Trying to convince my wife that sex is more that 2 minutes, 52 seconds of squishing noises.
I have failed miserably

Accepting the cards that the Fates dealt out to me. I always felt in the past that I deserved to have more out of life. (more money, hot girlfriends, wider circle of friends, travel to exotic places, experience interesting things, etc) But, then I realized that the Fates put me where I am now for a apparent reason, and not all of us can have the advantages more privileged people have. At least maybe, not now at this time. I still have hope and personal faith that my luck will change for the better in the future, but I learned to enjoy and make do with what I have now.

I've always had to overcome feelings of insecurity and inadequacy. I've got a doctorate, I'm married to a wonderful man, but I can't help but think I don't deserve any of it. One of the ways I cope is by creating things I can look at and say to myself, "Not many other people could do that."

my biggest struggle was my eating disorder, aneroxeia. i had to be hospitalized for 1 month and in an outpatient facility for another month. it was a really really hard time for me and it is still a sruggle for me everyday but to cope with it just try to live as normal as possible and do normal teenage things and get my mind off of the "flaws" of my body.

Declaring my father incompetent and placing him in a nursing home.
I never wanted to do that...I always wanted to care for my own family.
My parents lived together, and my mother was trying to care for him. He has dementia, and could no longer care for his safety. He was always falling.
My mother's health declined during this time due to trying to pick him up from falls and caring for him.
We tried home health care, but he refused assistance and kept canceling.
When the emergency room visits became weekly, we made the decision that he could no longer care for himself and was endangering the life of my mother.
My sister and I nearly lost our jobs as well due to constantly needing to take time off. It was an awful experience.
My dad is doing well now...he has gained weight and has adjusted to his new place.
My mother is moving from their big house to a senior living apartment next door. They have assisted living available if she needs it. She has already made a lot of friends and picked new furniture.
How did I cope? Well, not well at first--went to a therapist and became a bit of a workaholic.
Doing better now...and starting to enjoy life again myself.

To harm a person.
To setup a person's life to earn my luxuries prospective life. To betray or turn over the table toward my benefactor.
No way, men!

Trying to get plastic cling wrap not to cling to itself as I unroll it. After years of counselling, I was able to break my cling wrap addiction and I switched to aluminum foil. I have been cling wrap free for 2 years now.
