Sensitive content
The following is a file drop from years of disparate notes. At launch this will be an animated timeline. My hope is that this will help unify the team “up top”. The end goal of this project is for everything to be made available to anyone curious. Verity Forge is an experiment in radical transparency. That being said move forward with respect and caution. There is no “PR polish” to the contents or organization.
Todo
- Add current perspective on each note
- add rtx for scroll affects
- PR polish (most sensitive articles in “NSFW” container (lol, not like that). Possible user sign in required)
Attempted Timeline 07/01/2025
In the fall of 2023 I began to feel the warning signs that historically had lead to sudden hospitalization & stepped down from my management position at Pearle Vision in order to focus on my Apprenticeship and lessen the scope of my responsibilities
This bought me time, but I still ended up on PFML in the spring of last year and started intensive medication pans with various doctors
I had a sense that this was my last chance to get a handle on my condition. Each crash was progressively worse and came with additional permanent side affects.
New doctor diagnosed me with ADHD and medication finally made a difference, but came with it’s own unique challenges
- You’ll see a trend in support groups for folks with ADHD where they report the freeing and life changing affect ADHD medication made in their life
- Equally, you’ll find numerous reports of how this only highlighted the extent that other underlying comorbid conditions may play in the patients life.
- “Like putting on glasses for the first time, it was made clear how much I missed in spite of near constant attention”
The Psychiatrist treating my ADHD made CPTSD a clear candidate for the source of unresolved issues
- This felt right, but the treatment options presented and her understanding of what I was trying to report felt off

Misc. Proud 'O Resume June
Only a few months ago, I found navigating Discord or OneNote to be an arduous task. At times, the threshold required to navigate Google felt impossible. A lot more than tech felt impossible. It may have taken a couple of days to finish <Link Resume>, but I am so proud of the outcome. It is far from the “perfect” copy of what I see in my minds eye, but every single word, graphic, and icon is a reflection of incredible cognitive recovery.
YouI MADE something. And it now lives as a marker I can look back on. <LOL, “like a tattoo”, I got a sense of. Made me chuckle> Not to mention I need to get the job hunt moving…Todo

LVM "Feeling Overwhelmed" w/ Manda 06/30/2025
LVM For Manda; Was feeling overwhelmed and left a tearful message. Made clear I was not in crisis and was just looking for reassurance that I’m doing everything I can. Told her I did not need a call back necessarily and the act of leaving the voicemail was all I needed. It’s been really hard making everything happen, and that not translating to actionable differences was really wearing on me
- Found a Dr. appt for Thursday on the phone call immediately after
CC Workforce June?
