Not at all! My frustration is with other threads and hostility toward therapy when someone is struggling to process what their therapist means or is doing. If someone has an axe to grind, that's fine on their own thread, but those are really vulnerable times and it's hard to see the worst interpretations of someone who is far removed from the situation and who may have their own very different reasons for hating therapists and therapy.
Also, I am sensitive to how negativity is winning in the world right now and if someone has a therapist, maybe that's all they have to hang onto that's good, even if others think it's crap. |

I don't think everyone always agrees on what constitutes negative or not. I also think that a variety of ideas maybe useful. An OP can always ask for what they want in terms of responses or types.

Better by inches. It's going to be a tough couple of days-weeks. Things are messed up again in my head. I'm not so despondent this morning as yesterday. I can't figure out who I am, what I want out of life... and such.
I know I don't have to solve these things right now... today. Just leaves me feeling disconnected from everything. |

(((Ruhroh))) sometimes "STOP IT!" is the only thing that works on me. Its sooooo embarrassing. Its beyond embarrassing. It cant even see embarrassing in the okay you get the idea!
I havent figured it out, skies said something about it once. Maybe it has to do with lack of emotional regulation? I.e., if we lacked emotional regulation growing up, and just dissociated, then in the present when we are in a difficult dilemma, we DONT dissociate per se but get caught up in some weird disregulated loop. Until Cher comes along and slaps us and says "Snap out of it!" So many good scenes in Moonlight? But that one was memorable yet kinda harsh. |

A la Trail's idea:
Last load of laundry in drier. check Sausages cooking on grill. check Pasta on the stove. check When I come back in from checking on the sausages, I'll have a picture from my backyard! I love this idea, Trail. Helps me feel like I'm accomplishing something today. |

Please share a picture Art! You live in Arizona. Is that right? I've never been there but I'd love to visit there one day. I love dry heat. I bet it's much different there in the summer than it is here with the humidity factor.
