  • Decades of my life

    The most enduring subject of my MD is the relationship I had with my first boyfriend. He was so sweet. And so genuine. I knew he loved me. Still after all these years I can still hear his voice and feel those feelings. I have searched for that feeling with somebody else. So many years I have…

  • Kind of Losing the Plot a bit here

    Hi again :)In the past week, I've been going overboard with MDing. I've been finding it enjoyable again, which I'm not very happy about. My feet are completely wrecked. Walking now is painful.

  • Over 40 days MD free - but I still wasn't happy

    I've managed to go over 40 days without MD, but I still wanted to do it. I felt more and more anxious and everything seemed more dull.
