Hi jinnyann, if you feel like being alone, maybe you can turn it into a positive. Sometimes, we need to be alone to recharge our batteries and to take care of ourself. Don't beat yourself up for not getting out of the house. Maybe you can take a nap and get some much needed sleep, write about your feelings, take a long bath...maybe pamper yourself with peace and quite. Sometimes, it is okay to be in our comfort zone. You have a lot going on right now and maybe it is okay to be there...know what I mean?

At one time I truly dreaded therapy, but now I just find it to be a bit annoying--I'd rather be doing other things with my time--sometimes it feels like a relief and sometimes it just feels like work--occasionally, it feels kinda good.

Sometimes I wonder if I am going to ever "get better" or feel good...during those times, I try to remember the positive moments in my life and have faith that I can make them grow. Just last night in therapy I was talking about my frustration about not getting better--I wanted to just fix myself so I could move on. My therapist assured me I can get better, I have already gotten better, but I can never go back and fix things...this will always be a part of my life, but I can learn to manage it and be happy.

Hang in there--hey, at least you got the cleaning done, there are days I can't even do that.
