@Anrish , very cool. I grew up where Edgar Allen Poe drugged & drank (ahem- wrote) in his last years and was buried. As a teen we would all gather around his grave site in the country at midnight for Holloween, play music and party. Much of my art, photo projects during my younger college years involved metamorphosis art that allowed intergration of cultural diversity, child to woman freedom from oppression and grounded in earth while becoming opened to possibilites within the workforce as well as education. I won scholarships on it for my Masters...but I turned to accounting to feed my son.
Ok, a dark thing that I did. No excuses...I was naughty.
My son's father had a ongoing secret affair the whole time we were married (navy guy). I found out.:bawling: He said deal with it and refused to recant nor promise to be faithful. :devilish:
I called and set up an appointment for a therapist and asked for a woman doctor inorder to go over the darkside of rape, incest, beatings, being a hostage- ect. She canceled our first session as she was sick and put in this guy as he was new Marriage Family T in the practice. This is the truth now...he put himself through college being a Calvin Klein model. (I lived in CA.). I fell out ...of my mind and in a short time my son and I were living at the therapist home as a family.:facepalm: As the lust wore off and the shrink community was in an uproar, x-H now suing for malpractice as it ruined 'my' fidelity (not his affairs mind you)...I went back to x-H to file for a divorce while there.:( So this is where I learned about Carl Jung from my favorite mistake's bookcase full of psych books. Ah to be young, beautiful and in lust (cough) I mean love.:notworthy:
See everyone has a shadow side...ooh la-la!
@WildMermaid ...hugs for your headache.
