"Self injury" (Tsugaru)

MDJunction to me

ThereseML"When I first came to MDJ, I was in need of peer support in dealing with issues of my childhood abuse. I was moving away from the painful issues and trying to find an uplifting group of people to help me transition to a thriver in my life. I found that here. I also found a group of peers with Fibromyalgia and found the same uplifting experience there. My computer crashed and it was a while before I found my way back, this time with issues related to Parkinson's Disease. I had tried a few other support sites before reminding myself of MDJ. On those, I never got a reply. I finally found my way back here and again found very supportive, caring and inspiring people who made me feel like I was 'back home'. Indeed I am." (ThereseML)

its official then, memory is a problem and we all will have to learn to live without a good one - i am going to try and write more lists - and maybe take more pictures so i can remember stuff

recently i went somewhere with friends - we had done the same trip the last year and the one before that - i could not remember either and they all talked about it as if it was yesterday

things like that are embarrasing to me - but even worse is when i cant remember names - some take a LONG time to get - and others are just once

Mood subject to change at moments notice

I am not a bad person trying to be good, but a sick person trying to be well

For me it is stress. When I am stressed i can't remember anything. So it is just habit for me to write everything significant, for me and the rest of the family, down in my Google calendar and it is synced with my phone to alert me. Even though at the time I feel I can remember, I never know what I will be like come the time I need to remember. Know what I mean? Lol. Those other people who think you "forget" on purpose will get theirs someday...we all get oldWink
