Don’t know if anyone’s noticed that I added a couple of survivor blogs to the blogroll, End of Abuse and The last one. As always, if you know of any blogs by abuse depression or disability survivors, please pass them on!

I wrote this in an email the other day and after reading it again in the reply something about it struck me. I didn’t mean for it to be a deep philosophical statement, but it sort of is. (I’m blaming the lack of caffeine). “The one constant in life is change” I realized in reading…
I came across this article the other day that talks about Millennials, and how in those cases where there was real “helicopter parenting”, you have some young adults who can’t figure out how to manage their time, how to hold a job, or make any sort of adult decision for themselves. As silly as it…
Pin I’m going to be honest here. I’ve never been a Linkin Park fan. I’m not really familiar with their music at all. They came along at a time in my life when my music tastes had moved away from what I like to refer to as “new” Metal, and I just never had much cause…
From a comment below: “The journey of a 1,000 miles goes step by step and starts with the first step, everything else remains locked in your imagination.” Recovering from abuse is just like that, you take each step one at a time and you don’t really know where the journey will lead you, but it…
I’ve been talking with someone about the topic of being touched in public, or by various people. I’m somewhat fascinated by what other people’s feelings are on the subject. I’m very uncomfortable being touched by all but a few people in the world, and I’ve slways assumed that’s because of the abuse. That short list…
Pin Last month, my wife and I spent a few days in Las Vegas and made a stop to see the James Turrell art installation called Akhob. It’s an interesting concept, and kind of a strange experience. The idea is that our emotions and perceptions can be altered by being engulfed in light. As the colors…

Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment. I hope, as I’ve always hoped for this site, that it is a place where survivors of all races, male and female would feel a little less alone. I know it’s rare for men to speak of being sbuse survivors anywhere, but there are some of us out here. Keep writing!
please forgive me for answering only now. you put my blog on your blog and i’m touched. In Israel the whole subject on abuse is still kind of new-ish. But NEVER is there a situation where male survivors speak up. And i mean NEVER. I am at awe each time i see that. You see, we aren’t educated like that. Besides the fact that we, the older survivors, have no room to ‘let’ it out. The expectation from us is high, too high. And that is such a shame. We have a lot to learn.
Thanks Katrina, I’ve added your site as well!
I just wanted to let you know about my blog. Thank you. Katrina
