I just want to say hello to everyone...the name is aquamarine, but you may all call me "aqua" for short! ![[Smile]](images/icons/smile.gif) I am looking to heal myself, and my inner child from the abuse I have suffered repeatedly, throughout my life. Only the strong, SURVIVE...and I am tired of just existing, and muddling in life...I want to LIVE, LOVE, and LAUGH...and just feel like ME, again.

sure...I am 45, and basically, I am suffering from "empty pitcher syndrome"~nothing left of myself to offer, and I feel so alone, and feel like a failure even though I KNOW otherwise, and I was diagnosed with severe depression, and anxiety just about 3 years ago...I am engaged for 2 years, and live with my fiance, in Wisconsin. We are both self employed in our respective fields, he is a mechanic, and can do just about anything from farming, to custom fabrication welding...and I have started my own commercial/residential cleaning service 3 months ago...it keeps me busy, and helps pay the bills!
If there's anything else you want to know, just ask!

Welcome Aqua,
This will be a great place to get your "pitcher filled"!
You will find many women here who can relate to what you are going through and what you've been through!
I pray that you find deep healing here!
great, big, warm, boomer hugs,
danita

Dear Aqua, thank you for giving so much of yourself in your first few posts. I can assure you that you have come to a great place to fill you up with hope and healing. I too was diagnosed with anxiety/depression and I am much recovered. Well, meds help a lot too, as well as friends and faith. You will find that here, too. My birthstone is aquamarine. Such a beautiful image comes to mind with your screen name! Love and Light, Lynn
