Quorrah

I am, obviously, new to this and have not been on an INFJ list before. I think it might be fun.

I've studied psychology, human services, and computer stuff.

I like to write, read, watch movies, pet my cat, and swim.

I believe in God and would like to attend church.

Biography
Born in 1970 in RI. Very topsy-turvy growing up. Left very early out of necessity for myself.

Had a marriage and child when 17 and 18, respectively. Ended up hiding in a shelter w/my son. Got a place.

Had another bad relationship--one in many. Had another child, a girl this time. Was unable to have more children at this point due to complications w/both pregnancies. Got out of relationship. Lots of alcohol and drugs in between pregnancies and when the kids weren't home. Illegal activities--a LOT of acting out, I didn't know what it meant at the time.

Got married again. Another bad marriage. Became ill and I didn't know what was wrong, was in a wheelchair, mostly. Husband looked elsewhere for companionship and my children had major issues that involved counselling, DCF, etc. I was too sick to care for the children. Left husband, lost everything. Ended up in and out of the hospital.

Lived in a dual diagnosis program and my children were w/their fathers--that's a whole other, very long story. Got out of the program and had my own apartment and I found a job in the field I had been studying.

I enjoy working w/people. I still work at the transitional living program for single moms and their kids. I still live in the same building. My children are back in my life and my daughter is moving in w/me again in order to attend the local college, then she wants to continue in psychology. She wants to be a school psychologist. My son likes animals but I'm not sure where his life will take him b/c he's impaired.

I have a boyfriend that I've been w/for 5 years. Since my earlier wheelchair-illness, I've received a lot of diagnoses. The most troublesome being Diabetes (peripheral neuropathy sucks) and Demyelinating Disease/MS. Currently, I am trying to decide if I need to live in assisted living which would affect my boyfriend and daughter a lot. I will be talking w/a mobility specialist and a human services specialist that will be coming to my home soon to help me decide what's best for me and to ascertain which electric wheelchair would be best. I am a bit scared.

Hopefully this will be a good place where I can find some peace, understanding, and maybe even some good information!
