Hello fello rockers & rocketts!!! I just wanted to thank everyone for sharing! I am not sure where to start, so I will just say I recognized myself as a rocker last night.( July/2014) That is how I found this wonderful site! I have yet to ask family members if they ever noticed me doing this.
After realizing I was "rocking" last night, I started to think about when I actually rocked. I have enough clarity now to say I have always been a rocker! I have rocked myself to sleep in some shape or form most of my life. Sometimes even envisioning myself on a swing or on a raft swaying/floating on rocking waves, or suffer from bouts of insomnia.
The last 7 months of my life have been, shall I say, "eventful". I am in a stage of recovery from addiction to medications (yep, more than one) and an outright nervous breakdown. What I refer to as my " M&M."(Mental Meltdown) I have even found my own sense of humor during this recovery time, and realize sometimes I need to laugh, life does have it's funny moments. I have spent the last 43 years taking life and myself way too serious. Over analyzing everything to an extreme. No wonder my mind took a much needed hiatus. Life with me and my own mind was totally overwhelming to say the least.
Like many here have stated, I too have a connection with music and other forms of creativeness. For me music is always related to memories, experiences, or points in my life. I can hear a song from my very early years to current and tell you approximately what year it was and events happening at the time, both personal and social . I now wonder if anyone else does this as well?
I could continue to relate to multiple posts on here, but I really just wanted to reach out and say hello to you kindred spirits. I am thankful and truly blessed to have found y'all.
