Here it comes.

My concentration is going. I can't watch my show to distract me. I tried four times. My thoughts are starting to go faster and circles. Can't stop crying.... can't read long posts....

Just when I was doing a bit better

Please excuse me if I disappear a bit, if I can't read I can't post.

Been there. It's ok if you feel the need to disappear for a bit. Get it. Music maybe?
Thanks for this!

sometimes i sit, close my eyes, and think of the color white, a white room with a door on either side of my mind. Focus on the white and try to watch you thoughts come in one door and out the other. It sounds silly but for me my thoughts slow way down to almost non existent because i'm trying to maintain the white background. I gives me a little break for a while

Google Paul Collier. He has videos and music on You Tube. Very relaxing. I don't watch the videos so much, but I like the music. I can listen and work a puzzle which is almost like sitting still.

Doing a little better still. Was able to watch my show sort of last night. Was watching my show, cheking facebook, looking at funny pictures on failblog, and playing bubble blaster all at the same time! >.> But I remember most of what happened in the show.

But my husband had us go to bed at 9:00. It took me about an hour but I did finally fall asleep and even though I kept waking up I did sleep some and that really helped. I'm feeling more distant and distracted still, but better. The need to pace and rock are gone but thoughts still jumping around.

So we're going shopping later and now I'm getting really excited. You know, I feel like a puppy when You say the word walk.... Because I hate shopping but I like going out as a whole family with kids and husband. I love family events. But then on Thursday my work is throwing me a shower and I thought barely anyone would come because I'm not generally a popular person. But earlier this lady came from the upstairs office to say that she was sent down by "lots of people" to find out what I need. O.O Not expecting this, making me nervous. I always feel nervous when people do nice things for me. Especially people I don't know well. It makes me wonder "why are they being so nice???"

And next week the whole office is having a cookie party but you can't eat cookies unless you bring cookies (which I always think is selfish for people because not everyone can afford it so why leave them out?? And like every year there are like 200 cookies!) and I really like cookies... so I hope I can brign some. And then on Friday my department is having a holiday party lunch. O.O Ack!

So yeah. I think I'm not going to slow down today.... Maybe tomorrow.
