I've been taking 25mg of Seroquel to sleep and I sleep very well. Of course, I want to keep sleeping, which is so darn annoying. But 12.5mg doesn't do anything. I'm not taking the Seroquel every night, though. I find that on some nights the hangover effect is so strong that I can sleep the next night, too.
As for Mary - I'm determined to move through this rapidly. You know, the first long-term therapist I had, we had a terrific relationship and he had his act together very well. This was through the Veteran's Admin. I was in therapy with him for 6 years and really did hard work that paid off well. I've mentioned this here before...he had to suddenly, with only 24 hour notice, leave his location because he got stationed somewhere else. The last session I had with him was that he was leaving immediately. And that was how my therapy ended. It was devastating.
I didn't see another one-on-one T for 26 years, until I started therapy with Mary. Apparently, my track record with ending therapy is less than fabulous. I know I need a therapist. I am tempted to call today and make an appointment. But then I think...should I? Maybe not. Both times, long-term therapy wound up with me being badly burned and traumatized. I'm asking myself what I really want from therapy, and is it worth all the stress that therapy dumps in my lap?
Anyway, whatever direction this takes I am willing myself to get Mary out of my mind, in the past, and move on.
So kids, it's going to be freaking 101 degrees today and 106 tomorrow. David was going to go golfing with his older brother and their nephews, but his brother cancelled because of the heat (his bro is 83). David is disappointed, though, he loves really hot weather.
Low of only 70 tonight, my bedroom is going to be HOT. A/c and fans. Cats that are puddles.

Lighten up while you still can, don't even try to understand,
Just find a place to make your stand and take it easy."
