I had high hopes for my mental health drop-in today and seeing the woman i had hoped to befriend. But i found it so unpleasant and overwhelming there that i only stayed a few minutes and fled. The woman and i had very little to say to each other. Disappointing.

I had such a heavy heart i cried when i got home, and i only cry a few times a year. Luckily, i felt BETTER after i cried. I thought of how proud i am of my independence and how if i want to leave situations, i do so, no negotiating, no compromise. When i was married my ex-husband would insist on staying places for six hours or more and i'd be desperate to leave. Now: i just leave!
