I Am In DenialLove my iPad Mini. I'm not into techy stuff, but I got it as a company gift and I became very fond of it. I've played many games and had lots of fun with it. Lately, though, when I've tried to install new apps, I've been getting messages like "The...See More »
I Have Stopped CaringBoth my parents passed away recently, my dad in August and my mom last week. They were both ill for a long time, in their 80s, so it was not really a surprise... The last 15-20 years I'd been trying to help them as I could, sending them whatever...See More »
I Find Peace In Nature Driving down the highway after a Father's day family thing around 10 PM, which in this part of the world, and this time of the year, is still daylight outside... The sun had long gone down, but the sky still had that pale yellowish/greenish glow......See More »
I Have AnxietyI've been having panic attacks about doing my taxes (due April 30th here in Canada). I shouldn't be worried about this, my income last year was less than the year before so I should have less taxes to pay (I'm self employed). All I have to do is get...See More »

How do I know if I've gone insane?I mean, being insane by definition is being unable to understand reality, or being unable to tell fact from fantasy... so how do I know if everything I think makes sense, or if everything I hear or see is real...? 🤔
I've Made Mistakes In LifeI got married in 1992. I can't say it was the "happiest day of my life". I was very much in love, yet I felt terribly anxious about what lied ahead... I had been living with my parents to save money, had just started my first real job, just out of...See More »
Are these suicide hotlines any good...?I mean, do they offer any "help" beyond sugar-coating stuff and make the caller feel "someone really cared"...? Has anyone used these hotlines and feel like "Great! I'm so glad I called!"...? I'd think if someone really wants to commit suicide, that...See More »
I'd Like To Go Back In Time And Start OverA few months ago I came across some old pictures from my old school (1976 - 1983) on the internet. That was in a different country where I grew up, in Brazil, where I lived from when I was 9 to 17 years old. I recognized several people, kids, and in...See More »
