I thought for sure that I would have a BAD weekend. I actually planned on it--I was tired of not having the right support and skills for everything I think about and going on. I wanted to feel pain--to do something to myself. I didn't want to cut, but it did come to mind. Instead, I decided to make a reservation and get a hotel room for Saturady night and take a handful of OTC's for some, um, purging-type activity. I left my T voice mails prior, and in my final one I admitted that what I was going to do this weekend involved OTC's. I also mentioned that there will always be a need for people like him, he will always have a job, because people are nuts--we would rather use physical pain to distract and deal with something mental or emotional. I won't want to actually tell T exactly what kind of OTC product, but I will tell him what it was not. He does pretty good working around things, but still getting to the subject. I love him for that. It really makes it easier and gives me the chance to build up the ability to say certain things on my own. Anyway,k I feel pretty good today. I didn't let myself have a bad weekend despite what I did. I went to bed early and slept in, I did a little personal pampering. I actually feel like doing something responsible, like maybe finally getting the brakes looked at on my car! Hmm, maybe a car wash and oil change, too! I feel like leaving my T a thank you voice mail today, but I'm not sure what exactly for. Maybe just to let him know that I am ok? I will try to avoid that and give him "the day off" . I see him tomorrow night anyway. Wishing you all bright, sunny skies and may summer please come quickly!

I'm so glad that you're ok. It's funny how awful we can feel one day and the next day seems a thousand times better!

I know on days when I've taken stuff and I pulled through the night, the next day always has seemed to be pretty good.

Hang in there!

Always you are in my heart! Keep going sweetie!
