Hi guys!
I know im a tad overdue.
Big sorry to everyone that worried. Especially to the kind folks that sent emails and pms. Gavin and I are indeed alive, married and well. Thats the good news. The bad news is he had to go back to England. Long story short the whole immigration process was a nightmare, and we decided it was in our best interest at this time to live in England instead of Hawaii. Im stuck here for the time being until my dog finishes the required Quarentine so i wont be moving till Febuary. I have a job in a nice office so ive been keeping very busy. Right now Gav is on the job search looking for a teaching position or anything really. If anyone knows of any jobs in Brighton please let us know.
Heres some very good news. We are completely off meds. Both of us. I did it for myself, Gavin had to because he couldnt get meds here.(another nightmare) We weened off them together. Gavin had some ups and downs but hes doing considerably well. No panic attacks so far knock on wood! Maybe he will come back on here to tell his story further.
As for me im doing good. I feel good about myself. I gained alot of weight being on the meds, but since ive been off ive gone 100% vegan, and i feel fantastic. The weight is starting to slowly come off. Im still too lazy to excersize but i borrowed my dads bowflex elite and plan to start kicking some a$$ soon. Mentally i feel good. Not totally at the top of my game but definately on the path. Ive accepted that i have some brain damage that may never be reversed. Im not ok with that, but im not going to dwell on it either. Life must go on. I think thats why ive stayed away from the site for this long. Ive done a bit of lurking just to make sure everyone is still here, but its so easy for me to get sucked back into the cycle that i think i needed a break just to go out and taste the world for a while.
But anyway, im here, im good, and maybe ill post summore soon. You guys are the best and i hope everyone is well. Thanks so much for all of your concern and support.
love love love to you all....
