For Sexual Abuse Survivors, Even the Doctor Can Feel Unsafe
After years of disassociation, our writer is figuring out her boundaries. I recently went to my annual visit with my gynecologist—like I have been for years. I am 49, and this should have felt like an ordinary and uneventful appointment. But it was different this time. I have recently confronted the truth about the sexual abuse I endured as a child and that acceptance has brought a new sensitivity to my own feelings. In short, after a lifetime of numbing disassociation, I am present.
Mi pasado doloroso creó arte nuevo
Hace dos años, empaqueté varios cuadros expresionistas abstractos de mi padre y los dejé con un puñado de artistas plásticos para que pintaran sobre ellos. Esta fue mi solución a un problema que me había acechado toda la vida. Nací en Manhattan en 1976. Antes de cumplir los 2 años, mi madre nos abandonó a mi padre y a mí para ser mánager de giras de una popular banda de folk, y nunca volvió como madre de tiempo completo.

Usé mi doloroso pasado para crear arte nuevo
MI PADRE ME TRATABA MÁS COMO A UNA ESPOSA QUE COMO A UNA HIJA. TARDÉ DÉCADAS EN AFRONTAR LA VERDAD DE LO OCURRIDO.

Painting Over My Painful Past
Two years ago, I packed up several of my father’s Abstract Expressionist paintings and dropped them off with a handful of visual artists to be painted over. This was my solution to a problem that had haunted me all my life. I was born in Manhattan in 1976. Before I was 2, my mother left my father and me to be a road manager for a popular folk band, and she never returned as a full-time mother. In her absence, I was raised by my father, an artist with a Brooklyn accent as thick as his beard.
Sustainable practices
When they have healthcare needs, a majority of Americans (58%) first seek care and counsel at their local pharmacy. As the reliance on pharmacies as healthcare hubs increases, so does the stress on pharmacists and pharmacy technicians. In addition to their duties, pharmacies are pivotal in fostering sustainable communities by integrating environmentally responsible practices into their operations.

Every day, millions of people rely on needles to administer much-needed medications at home. In fact, there are more than 7.5 billion needles and syringes used outside of the health care system each year, resulting in the accumulation of used sharps. The regular use of needles poses the challenge of disposing of them safely.
