Couch 122 - Doin' what we do!

My sister is grumpy today and doesn't know why either.

Granite, I feel similar. There is so much to do, I feel overwhelmed, I don't have the energy and I don't want to do any of it.

Can you break the job into small, tiny manageable tasks? Sometimes that helps me. Then I reward myself with something after I get some tasks done.

Hi couch. Yesterday I feel like my brain broke. Today I feel better, I think. So far anyway. I am terrified to see T. I have no reason to be but it's soon, so could I get some pocket riders?

Me me me!

Will you bring the trampoline too?

ATAT, I was listening to an episode of this in the car on the way home yesterday and thought of you
BBC Radio 4 - Word of Mouth
It's about the origins of words. I learnt so many! "To poon a table"

Yes, is there room? I need to work on my double back flip.

Plenty of room her office is huge.

Chupacabra!

i will not contact the mother .i cant believe she is now calling my husband at work to ask him about my son and i .if she was even a little concerned she would not have told him to get out of my house . she lost that right when she did that . and then to call and harass me without even asking about him . right now im angry at her that she is refusing to respect my boundaries . she wont leave me alone

i had been trying to focus myself and be able to help my son.i am bearly dealing and then this .all the thoughts and memories . i hope my husband talking to her will stop her from trying to talk to me

Stay angry if you can...this is just a technique to force her back into your life, either via your husband or by upsetting you so much you break down and contact her.

Future ex tried the same thing using my mother.

I would like some of your energy! I dragged myself to the gym yesterday, but then after cleaning out my filing cabinets for 2+ hours today it was time for a shower and therapy. And if I don't go in the morning, it is simply not happening in the afternoon/evening. Meh.

Well first of all it depends if you have eating disorder or orthorexia tendencies. If you do I'd say its absolutely too much.

Otherwise it depends on
1. Do you feel like you "have" to exercise or do you do it because you enjoy it or as prep for a sport/competition?
2. Do you have any injuries that you are making worse?
3. Do you feel like your life is fulfilling?

If you are doing it because you enjoy it, you aren't hurting yourself and you feel satisfied with your life then you are fine IMO

Exercise can be a hobby like any other . it just depends on how its affecting your life whether its "too much"

No eating disorder.
Enjoy exercise.
No injuries.
Working on no. 3...

I look forward to going...like it's how I survived the deadly boring meeting I just sat through.

Think your T is wrong in this case. It sounds like your hobby/stress outlet.

Personally with my eating disorder history, an hour is the max before I start veering into OCD behavior

Hi couch. Just feeling emotionally and physically exhausted today.

I really shouldn't doubt her. She's seriously one of the best.

my husband just said everything is to much for him

what is too much? your mother?

Hugs to all of you who want one. I'd like to offer support, I just don't know how.

Is crocus okay?

Probably several of them!

Art - I don't know if you saw our comments on your other thread before it was deleted, but honestly - you did nothing wrong at all and you certainly shouldn't delete your account.

It sounds like you are having a rough time lately - please stay on the Couch so we can help.

(Plus I have the selfish reason of wanting to see your pictures! )

Me too!!
