Fix my teeth (read all 19 entries…)
Finally free! 5 months ago

I got my braces off a few months ago, and it felt GREAT! I have the retainers I have to wear at night, but that’s so much better than having the metal on my teeth.

Here’s the only thing I don’t like about my teeth now: my front tooth is a different color than the rest of my teeth. I had a root canal in that tooth a long time ago, and it’s really changed in color. I’m working on getting it white so my smile will be what I want it to be.

I’m also thinking of getting gingival contouring, but that’s a whole new can of worms. Something to think about though.

6 months 5 months ago

Hi all! It’s been 6 months since I wrote anything on here. Do any of you even remember me? The last 6 months have been quite a ride. I’ve been taking Lamictal for about a year now, and it’s really working well for me. In August (or was it September?) I felt myself slipping, so I checked myself into the stress center, and took several weeks off work. I think that was probably the best thing I’ve ever done. I recognized the situation and took care of it.

I was seeing my therapist every week for quite a while, but I’m down to once every 4 weeks, and that feels really good. I can’t believe the progress I’ve made in the past year. My doctor and by therapist both say I’m doing great, and I agree!

A year ago I had a turning point, and I’m a different person now. It feels good to feel good. :)
