I am so not much for cake, but in this instance, I'll take one!

I'm also learning how it feels like to be nurtured in therapy by T (and the contrast of T to my upbringing is so f!@king painful!!) and then learning to hold myself tenderly in my mind.


This so totally describes where I am. I'm trying very hard to validate those parts of me. The parts that felt unimportant or that they could not be good enough to be ok.

Thank you for posting this!!

I could go visit my friend who moved to Colorado. I would need that location thing to justify in case of random drug testing at work... Or something...

We should have a Couch go-crazy-and-do-stupid-stuff spree.

*picks up cream pie and hits unaluna in the face with it*

Or I triple-double dare someone to drop an ice cube down SD's neck.
Thanks for this!

In Atlanta for a conference. I have several cousins who live in the area and I made contact via text, but feel like I am getting the brush-off. Not sure if it is them or me. Ugh

Hmmm. I notice SD and unaluna are lying low.

Only one possible explanation: they're afraid of us!

I guess it's more likely they're doing that adulting thing I hear so much about.

That strange woman who sits outside his room has started speaking to me again. Not before session because I took SD advice and listen to music but as I am coming out she's "see you later" or something. I hope this doesn't continue because I have walk by her twice.

Oh RTS, it is so good to see you! I have been wondering how you were. (i'm Mastodon.)

Plenty of people regret stupid things they have done and like every glib saying that one is patently false - staying safe sounds like a better plan. Which is not to say it's too late to do something fun. You are my age, IIRC. My T has mentioned to me that he has seen people e.g. discovering their sexuality when they were in their 50s (that was profoundly depressing to hear for me for reasons you don't want to hear about, but I think it is supposed to be hopeful).

But only some diversity is allowed. I feel extremely alien a lot of the time, including right now, and the only way to stop doing that is by conforming. Or shutting up. The only two ways is by conforming, shutting up, ruthless efficiency.... three! Our three weapons are fear, surprise, changing the subject, quoting Monty Python....
(sorry)
Thanks for this!

Hey kecanoe - that sucks. I have a friend who sometimes texts me to say she is in my town and asking if I have time for coffee, and I almost never have at such short notice even though I really enjoy hanging out with her. So it is not unlikely that they would have liked to see you, but can't.

I hope she stops doing that. It sounds very uncomfortable.
