Yes, agreed. For starters, I do not own a TV. That takes care of a lot of it right there. After that, I rarely read the newspapers or listen to a station on the radio that has news. I am very limited on FB, like if someone does not send it to me that I trust, I rarely look at it. I do not look at my newsfeed, for instance.
Everyone on this site has been nice to me and I am so grateful for that. On another site, not so. I have limited my activities on that site by about 80% since that happened. And I am ready to leave it altogether, should something of the sort come up again.
As to honesty with my pdoc, doing the best I can with that. With my therapist too. They have commended me for knowing when I am in crisis and asking for help immediately. Everyone who takes care of me is being so good to me!
