alas so true! so true!
i still breathe and haunt.
so glad you're getting something outta yer therapy.. but sorry you also must learn to live the broken life.. we never do mend i suppose..?
you are sorely missed at the board! i would use capitals but that would seem like yelling rather than whining.. i personally feel deprived of your unique AD wisdom/take on life.. you should come by & say hi?
well, take care & brace yourself.. xmas is upon us..
ghost
