About the spasmodic dysphonia ... Scott Peck writes about that in People of the Lie (just one of my regular plugs for POTL!). Well, he didn't call it spasmodic dysphonia, but he talked about a pt. that couldn't speak in therapy for months.

Thanks, HeartofPilgrimage.

I often wonder if there is a connection between spasmodic dysphonia and being a survivor of a Narcissist.

Christmas is pressing down and the constant reminders of "family gatherings" is really DEPRESSING!   :(

Yeah..it triggers A LOT of UNPLEASANT memories of Christmas Past.  No wonder Ebenezer Scrooge said "Bah!  Humbug!"

Did you ever notice that around the holidays the ads for headache pain killers increase dramatically?

This year I just might do what I've wanted to do for years.  Blow everyone off and spend the day working in a homeless shelter.   :D

That's a very good idea for you to do!

To give an update on an earlier situation....

I posted last week that while going through my home and re-organizing things, I found stuff belonging to the N I used to sublet from.  This was stuff that the N ranted and raged at me about because I DARED MOVE from the apartment WITHOUT HER PERMISSION in spite of the fact that I gave her TWO MONTHS NOTICE to make a decision about HER STUFF!!!!

Well....it's been ONE WEEK since I notified her that her stuff has been located and her acknowledgment that she wanted her stuff YESTERDAY!!!!!  She stated that she would arrange with someone else to pick up and ship her stuff to her home in another state.  I commented to her that bf would be here to assist with the boxes.  I haven't heard a PEEP from her SINCE!!!!   :? :?

WTF?????????????????   :? :? :?

With Christmas bearing down, I've been wavering back and forth about whether or not to bother trying to buy any Christmas gifts this year.  The past couple of years, when I was able to afford to buy gifts, I would make an effort to get what bf wanted for Christmas, AFTER SPECIFICALLY ASKING WHAT HE WANTED AND HE SPECIFICALLY TOLD ME WHAT HE WANTED.  His usual response would be:  (a) take the Christmas wrap off the gift, (b) say "Thanks, Hon", while looking at the gift in his hands, (c) set the gift down on one of my shelves and NEVER look at it again!!!!   :x

This year, given that I'm struggling with medical bills and no job, I wondering WHY SHOULD I BOTHER?!?!?!?!?

Yeah, there are some men who don't seem interested in gifts. Others are. If you have one of the former "Why bother? :lol:

The thing that is so confusing is that if he's not interested in gifts, why ask for a gift in the first place?   :?

Well, maybe he thinks he should ask for one but doesn't really care in his heart. What do you think?           Ami
