If I'd been given power when I still had some ambition, I might have achieved something.

Now I'm fit only for complacency and sinecure.

I think all cats are bullies.. their cutes and purrs are what makes us keep them around.

So I was in training at work yesterday and today learning the update to one of our systems we use, it's an awesome update and I'm thrilled with it and can't wait to start using it on calls. Anyway near the end of the day today, I got an email from my manager inviting me to a meeting monday morning because they want me to be a floor-walker helping people with the new system when it rolls out! I'm so excited, that they trust me to do that when I haven't even used it in real-life yet. I've been using the 'old' system since July, and they must think I'm pretty good at it! there will be a small group of us floor-walking and answering questions as they come up. I hope I get the chance to use it on live calls before we start the floor-walking! oh well, if not, I can do it! I really like the update a lot.

Have any of you been nervous to share something unique about you and your T's situation/relationship in fear that people would judge, or accuse your T of wrong doing? Nothing huge, just small things?

Do you mean share in real life or share on here?

Yes, to both.

I used to tell my parents exactly where I went, with whom etc because they're controlling. They're on an information diet now, and I just say "I'll be home late" and if they ask why I just state "just out late" and walk off.

You don't have to tell him you went to see T or whenever you go out for whatever reason <3

I'll write up more fully on IST thread.
Yayy!!! High fives all around!

I want to leave my home and never come back.
And I hate being me, nothing new
I'm so sorry your family is so unsupportive. You need and deserve therapy. You are ill and suffering. Mental illness is real ((hug))

I've a long commute to and from work of about an hour each way, so I've time to read then.

Then to be honest, my office job has A LOT of fragmented gap time where I'm waiting on email responses, various approvals, stuck drafting some paperwork etc so I can check too.

And I use Whatsapp heavily for work throughout the day, so I use the Tapatalk app tons!

PC helps my work feel less monotonous, especially if I have to sit in a conference room on IT support standby for hours unable to do any other work.

No. I would not care if the therapist was judged or accused of wromg doing by anonymous people on the internet. It is not hurting me or the therapist in any way. If something someone said was wrong, I might correct it, but otherwise I would not be distressed.
