About This Author
Guten tag! My name is Jessica and I'm 19 years old. I obviously love to write; I have been writing since I was six years old, but I became an avid writer in sixth grade. I also love listening to music and studying history. I am obsessed with Civil War, World War II, Russian, Romanov, German, and Norweigan history. I listen to mostly metal, some country, and grunge.

Thankful Thursday 1/1/2015
Happy New Year! Today starts a new book of my life and I'm glad about that. Although today starts a new book of my life, I have things to be thankful for on this first day of 2015. A few days ago I sent out my yearly newsletter for 2014. The newsletter turned out to be longer than I expected, but I was glad to hear from a few of the 50 people I sent the newsletter to (I expect to hear from more after the holidays). I had one friend in college that was in a near fatal car accident. Well, she had the accident before I started college and before I knew her. My aunt works with her father at an elementary school and my aunt introduced us in 2010 (two years after the accident). Although we didn't always get along and her mother hated me, we still kept in touch somewhat. It was odd that I hadn't heard from her since July 2014.

She replied to my newsletter and said she's been having seizures since June 2014. I am guessing those seizures are coming as a result of her accident, even though the accident was in 2008. She was saying she was having issues with the anti-seizure medication. When I was still diagnosed as bipolar, I took Lamictal - an anti-seizure medication used to treat mania of bipolar disorder. That stuff made me miserable. I sympathized with her. For me, getting off of psych meds were a saving grace. I am much healthier now and my thyroid is finally back under control. I am thankful for my health and I can't wait on improving my health even more in 2015!
