Going back to my younger years for a bit, I've heard that I didn't officially start talking until around three or four years of age—though my twin sister and I were still incredibly close.

Ok so I have never typed this out anywhere, not even in my notes app. I have a phobia of men. Not the "I'm a little shy around guys" kind, an actual phobia, the kind where my hands go cold and I forget how to breathe normal. I'm 29, I work in accounts payable for a mid size logistics company, and for almost three…

I know how to deal with some of them. I’m not going into details. I just wanna know if one day they’re going to stop. The main reason it’s because november and december sometimes represents hard times for me. Those months were the beginning of a traumatic event.
I’m fine but from time to time they’re back and I…

But all they ever do is send you to the pharmacy and then the pharmacy turn round and say call the doctors and make an appointment as if the doctors weren't the one who sent / told you to go to the pharmacy. And when you go to try and…
