Monday May 1, 2023 | Happy Mental Health Awareness Month

-
When I got up this morning, I saw #Happy (babygirl) playing with a dead squirrel in the backyard.  She had killed it.  Then Sophie picked it up and brought it into the house and dropped it in the kitchen. She went onto the bed. I thought she had dropped it onto the bed.  I know Mom would have wanted to change the sheets on the bed because I didn't think she wanted to sleep on a bed that Sophie dropped a squirrel on. Actually she dropped the dead squirrel on the the kitchen floor by the table. In turn, Happy killed a squirrel and Sophie brought it in. 


Ugh! Disgusting Happy!  But Cats will be cats and dogs have to listen to their owners.  Sophie doesn't listen to my parents--the real owners but Sophie listens to me.  Sophie will end up being mine anyway when they decide to go into a nursing home.  


Just yesterday, I was looking at my dad and I thought he is getting old and noticed that is losing his hair. Oh, I almost cried.  It's hard to think that when they get ready to move into a nursing home.  Just wanted to know that if and when they decide to go into a nursing home, I wonder if it would trigger my selective mutism. So I got to thinking that when they pass it would probably trigger my selective mutism and I wouldn't be able to talk to anyone?  :'(

Sunday August 25, 2024 | My dream on Saturday night August 24 | Hypnosis for selective mutism

-
I had a dream that I was in the hospital in Galveston Texas like the one I was in when I was 10 years old.  Working on getting rid of SM through hypnosis.  Is there a good hynosis therapist in Beaumont Texas who specializes in selective mutism?   I am determined to overcome selective mutism now or at least most of the way.  Some idiot told me that I won't be able to overcome SM entirely.  Ugh!  Or will I be able to overcome SM entirely?

Wednesday August 28, 2024 | Do parent's say this to their kids who have a disability? (the highlighted words in this blog)

-
Got this from copilot from the question I asked, " would people pleasing be an example of "you don't want to disappoint mom do you"? "   Is this true?   Sorry I had a flash back of my dad saying that question phrase that is highlighted in yellow.    (A phrase that my dad said to me when I was 3 and 4 years.)  Ah, the delicate dance between parental expectations and a child’s desire to please! 🕺🌼 Let’s waltz through this topic, shall we? “You don’t want to disappoint mom, do you?” —a phrase that can carry both love and a subtle weight. It’s like a mini emotional tug-of-war, with the child caught in the middle, clutching their teddy bear and pondering life’s mysteries.   Here’s the scoop: The Mom Guilt Tango : Parents often mean well when they say this. They want their child to succeed, be kind, and make them proud. It’s like they’re handing the child a bouquet of expectations, hoping they’ll bloom into the perfect little sunflower....

I knew this when I was 5 and no one had to tell me this. So is this really true? But because I have selective mutism, my learning challenging and people think that I am stupid. It is that communication thing that people think that I'm stupid. I know the highlighted and BIG LETTERS SOUNDS unreasonable, I just want to get across to people that I am anxious all the time! Do I have to start cursing for you people to hear me? I will. I know that BIG MOTHER OF ALL CURSE WORDS. I bet no one knew that did they? Actually, I got it from those kids at the hospital in Galveston when I was in the hospital back in 1984. So I knew about that word when I was about 9 or 10 years old. Actually when I was 4 years old I felt like I didn't belong because I was trying to tell myself how or where I got my selective mutism and I felt that way for a long time. Maybe my dad has ADHD? Perhaps my parents have ADHD and it somehow turns into autism in children? High-functioning Autism. I th...
