September 30, 2021 13:00 - 14 minutes - 9.86 MBSo what is the true meaning of love? Is this something you have ever really considered or is love just love to you? Of course it is "just love", why would it be anything different? The difference is many people don't love themselves. Especially people from there LBGTQI+ community who have some of the largest statistics relating to addiction, suicide and hatred amongst the heterosexual community. It's the question I posed to you at the beginning of my journey discovering I'm int...

Entering Psychosis

March 18, 2021 08:00 - 13 minutes - 9.47 MBLiving with psychosis was the scariest and most spiritual of my life. It was also the loneliest of times. Lonely, because drugs are designed to be consumed with people, not alone, especially at the consumption level I was snorting up my nose.

Slithering massive snakes; paranoia of being watched - on social media, in the street, at the supermarket; Sex parties at my home, in hidden sex rooms I couldn’t find and suspic...
episode 6 - endocrinology
March 05, 2021 01:00 - 9 minutes - 6.35 MBI can’t believe I’m late for an appointment I was an hour early for. That’s so me at the moment. The late part, not the early. How could I have thought the location was opposite, when it was the 5th floor and there were no buildings five floors high opposite. I call the receptionist. We’ve got a history concerning unnecessary blood test repeats, so (sarcastically) I’m so looking forward to telling her I can’t find the place. She tells me “Down the road, towards Punt.”. “So is that li...

episode 4 - janine (little bubbie)
January 08, 2021 20:00 - 9 minutes - 6.71 MBOur first love will always hold a special part to our heart. It's through this connection that we first learn about intimacy and discover ways to make each other feel love.

It can take years to discover why we are different and for some it will take their life - either from old age or from suicide. Being different is part of me and I'm so proud of that fact, you have that right too. I don't wish to be like anybody else or to fit into a society that has problems fitting in with itself. Families sh...
