Post-Traumatic Gym Locker Disorder

I've discovered that a few of us from my high school suffer from post-traumatic gym locker disorder - meaning we still have nightmares that we have forgotten our gym locker combination. Clearly this was an extremely common and stressful problem in my high school. I believe the reason why was because we only had gym class once every three days (which in itself was hard to keep track of), so it was easy to forget your gym locker combination - especially after winter break. To make things worse, if you did forget your gym locker combination and had to go get it from the gym teacher, chances were high that it would make you late to gym class and generally they had no mercy for that kind of thing.

So imagine my distress when I found out at work that the only legitimate place to store food now is in a locker out in the hallway. Oh, what trauma I went through. I even had the gym locker dream again. I haven't had too much trouble though - it turns out that I use the locker every day, and have the combination posted at my desk. The new trouble I'm having (which also brings back traumatic memories) is forgetting to take home the remains of my lunch at the end of each day. One time in junior high my locker partner (bless her soul, if you are reading this JM I am SO SORRY) got fed up with all the bags of moldy half-eaten sandwiches in the bottom of our locker and cleaned them all out. Then she left the moldiest one on top with a note saying "The Secret Locker Cleaner Has Been Here" and never told me it was her that actually did it. Or maybe she did tell me, since somehow I now know that it was her. Anyhow I don't know how she put up with all that disgustingness. I am trying very hard to be a new and better person now but it is very very hard. I forgot my lunch three days in a row last week but did manage to take it all home on Friday, so that counts for something right?

I was married at 32 and immediately tried to get pregnant. When I was unable to conceive I had blood tests for fertility and was told that I had an FSH (follicle stimulating hormone) of 54 and would not be able to have children. Even though the doctors knew that I had been diagnosed with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis since age 25, no one bothered to check my thyroid levels. my TSH was measured at .001. My Synthroid dosage was lowered. a friend advise me to contact a spiritualist who help with fertility with his medicine, i collected his contact and explain my situation to him he prepared for me a herbal medicine which i took as describe by him. became pregnant very quickly, I had a successful pregnancy.
