Good lands today was better! I was still a little sad but things went very well volunteering! Most everyone participated in either painting the ornaments we made last week or making Christmas card! It was the Christmas party for the recovery support center so they had a good time. They invited me to eat lunch with them so I did. (To be honest I didn't have any money to eat lunch so it worked out!!) they made the clients cakes and peanut butter balls to enjoy too!

A sweet client gave me a card and I got a few hugs from others. Sweet. I feel accepted. One of the peer Support specialists is very sweet. We are together and chatted. We have SO much in common!!!!!! She makes scarves and gave me a beautiful burnt orange one.

I felt the love today. I truly believe those who have mental illness are more compassionate.

Anyway, today was better. My t works at that center too so I saw her
Today. At our session Thursday she is bringing hot chocolate for us and I am bringing cookies. She got a simple craft for us to do too. It's going to be a laid back session. Wednesday marks a year since I was very suicidal last year and police and ambulance came to my house after the crisis line called them. She wants to process it and get through it peacefully. I appreciate my t so much!
