Hmmm, went back this morning and reviewed the post I put up last night. I ended it quite abruptly. I suppose that's what I get for rambling on the internet in the middle of the night while also binging The Resident on Netflix. I'm sure you'll be in for a treat when I eventually put… Continue reading Adverse Childhood Event or Adult Trauma?
Emma. You're a fucking idiot. For all the precautions I take online to hide from certain people... I know I'm not completely invisible, and it would be inevitable one day... but... Well, I updated my LinkedIn account a few days ago. Of course, my location and all that is on there. And of course, I… Continue reading Oh… Oh No…
I've been doing training days this week... and today ended with a Domestic Violence training presentation for RNs. Specifically recognizing red flags and screening patients as well as next steps if we were to identify a domestic violence concern or high risk of danger situation... As the presentation went on, I felt the familiar hollow… Continue reading Get Back To Grounding, Emma
I wasn't really sure where to start in my therapy journal today. I went to the MD Renaissance Faire on Sunday (2 days ago) with Sarah - it was awesome... but also, it was the same Ren Faire I went to with Wyatt back in ~96 or 97. I wrote about it here and talked… Continue reading Poor Winnie

In therapy last week, we started talking about the sexual abuse I received... I took... I suffered? I honestly don't know what to call it, as I expressed to her that I've always hated the thought of myself as a "victim." Anyway, we started talking about the sexual abuse I took from Wyatt - rather… Continue reading He Had Used Wyatt’s Word Against Me – Therapy Notes
At the time I am writing and scheduling this post, I am supposed to be starting to go through some, well all I suppose, of the sexual abuse from Wyatt with my therapist so we can also work through the after effects of it. We didn’t get started today as planned, so it will be… Continue reading A Memory I’d Like To Say Is Vague
*Originally published July 9, 2015. A post about the red flags I ignored in David... I deleted a lot of the original intro that had nothing to do with it... I am now going to post an answer to a question I was asked on Stories That Must Not Die. I submitted two of my… Continue reading Toxic Friendship
Myself and Maja, on the night of this story Reposting this story as I do some Maja memories in honor of her upcoming nuptials and my upcoming trip to be there for her as a bridesmaid 😉 There have been a few changes, for added details (that I think I included in my book...?) And… Continue reading When Maja Saved My Life – Updated Version
My Tik Tok feed has been awfully triggering lately. So much so that as I scrolled through it at 4 AM and it prompted another memory that I hadn't thought about for a long time... and apparently hadn't even thought about adding to my memoirs, LOL. The Tik Tok in question was by @justinknuckleswrites in… Continue reading I Was 16… I Mean… 12.
