Couch 155: The International Operator

It’s really rather odd, although I’m used to it now but, when I go to my t, I take ‘others’ with me. There is the ‘adult’ me, the ‘little person’ (5yrs), then there’s ‘Grace’ (8-10 yrs) & the ‘angry teenager’(13-15yrs). When I was first aware of my inner child, it was just my ‘little person’ & then the others reared their heads over time. My t is now very aware of who it is that’s present at any one time. If I were to attempt to tell some of my friends about some of the many inner conflicts my inner children have, they really would think I’d seriously ‘lost the plot’ It’s really only here that I can say & express how i feel. That’s sad in a way, as it seems like, unless you are struggling with some mental health issues, those other people really don’t have a clue & just can’t understand.

((Spangle)) I do the same

You changed your title after Oct 1 (when Arthur Janov kicked the bucket)?

(I be.....very.....slow)

I'm so done

Please stick with us, capt

Please, retitle myself after a therapist?

Nah, I’ve been primally screaming for months.

Eta: I bet Info likes parts of primal therapy.

Try to use the word "emotivation".

Like, my friends on the Internet/PC provide e-motivation?

It's actually a ridiculously short chapter. Is there nothing more to emotion than ten pages? (SD would probably say that was ten pages too many.)

Managed to induce a major tendinitis flare-up in my hands... from carving pumpkins last night with my friend.

Can't I do anything fun?

Couch... last session with T tomorrow.

This time for real...

(Luc) 8 characters

((Anais)) sorry about your hands. Did you do some amazing pumpkins though?

Hugs, Luco...

If anyone wants to come in my pocket, I think I will actually write you all on a piece of paper...

Gaaaaah. Somebody stole my bicycle. Now I hafta buy a new one and a new lock and new lights and I don't wanna!

Thankfully I originally bought it on Craigslist for $25 so it's not a loss of a huge investment, and I'm not on such a budget that I can't afford to buy another crappy bike and bike gear etc. [I feel like if I were a good person I'd feel grateful for that stuff instead of really annoyed that someone stole my stupid bike.]

Regardless... I am really not having a great weekend

The water would also have been cooling if you werent boiling them the whole time.

In! Bringing tea and so so so many good wishes for healing.

Thank you. There will be much tea-drinking in my pocket!

The NYT Sunday crossword puzzle reminds me of this old chant I used to sing as a kid:



Miss-issippi asked Miss-ouri
If she could wear her
New Jersey to the fair.
But what oh what will Delaware?
Idaho, but Alaska!

I'm in and sending hugs to you.
I know how strong and brave you are. You can do it!!

Dear Alex Smith (quarterback),

Could you maybe possibly actually throw the ball some in the second half? I clearly picked the wrong week to start you on both of my fantasy teams. And I'm playing H in one this week, so I need to win!

Thanks!
LT

I'll come along!

In, I will bring the macarons and a couple kittens

I gave them all the same silly expression. The effect was quite nice.

But I left them all in my friend's window and in the morning they were covered in ants, so she had to get rid of them.

((((capt))))
((((anais))))
((((luco)))) Happy to pocket ride.
