Thanks. Glad you like my info and the things that I have learned and do.


SKR got me into looking in the mirror and reconnecting with myself. At first I was self conscious and afraid to do it. Not sure what I would see and I hate looking at myself in mirrors normally anyway. One day in therapy I made a sarcastic remark "yea right and the next thing you know Ill be drawing self portraits right. She laughed and said not a bad idea buy some soap crayons for outlining you in the mirror. Then we really hammed it up with ideas of how I could draw beards to go with this premenoapausal facial hair that was suddenly showing up on my face and driving me nuts trying to get rid of it. before I knew it I was doing all kinds of drawings and facial expressions and experimenting with bathroom items and the end result was great way to reconnect and stimulate all my senses.

Hang in there.

no matter how long I have been at it I still find new situations where I have no idea what is going on. Every day there is something new to challenge myself. I think new things make healing interesting. for if it was the same old thing same problem every day wheres the challege once I find the key to fixing that problem? I like new and I like to experiment to find new challenges that will push me to continue moving forwards.
