Anxiety and Mental Disorders

Ever have one of those days when you wake up in the morning and just KNOW it's going to be a bad day? You wake up angry or irritated because of something and it's enough to ruin the whole day even though it hasn't even started yet.

I had a day like that recently. I woke up not angry but mad at my wife and family. What did they do? Absolutely nothing! I just knew however that from the moment my feet would hit the floor, my day was shot. So taking a cue from Mr. medicine cabinet, I went in and retrieved by trusty Xanax pills.

Lying, cheating, and corporate business

So, being a interested individual in a certain technology, I invest into a start up business that promises to help law enforcement catch the bad guys. After 6 years of working with this company, I must say that the technology developed DOES help law enforcement identify potential criminals. The stock is also not listed in the Pink Sheets, a pseudo stock market for charlatans, renegades and companies that aren't sufficiently sophisticated enough to meet the rules and guidelines of the larger markets like NASDAQ.

Up until very recently, I thought my invested in company was one of the later. Turns out however that the president of the company stood up before the financial community and investors last month, looked them in the eye, and said that there were no plans for any reverse stock splits. Now for those who may not know, a reverse stock split is rarely any good for investors.

Within 30 days of this pronouncement to the very people who invested in the company, the president comes out publicity and states that a 1 for 50 stock split is going to happen. So much for integrity. So much for Fairness and consideration of all the investors who have trusted in the management of the company. Thank you Locate Plus! I'm certain that many smaller investors will be encouraging the Securities and Exchange commission to look into insider trading anomalies.

Freedom to be Me

When someone you love decides to move away, the feeling of emptiness can sometimes overwhelm. Those of us who are parents seem to get the mixed feelings of everything all at once. These feelings are tied into the fact that our kids, although now adults, are still considered our kids. We don't really see them as adults but as big people that happen to be our kids. All grow'd UP but still our kids.

There's sometimes the feeling of relief when a grown child finally gets the heck out of the basement. Or the feeling of remorse in not having spent enough time with them when they were younger. Or a feeling of happiness when you realize the freedom of not being responsible for another person. Parents spend so much of our time caring for our kids that we sometimes forget what it was once like….. being free.
