Sometimes I wonder if I’ll ever recover all my mind.
- Between being crazy– {the good kind!};
- Motherhood ; “Momzheimers”-I think I saw this on Jenny’s Unremarkable Files???? But of course, I can’t find the post now. sigh And I’ve heard that insanity is inherited- you get it from your children! 😉 (See the numbers?? I can’t even get my numbered bullets to act right, much less my body, and brain chemistry!!)
- Alcoholism; We all know alcohol pickles stuff!! Thank God, I was only an alcoholic for several years, then got sober, by the grace of God! I would be full on mentally deficient of any brains at ALL, if I had kept that up for 20 more years!! {Shout out to God, I’ve been delivered from alcohol, and sober for almost 24 years now!!}
- Thyroid fog; This is so real. Many people are not aware, if they don’t have it.

- and 4 nervous breakdowns; All related to teaching, which is why I’m disabled;
It’s a wonder I have ANY pieces left!!
And I do miss the pieces that are missing. I’m still young enough to remember when they were all there, and how sharp I was! In school, I had a very nearly photographic memory. [So handy, for testing!! ] In my freshmen year at SEC (now SEU), I knew all the names of my class mates, almost 200 of us. Now, most of the film is missing, or just doesn’t develop! Or, should I say the memory chip is faulty??
I loved playing word games, puns, alliterating, etc. Oh sure, I still alliterate, but privately, when I can take up to days, or weeks to figure out the perfect phrase!!
Anyways, just thought I’d remind y’all that mental problems do exist, and they are affecting more people than you realize.
So, be kind, rewind, oops- sorry! rote memorization programming kicked in there! Be kind to everyone, and smile. I promise it doesn’t hurt, it’s free, and you just might make someone’s day!
