Thursday July 16, 2026 | Write a memory you associate with a car.

-
I remember a time when my grandma and I were on our way to pick up my sister and aunt from school. I ran out of the house to her car, shouting, “I’ll drive, Granmaw!” She’s told me that story countless times. I wish I knew what happened to me when I developed selective mutism. I think I was speaking a little when I was 2 or 3 years old.  

In June 1992, I was in a car accident. All I saw coming toward my dad’s van was a big yellow Penske moving truck. I tumbled inside the van and ended up the most injured, with a ruptured spleen. I still have nightmares about it to this day. I haven’t woken up screaming in a while, but I will tell you when it happens again. Could my waking up screaming be from that accident?  Could it be trauma related, or anxiety related or is it normal?

This sounds familiar that I have done when I was younger.  The last time was pretty recent.  But the worst one was in 2014 before the hospital in Houston at Cypress Creek.  People who have selective mutism and autism do this when they are mad.  It comes from frustration and not being able to physically speak.  This is the reason for me saying that I could have mild autism or even asperger's.

On Saturday I had a little fall in the shower accident. It felt like I was in the accident all over again. I was having flash backs of that day of the accident in the van.  All I saw was this BIG yellow moving truck coming towards us and the next thing I knew I was or me my mom and dad were piled on top of one another. That whole accident was scary.  I cried as I was crawling out of the winsheild of the van. I wanted to beat that guy up that hit us and I would too! Well I got a settlement out of it!    I tried to be cool and swing around the shower door and grab my towel and........... I went down.  I tried to stay calm.  At the same time I was running out of blood pressure medication.  Ugh!  Here is what I did. I had 1 pill and a half left.  I switched Saturday's with Sunday's and I took hydroxzine too I knew I was going shopping on Sunday with Jason.   It hurts to fart. It hurts to burp. It hurts to hiccup. It hurts to stretch and...

Friday July 12, 2024 | Journal prompt from Copilot | AJ

Please be cautious because I am about to talk about AJ. Don't worry. It's all good.  No, I do not judge people and the way that they act or don't act. I think I screwed that up didn't I?  Anyway, here goes.   Write about a person who has significantly influenced your life. How have their words or actions shaped you? If you could say anything to them right now, what would it be ? Aj had significantly influenced me in alot of ways. He was there for me in my darkest days and I was there for him too.  He says he helped me through a depression and I tried to help him when he was in a depression state.  That last time he came back to me, he told me encouraging things that I can do. He was just a friend to me. The flowers and candy were to teach me how to love and care for myself.   I knew as well as he knew that I couldn't just run off and do things on my own.  I have selective mutism and the courts are involed.  The courts just want to make sure t...
