Today's session was hard, and it has me completely wiped out! As soon as I finish this post, I'm gonna lay down and take a nap.

We talked about my bipolar and depression and how that whole situation affects my life and how I want so badly to be relatively stable and have a career rather than being unstable like I currently am and just working jobs, or being on disability. We also talked about my mom which is a touchy subject...and not more than 20 minutes in, I started crying, and I cried on and off for the rest of the session. T said she understood why I was crying which made me feel a little better, but not much.

And this is why I changed my work availability so I'm not available on Mondays. Going to work after a session like that? Hard as hell/nearly impossible.

I can't work after therapy either. I have had sessions where I have walked down the street and hid/cried in the mall washroom for hours after therapy. Hugs. Naps are okay. I almost always need a nap after I cry like that.

Of course, I couldn't nap...but I did veg out in my dark room and watch Netflix for a good while. I feel a bit better, especially with eating my feelings (ate about half a pint of ice cream)...
