It is truly amazing when you look back on your life … and say what if … the could I … or should I …

becomes swallowed up by small daily concerns … when I was younger I had ambition … a desire to do something noteable … save man kind … cure some disease ….

when your life is totally consumer with daily dribble … work … food … sleep ….

when your real reason to be alive is to pay a bill …. chief seattle said what will happen when the wildness is gone … when the scent of men is everywhere …

the end of living and the beginning of surviving …

all my life I have just been surviving … the pills deaden the emptiness …. the routine dulls the pain … the loneliness separated me from love and feeling …

this is not bragging .. but I am yet to find a T long term … that by the third session … have not completely lost my faith in her …. none have been challenging or understanding … I lose respect in them …

my pdoc is my only anchor … five years … and as he says … no one knows me like he does … true ..

I know the meds can only do so much … but the human spirit can only take so much too …

I no longer feel human … like some atomatome going thru the paces …

I fear the black beast … he is calling me … so far very faint … just a whisper …

this time no new meds … lets ride the pony till it drops … to feel … I choke up and cry … not even sure what over comes me … my Soonkyu is still my last best hope …

am very tired as I write this … please forgive an old man for rambling so ….. Tigger ..

I wrestle with the same giants.

I feel doomed to forever looking backward. Putting my past on Justice’s scale and regretting how unjust I was. I am shamed by my behavior.

Is this survival? I thought that survival would “feel better” than this. I’m with you; I am no longer human. I lost my humanity deliberately.

I’m an old, rambling, man, too.

I’m not an old man, but I’m a moderately old woman. I too look back at all things that I could have, would have, should have done...but didn’t. Dealing with a chronic illness for years and then decades can really suck the life out of you. I’m fortunate enough to still feel human on good days. On bad days I feel like little more that a big wart on the a@@ of the earth. Oh well, tomorrow is another day.
