Guest guest Posted November 23, 2002 Report Share Posted November 23, 2002 Hi, all. Just wanted to connect. My eldest seems to be spiraling back into a depression, and I am trying to hold her up with my bare hands....seems like it. My mom (with brain cancer) actually feels and looks great, so we can all be happily in denial that the doctors gave her less than a year. She is having no bad side effects to the chemo and radiation. Amazing. I am looking for a new psychiatrist, because our present one, although I like her, is way overly busy. There are 4 of us here on about 10 different medications, and I think we need a lot more monitoring than we're getting. I am considering enrolling my eldest in a small, private girls' school. All of the kids are home-educated at the moment, but I think she needs a lot of structure right now to keep her from floundering. My middle one is getting " spicier " --our world for pubescent moods--and her OCD and TS are worse. I have purchased a multi-alarm watch for her to see if it helps her not to get lost in ADD. My youngest is doing great. A low dose of Prozac and some ERP sessions seem to be keeping him pretty OCD free. Of course, now I think he's getting some tics, but that's life in an asylum. I have been feeling crappy which, aside from obvious circumstances, is also, I suspect, to do with " Prozac poop-out " after two years of use. Well, love you all. fanniemayqueen ________________________________________________________________ Sign Up for Juno Platinum Internet Access Today Only $9.95 per month!

Guest guest Posted May 11, 2009 Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 Hi...I'm Gale, a life long lover/wearer of fine perfumes. My interest in natural perfumery has evolved from my 30+ year interest in growing organic herbs and (non-endangered) wild plants for health and good foods. With maturity, I've developed increasing skin sensitivities and now desire to create my perfumes from 'all' natural elements. Although, I do blend EO's, I'm very much a novice, eagerly learning and delighted to have found this group. This Spring, I've begun tincturing everything in site - lol. If it's not nailed down or running away from me, it ends up in an everclear bath. It's proving to be a great learning experience. Just getting ready to try enfleurage techniques on some of the more delicate blossoms. Eventually , I hope to offer my perfume blends to the public, but have much to learn before this can happen. My day job is here: http://bez-jewelry.com and here: http://newromantic.1000markets.com Can't imagine not wearing wonderful scent...it's such an integral part of my life.
