Every Friday 12pm EST.
My name is Toby and I was just recently diagnosed with OCD, ADHD, and PTSD.
These entries are the journey through my life pre and post therapy, what that was like, and how different things are now I’ve sought help. I will also be including strange tales and unique experiences to help better get to know me and to get a hearty chuckle.
I mostly hope to inspire people who need help as I did to seek it and how much better things can be for not only yourself, but those who love and worry about you.
This is a safe space of stories, thank you for being here, I’m still recording
Hello and welcome!
In today’s entry, I discuss some of the things I grew up with that contributed to some of my trauma.
My 7 foot martial art master brothers, black limousines pulling up with mob bosses inside, the shotgun marriage to my step father and a bit more.
Have a seat and listen to why I’m such a silly goose.

Entry #15 (True Crime)
WARNING ⚠️
This entry features topics some may find disturbing and disconcerting including loss of life and violence, listener discretion advised.
Today’s entry is something very different, today I wanted to recount one of the biggest murder mysteries that ever took place in my small town, this month marking its 68th anniversary.
Come as I recount for you, the murders of Gettis and Merrill Lee.
I hope you enjoy the change despite the much shorter duration, I wanted to still provide a good, if not flawed, cast.

Entry # 12
Pardon my lateness,
I go over what’s been new and how my hours have been a little different. How my brain has felt a bit off and I’ve been unsure because now when I’m at home, I’ve been falling asleep a lot lately because of the new hours and how that goes against my initial excitement for the new hours because I’d get more time with Lucy.
But it’s been a little tough…
