About Me
Hi! I am Heide. I am dually diagnose with addiction and mental disorders. I go to mental health therapy once a week for now and I see a psychiatrist every three months. I am also on medication and has to be regulated occasionally. I have a sponsor and have many friends from A.A. I use A.A. to help me try to find solution's to my problems. It is also comforting to be able to share things and realize that these people have been threw it themselves. Like it's no secret and I am not unique. It has been a great help for me because I now know I'm not alone. I found a higher power (Jesus) and I found spirituality. I am at peace and the things that use to baffle me...makes me laugh! It's like I learn a whole new way to live. Many good experiences and many miracles. As for my mental health issues, I have been diagnose with Bi-polar type two, ADHD, OCD, Depression and Anxiety Diorder. It is hard to living with mental diorders and addiction. They run hand in hand. With the bi-ploar I seem to go threw mania stages more that manic. I sometimes get so depress that I wake up in the morning so mad at God for keeping me alive. Than out of no where I am so happy go lucky I don't know what to do with myself. I want to learn more about spirituality and I am out to make new friends. I am pretty much open to anything.

Women’s Support.
Becoming Our Own Role Models.
As women embrace the fullness of who they are as individuals, they may find themselves supporting other women, helping others to reach the level of inner comfort and outer freedom that they themselves have found. Among those who are less sure of themselves and their place in the world, it may be more common to criticize other women than to seek their help. But there are things that a woman can only learn from another woman, as there are things about being a man that can only be learned from other men. We all recognize that we have much to learn from each other regardless of gender, but sometimes we could use a supportive role model that gives us a more precise example of what and who we can become.
There was a time where women stood together in a bond of sisterhood, women supporting women. It is only natural that the pendulum swings out of balance for a while so that we may have the experience of what we do not want. It is up to women to bring the pendulum back into balance and bring back the sacred sisterhood we yearn for at our core.
If we envision a world where women support each other and help each other find their place in an ever-changing world, then we can become the change we want to see. Jealousy, envy, criticism, and judgment are refuges for the insecure. As we help others to become self-assured, we create a world in which all people help each other, regardless of gender. Only women can make the change in how women are seen and understood, not just by other women but by the world at large. The way we speak about each other to other women and to the men in our lives informs everyone to treat us with the respect that all women, and all people, deserve.
