Poetic,

I'm glad you posted that link. I did the first meditation and really enjoyed it.

Hooray! 47 million of food stamps…maybe we can hit 100 million before the end of Obama's next term.

Shineme,

Telogen effluvium can be caused by many things in addition to stress. It can happen from many medications. Going on or off birth control pills can cause the problem. It is also common in thyroid disease. (Make sure your doctor does a full thyroid panel and not just a TSH test.) Post pregnancy is another common time for hair loss, as is menopause. In addition, there is a little known fact that humans beings have a shedding season, people tend to shed more hair in the fall than at any other time.

Good Luck

How do you know your sexual orientation?

I’m not being called to adopt. That doesn’t mean my children weren’t really wanted.

Hmm Interesting, maybe the universe is asking all those women that can’t find the right guy how much they really want a partner-enough to take a dip in the lady pond-or is it just a man they want?

There’s nothing I can really do about it that I haven’t already done. I had wanted to have children by now but I kept miscarrying. I did everything I could to ensure a healthy pregnancy but miscarried anyway. I try to focus on other things but that emptiness surfaces occasionally.

Hi Captain,

I think you are right. I have a lot of unexpressed emotion in me. I tend to hold it all in until it literally leaks out. Then I’ll end up crying over a sappy commercial or a song on the radio. I haven’t felt physically well the past several days so I think that has a lot to do with my emotional state

.

I guess I feel frustrated and sad about my life. It’s not what I wanted it to be but I try to appreciate what I do have. Although lately, I’m just feeling terribly empty.

Hi Captain,

I started the day by answering a 7:00 am call about a business situation that was really upsetting. I just feel like I have a black cloud hanging over my head today. I even managed to accidentally break a lamp. This work thing seems to be a recurring theme in my life. When I do well, others feel threatened and try to sabotage me. I'm just sick of it. I'm usually an optimistic person but I'm just not feeling it today. I want to cry but it feels like too much effort.

I am having the worst day today. I feel I'm going to break down any minute. If someone could give me a reading, I'd appreciate it.
