I don't want to go to work today!! stomp stomp stomp I want to sit at my computer and write all day. I'm in a creative mood and work stifles that when it's as busy as it's been lately. Oh well. I'll write on my lunch break. That's something anyway.

My Psych tells me I have to work harder on my techniques to control my Anxiety. I hope he didn't charge me too much for the session cause I had kinda already worked that one out........

does anyone else feel like that - when the depression gets bad like you just need to run away somewhere?

I went to see my Psychiatrist today and as I was setting up my next appointment my Therapist saw me, she said hi but it did feel a bit awkward.

Oh yes, very much so. As long as I could go alone. That's why I can't do it.

So I'm a major stress ball right now at work ihad to sign a paper saying I am committed to aiming for some ridiculous sales quota it's not even a sales job dammit but I'm supposed to push on every call where an opportunity is available or else... Write ups, corrective action plan, then termination. I hate this. I do. Really really good job in every other area and I try to get sales but I apparently take no for an answer too easily . This sucks. I was sitting at my desk after they made me sign the paper pounding myself in the head. Now i have a headache on top of being so stressed I can't see straight. I hate being threatened for **** like this. Just needed to vent. I need to just shut up about it and find a new job. Again.

Omg yes. I went to Hawaii for my honeymoon with my husband (at the time...now ex-husband for several years). We had already been married for several months however and it already was going poorly...I SO wanted to be there by myself. I remember when he rented us a double sea kayak (vs. singles) and we had to try and maneuver it together. Talk about lack of teamwork skills...we were so doomed. Anyway, I wanted to be there alone then and have always wanted to go back alone ever since!!

I need a flu shot as well...I was thinking about that today. One of my T sees like a bazillion kids so I always feel like his office is a germfest (but then I am a total germaphobe so that's probably a bit of an exaggeration.)

Vit. C it up, Hankster!! I hope you feel better soon!

I found this dbt self help website. It's great I'm using it's section on radical acceptance... I've heard people talk about dbt on PC and made it sound like it only benefits people with BPD but I really love the concepts.

It's like how to think normally in 1,000 easy steps. I told my First T that I wanted a handbook on how to be normal and he just laughed and said there isn't one but I think there is....
