My Little Princess

I could hardly see through the stream of tears, but that shade of red that covered my hands was all too familiar for me to not know what it was. It happened again. I thought I was over this, I thought we had fixed this issue. I suppose not. All I could see around me […]

Justifying Crazy: What I Haven’t Told Anyone About My Mental Illnesses

Readers view at their own discretion.   It was at age fourteen, as we left the doctor’s office with a spare K10 test, a diagnosis of three mental illnesses, a referral to a psychologist and a prescription for Fluoxetine, that my parents said “it’s probably best to keep quiet about […]

Strippers

This whole “life” thing would’ve been a lot easier, for me and everyone else, if only my parents had kept paint-stripper under the kitchen sink instead of premium Polish vodka. At least that’s what I tell myself I was looking for all those years ago. I love the smell of paint-stripper. Vodka is a stripper in it’s own right. Here […]
