How appropriate is this, WOW!!

Actually, this Thursday I sat on the floor. For the first time EVERRRRRRRR.
I got out of my wheelchair (abnormal in itself, I use a manual wheelchair and am very mobile and it is easy to get out of my chair, but I don't do it normally) and sat on the floor, waiting for my therapist to show up. I was just so exhausted and it felt safer and more grounded. I am emotionally and physically exhausted and was crying and just decided it was better to be curled up on the floor then to pretend to be okay. It was so weird. She actually sat down beside me (not even looking directly AT me) for the entire session and we did the session that way. It was so surreal and yet awesome... It may have just been my emotional state for the session, but she seemed to be a lot more supportive than normal (and I have always liked my T and the way she does stuff).

Apparently she found the floor too hard though so close to the end she got up, got her coat and sat on it on the floor. LOL! I'm so used to sitting in a wheelchair all day, that a change of pace is actually really cool -- being able to be a "normal" non-disabled person for once.

I would totally do it again, but I may not if it didn't seem right. It worked for me this week though.
