Glitter and Gloom

It's been a hell of a year. 2012 saw health scares from several relatives, my sister and her children moved out and in November I finally couldn't take the stress of existing and asked (you read that right) to be admitted to the local psychiatric hospital. I was concerned for my well being, stress and anxiety had built to the point where I could no longer handle the idea of living another day. My mind was on fire and burning out of control. The week I spent at CBHC was enlightening and I have a lot more to say about it, but that trip AND the one I took this March both deserve their own posts. Just thought I should update with a little "hi, hello, not dead" type post.
