Welcome to the Couch! People of PC Psychotherapy (Part 2)

No t this week now so I've come to hang out here and listen to you guys singing about Lola. Whatever shall I do with my week?

(((wikid))) sorry to here about your day going down hill

You can play arm chair quarterback with me and Lucy....

WdP, that sucks. I'm really sorry to hear this.

So THAT'S why it was like it came out of the blue! I don't know if I wanna say, why didn't he just SAY so? But then none of this would have come up for you. I commend you on dealing with it immediately. I finally confronted T on something he said A WHOLE YEAR AGO, like to the day! After I dress down Towanda for the same thing, nice of me, eh? I'd like to know if your T went thru as much grief as you did - att least then it would have REALLY been worth it! What is this mean streak I have going lately???

Wikid, I am sorry to hear about your daughter. I am sorry you can't see T for that long.

Ya know, it's all good. I've taken a breath. At least I know I can't give in to the urge to call him...well kind of. And my daughter will be ok. At least I have the resources to take care of her, a lot of folks don't have that.

Hubby and I just had an all out fight and I had a total meltdown to the point where I was not able to stop pacing the floors for quite some time and then once I did-I fell to the floor and couldn't pick myself back up. He said that he is down, and that I have been doing nothing but kicking him when he is down. I told him I am just in fix it mode, that he wouldn't apply for jobs so that's why I started doing it for him. He told me I have been too demanding, too negative and then the only time I speak to him is when I tell him to do something job related. His sister told me he really shuts down under pressure, doesn't do well with it and needs a lot of encouragement. Okay, fine. Guess I am a condescending B I T C H cause all I can think about is how we are going to get out of this mess instead of giving him pats on the back telling him we will get out of it. I really need my T and I can't go. I have never been in this bad of shape before. Everyday I feel like I'm slipping further down a hole and the light is burning out.

trying can you at least use some crisis lines to have someone to talk to.it must me so so hard for you right now.

pleas don't fall for all that crap about kicking him when he is down it seems to me what he wants is for you to tell him it is OK to do nothing about his situation and to feel bad for his depression. it isn't OK for him to do nothing and you know that .yes you can feel empathetic to him but it is sure a lot easier to feel bad and supportive if he is trying to fix it even if unsuccessfully if it is his best it makes a difference

I bet you can, too!

Good morning. Anyone on the couch? I have my coffee and refrigerator oatmeal here.

morning all.
(((TTGB))) Financial pressures can wreak havoc in a marriage. Please try to care for yourself in all of this. Can you at least call T? You really need the support right now.

I am curled up in my chair with my 40lb dog laying across my lap. I have my laptop rested on top of her. Trying to figure out how to reach my coffee cup that is sitting on the end table.

Did you watch Dogs in the City last night? the two little boys that Oreo owned were so CUTE!!! And the bulldog in the pink tutu poor thing!

felt like gravity got turned waaaay up on my run today .... slow and heavy feeling, so I'm feel like crashing on the couch for a while now. whew, exhausted .... what a busy few days!

*yawn* Morning folks. I'm sitting here with my chocolate milk and greasy egg biscuit.

I have my 3rd session later this afternoon. I'm nervous and happy at the same time!

yes. that poor bulldog. I hate when people treat these beautiful majestic creatures like rag dolls.

*** Trigger for accident****



Sorry, to be the sad poster this morning. I am just in shock and not sure I can drive my car to work right now. I was just told one of our volunteers was killed in an accident last night. I am in udder shock and just sitting here shaking. I have t this afternoon....thank goodness. I can't even feel right now....

((((sconnie)))) That's awful...i am so sorry.

OMGosh sconnie, thats horrible. *hugs*

(((((sconnie))))), I am sorry to hear that, if you need to talk we are here.

I awoke last night with a wicked ear ache.....

Ewwww factor - I am dripping clear liquid, with a little blood and I pulled some skin out of my ear with a qtip this morning. My entire right side of my face hurts...my jaw, head, ear and even teeth, so doctor at 10:40. infection or busted ear drum...either way this suckkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkksssssssssssssss

((((sconnie)))) I'm so glad you have t today so you can feel supported and hopefully find a bit of comfort.

Yikes Lola, what did the doctor say

Sconnie...sorry to hear about your volunteer. I would be shaken up also.

Lola...ouch! Let us know what the doctor says.

I see T at 2:00. That's a very different time for me. I don't know if today will be the day for me to break down; I have to come back to work afterwards. I'm a bit nervous.

Chopin...have you ever read this article?

How to cry in therapy

I read it some time ago...took me a while to relocate it, but I hope you enjoy it.

sconnie wow i am so sorry i hope you are ok.

lola there is no greater pain then an earache.i use to get them often as a child probibly do to getting hit in the ear a lot but i got one once as an adult and GMG not fun you just cant do anything to get away from it

good luck with your session chopin i have been keeping up with your posts but dont know what to say .you are just working so hard but i am following and thinking about you

I agree Granite - ear infection and its the most painful thing I have ever experienced.... turns out your ear can make your face hurt down to your teeth...... numbing drops and antibiotics.... I just want to cut it out!

Good Luck Heather, hope all goes well.

Granite

wow doc didnt give you anything for the pain.wow i would have demanded something i doubt numbing drops are going to help much with the pain unless you have it on a constant drip
