was gossiping about me to me. So I get the small town thing. Only my small town gaslit me. That does make it very much worse. Treat the DU and the internet like the campfire we would have been sitting around thousands of years ago..telling our story to our peeps.(((HUGS))). Yes crippling. I had a DUI as I started drinking heavily after I was traumatized at 30. That really affected my adrenaline. So I can't ski or drive or ride a bike. Or watch any exciting sport on the tv. I can't work. Which I miss probably the most this month. Someone I trust a great deal told me this month not to work as my trust issue are unfair to put on others. So that is another dream gone. Gossip gets to my friends and I lose them. Pretty hard life so I'm glad I'm on meds. I was always very soft. Never would have chosen this life. My life is too big for me. All I can do is politics online, evolutionary psychology and read novels and cultural histories. I find focusing my interests gives me joy. And time for family.
