NOAH AOC

Boy do I have a lot to blog about - but I can't right now. Because of everything going on with me, I just wanted to post quickly to let you all know I'm okay. I had a very rough day yesterday. We had an HPS board call last night, and then I went to bed. I was up several times in the night feeling...

A friend told me today that depression can make you cranky – boy does that explain a lot.

My computer has been acting up again, and while I love my laptop, I’ve discovered it’s not ideal for marathon computer sessions...

Do you know why they have control groups in drug trials? Because sometimes just doing something is therapy in and of its self. Sometimes patients improve just because they think they’re going to improve. It isn’t because they’re wacky. They’re just humans trying to survive. If this was something rare...
