Why you ask? Well, we felt that a new image was needed and couldn't answer the question, what does your blog name mean????

Stronger

Now, now, now, that, that that don't kill me - Can only make me stronger!

I feel that only after a short amount of time I have really become a stronger person. I don't let the evil anxiety demon take over my every waking thought. I, for the first time in many, many months can have a rational argument.  Now don't go thinking I am certifiably crazy now, I don't completely contribute this to my medication, I contribute it to the fact that I stopped thinking that irrational being was really who I am or all I can be.

It has given me a sense of security like a baby with a blanket. I won't scream, unless absolutely necessary, I won't cry, unless absolutely necessary, and I won't shake from the inside, that is never necessary.

I am stronger, or really, I have always been strong, but it has just been hiding behind this shadow of a person I can be, a person that can rock this world.

Is someone going to help?

Why do we turn the other way as a society when we see wrong doing's? Is it fear or apathy?

This past week of have been told a few stories to where I have asked myself, why didn’t someone step in and help these people?

One was of a little boy and girl who are always unattended and when the parents are seen they scream things such as "get your asses in the house". I asked the person that witnessed this and asked “why haven’t you reported them?” He said I didn't think I had enough proof of anything... Two small children wandering blocks from their house and being screamed and cursed at, I say you have enough proof. Call DCFS and have it investigated. Especially since this wasn’t an isolated incident. He lives in this person’s neighborhood and see’s it happening often.

The second story was of couples that was targeted because they are gay and were assaulted and no one helped them. People heard the attack, were outside while it happened and not one person called the police. Doesn’t make me feel very safe!

I’m not saying to become a vigilante or anything but open your eyes and if something seems shady, it probably is…

From the land of crazy...

No real update on the anxiety part, I believe that takes time, but good news is that this medication makes my food taste really weird...so we may not have a huge issue with weight gain, and as a stress eater, this may be a win win situation.
And I have had some really good sex too, so I am quite pleased with the first week results.
Here's to more progress for week two.
