Welcome to the couch! People of PC Psychotherapy

Wow...I walked into the room and it's empty!

Hello...ello...ello...ello...ello...

Are they done fumigating already? (i was gonna come in here with my gas mask on, but I can't find the smilie! It's the thought that counts, right?)

Im here ...driving home tomorrow, cant wait

Wow- I got super busy yesterday and didn't have any time to take a seat on the couch. Today is much lighter. T at 9am then I'm off work today. What's everyone else up to?

Ill be Driving...

I'm "working" at the office for most of today. Ever since coming back to work I just have a lack of motivation to do any work even though its super busy and I have stuff to do. Good thing I have PC to distract me.

I am really unmotivated today. I need a kick up the *****. Flopping on the couch.

Watch out Nellie... Platform flop headed your way....

Im finally home, im gonna bathe... Be back.... Hope some one is here...anyine try the new app cinemagram?

LC - glad you made it safely home.
Cinemagram sounds like a cookie.

Thanks puupychow, its an animation app for photos... Its cool

The couch seems so lonley, latley... Is it the board in general or Just the couch?

I wondered the same thing.

I don't think it's just a couch thing. Maybe as the weather is getting nicer more people are going outside versus being on the computer.

I feel like for me it seems to be a lack of energy to start new threads. I at least try comment on others posts though alot of the times I feel lost.

I think I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed between work, my therapy work, and life in general. While I was very depressed, I spent more time here but as it's lifting, I'm spending more time with RL friends/family.

This morning, I'm lying in bed trying to get up on a rainy morning. I'm trying to remind myself feelings can lie. I'm fighting feeling that T actually thinks I'm just silly and annoying and she dreads my appointments and plasters a smile on her face and grins and bears it. It's an old thought pattern that I've had with many people.

Hope everyone is well....

Hope no one minds, but I am going to jump on the couch cushions to burn off this crazy amount of energy I have. I had a late meeting at work that left me a little wired....

Wouldn't mind the company or the opportunity to see that!

I'm a bit bouncy too right now as I have T in the morning and usually get restless beforehand. Probably should try wind down though and save some of that energy.

I'm in crisis. My husband got suspended with intent from his job. They are trying to say he stole "time" - in other words- messed with his logs and stuff . It's really bad. We have no savings. We barely are able pay the bills as it is. His union rep will schedule a work hearing next week... but things don't look good. Plus I'll loose T-because it's under his insurance that I'm able to see her. It's bad. Really bad.

I'm so sorry, TTGB.

So, I get to work at home today...yay...PJ's all day, but I have a LOT to accomplish in a short amount of time. I'd better get to it. At least it's "graphic design" of sorts; creating a brochure and working on a corporate logo. Our company website went live two days ago. All really cool stuff!

Sconnie...I was wondering why the cushions were all out of place.

To everyone else, try and have a great day!

Thanks Chopin. And thanks for the hugs everyone else. I just can't believe it. I'm dumbfounded. Speechless. In shock. He is coming up on 10 years in working in his current position then he is vested and they have to match his funds. I wonder if they are just picking with him. He is going to get a labor attorney. We seriously can't afford to miss a dollar out of either of our pays. He will be out for at least a week till his work hearing. I'm just beside myself. Totally beside myself. I told him to start looking for a job NOW and not wait until the outcome. Like he needs to get on the ball. I am just...just....just.....totally lost. I don't know what to do. I am having a session with T tomorrow and the thought that it may be the last time I can see her for a while is just so...so...so...I don't even know. Its not like it was planned and there is time for closure. Or anything like that.

TTGB - it sounds like your in a hard predicament right now. Hopefully you can talk stuff over with your T tomorrow, maybe your T has a sliding scale or will be able to make some other arrangements that would allow you to have a few more sessions even if stuff doesn't go well for your H.

As stuff seems uncertain right now for you, is it possible to try explore all possible outcomes versus just looking at worse case senarios. It seems there is the possibility that your H will not lose his job in which case you would be putting yourself through a lot of undue stress right now. While you might not have any direct control over what happends with your H, can you focus on stuff you do have control over at the moment. Such as your session tomorrow, whether any free or low cost support is avaliable in your community, if in the worse case you are unable to see your T.

Please feel free to ignore if I am not being helpful. I just know sometimes we can get so caught up in the moment its hard to take a step back from the situation.

A major computer company I worked for, fired practically EVERYBODY right before they hit their 5-year vesting. Women managers, everybody, out the door, whoosh. Well, not everybody, obviously, but it leads me to believe you probably CAN get a better deal with an attorney, cos it's probably fishy on their end. Good luck!

Thank you. What you said does help and make a lot of sense. All of it is just so overwhelming and on Tuesday T and I opened a new can of worms focusing on something else. Had I known I would be in this predicament now- I would have never done that. But it's just not all about T. We are already very strapped for cash so it's very hard to not worry when your always just one paycheck away from being without.

hi was wondering if i can come sit on the couch with you all.

TTGB i'm sorry to hear about what is going on with hubby i went through something like that with my hubby GE bought out the company he had worked for for over 10 years and then fired everyone over the next few months he was one of the last people fired.the didnt want the people just the product they developed so they bought the company and fired all.put a new meaning to the saying GE bringing good things to life right.i hope things work out and he gets to keep his job and i bet your T will let you work something out to see her a few more times.
