Here I am. Stuck in worry. Again. I want to share my journey with you. My struggles and my victories. Right now, I am struggling. I had thyroid surgery 26 years ago when a goiter appeared overnight. They first attempted to drain it. That was traumatic for me, as I tried not to swallow as …
I have shared about my struggle with depression and anxiety. My journey has led me through various ways of coping; herbal supplements, prescription medications, healing prayer, and light therapy.
