Making simple changes to deal with depression, being gay, and foster parenting. About Me (& Us). I love love love to read. I devour books. Sometimes, I have to tell myself to slow down and savor every word, because, if it’s a good book, it’s over too soon. When I find a book I love, I become a book pusher. “Here, read this book. I think you’d really like it. Do you want to borrow it? 8221; And then the very annoying, “Have you started it, what do you think? With a stamp and everything. The Time Travelers...

Making simple changes to deal with depression, being gay, and foster parenting. About Me (& Us). Never worry about the first night →. Placement Office, I am on to you. March 6, 2014. You know we are NOT on the list for respite, right? But, you call us for TWO boys that we don’t have the physical space for. We feel bad. The next day, you call us for “just” one five year old boy, for probably a week. Maybe more. View all posts by EratMama →. This entry was posted in Uncategorized. Leave a Reply Cancel reply.

Making simple changes to deal with depression, being gay, and foster parenting. About Me (& Us). Adoption is Born from Tragedy. Placement Office, I am on to you →. March 6, 2014. I wasn’t sure what Carrot’s mood would be like as I picked her up from school the day I told her we were adopting her. Conveniently, she had a therapy session scheduled that day, and, we have many of our best conversations in the car. She told me she told her friends about the adoption and they were so excited for her. You are c...

The secret inner life of someone who has it all. I can be emailed at my-alter-ego at hotmail. Another Chance To Get It Right (Offline). Secret Life of A Manic Depressive. Sophie in the Moonlight. Somehow I seem to have become an expert on this, though I’ve never done it. The sleep disturbances from doing the job are difficult on me. The other day I worked a night shift, and then went to a meeting and one of my new doctor friends said, “You seem a little manic, eh? At one of our meetings, another physicia...

Yet another Shrink’s Line of the Day. Unfortunately, he answered the phone, despite my best attempts at timing to get voicemail. At this point he cut me off and said ominously, “Well, I’m sorry too that. You’ve chosen to be like this and end things this way. 8221; and hung up. Am I so crazy that I am imagining t...

I have a secret. This is the kind of thing I never admit. Not hardhearted, icy, witchy I. Ya no respondo como antes. 8230;I never have. Te acuerdas de mi. No soy as que el mismo flaco. Con un conato de panza. Que me esta haciendo lucir. Como luce una soga. El pelo un poco mas corto. Y una tos de cigarro. Que se ...

The secret inner life of someone who has it all. I can be emailed at my-alter-ego at hotmail. Another Chance To Get It Right (Offline). Secret Life of A Manic Depressive. Sophie in the Moonlight. Another dilemma about the shrink. According to the family, the patient had refused to be hospitalized. But he had continued to feel unwell, and agreed, with much convincing, to return to the emergency room. I briefly inquired – he had said, in fact, that he would rather die than lose his independence, that...

Still alive, beyond comfort of man or spirit. Thank you to everyone who left me comments or emails or anything. All much appreciated. Sorry I haven’t written back. Well, I guess I’m still angry about the borderline comment. I wish my shrink weren’t so complicit with my self-punishment. Sunday, March 22, 2009.

I can still read poetry or essays, but I cannot read a novel because I simply don’t remember what I read the last time. The Drug of Forgetting. Still, I don’t t...
