...and go!

i titled this blog 'beneath the icing' for one of my favorite songs ever jumper by third eye blind. there's this line "icing over a secret pain", and this is going to be me writing about my secret pain.....so the title really clicks for me. 

you'll notice i'm not capitalizing anything...and to warn you, i never will. i like typing in all lowercase. if you can't deal with it, then don't read.  

i just wanna put a few things out there, for whatever readers may come across this. first, even though i'm going to be writing about my pain, i'm not emo. and i hate whining. this isn't to whine. its to vent. letting it out so that i can move on, and put that smile back on my face. second, everything i am going to write is the absolute truth as i see it, the only thing fictional would be names that i will change to protect identities. and lastly, i'm making all of this public not because i hope someone will discover it and make me famous but because i want to help people who are going through what i'm going through know that they're not alone.

welcome to my madness
