Hello, I am Regan (Raygan not Reegan). I am 47 and an old school hippie-punk Gen Xer who was raised in Seattle surrounding. I'm a gamer nerd type, very comfortable with computers and various software. I'm an avid pug rescuer/owner. Married.
I am new to Conquer Clinics, holding the position of Administrative Assistant. I started as a dietary aide in a convalescent center when I was 15, and steadily worked my way up to front office Medical Assistant. I have been working in this field for 32 years. I have found that Mental Health is a huge important aspect of my life.
I am a daughter and sister of alcoholics. I learned at an early age the delicate art of dancing with the changing mood swings. I have seen the division in deciding factors of a broken addicted family. I know the strain it can take on a person to be the only sober one in a family of five. I am not without faults; food is my addiction and comfort.
My favorite quote, "Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can." by Arthur Ashe. One day you're fine and the next you're not. It's a set back and not a roadblock. Wake up again, and start where you are. Use your tools you have. Do what you can without self judgement.
