That's because I am!!

We have two examination periods a year. I have pathology on the 18th then just pathophysiolgy and I will officially be in my 4th year if I pass (then only 5th year and 6th year to get through). My brother is in his 2nd year but but my course is 6 years compared with his 5, but I can apply straight to F2 instead of having to work for two years as a junior doctor .

I sent my therapist an email yesterday afternoon telling him I was feeling suicidal but that I was doing/had done the things I do to cope. He didn't respond, which I guess was okay because I told him I didn't need anything from him. Now I feel so ashamed that I don't want to go see him today. I'm supposed to leave in 35 minutes. sigh.

I am still in bed now, though I have of course gotten up earlier to feed him and take him out. He hasn't left me. I love animals. They are so empathic. His owner is coming to get him in about 3 hours. I'll miss his crazy self, especially now that I am all alone except for my ratties. I've been torturing myself by looking at rescues that I can't have. I don't know how I'll survive without a dog.

And thank you to everyone who expressed their condolences yesterday. It really meant a lot.

Edit: My roommate hasn't even noticed anything is amiss. I think I hate her a little bit.
I think Lunatic dog understands and that's why he's mellowed out. I would love to get a dog either a golden cocker spaniel or Jack Russell Terrier and hopefully will when I get my own place as I'm not allowed to have pets in my building.

(((Fille folle))) omg. Lunatic dog. Maybe he was trying to warn you that your own dog was declining. He was overreacting because he only knows puppydom so the whole situation confused him. kwim?

I could understand why you don't want to see him, but you have nothing to be ashamed about NP. You were very brave to be honest with him and I would have liked an acknowledgement in that case.

I hope you do go and talk to him about this.

H is okay. He's still in stomach pain though. His blood test and ct scan came back normal. They think it might be gastroperisis (however you spell it). I don't know. With his heart and stomach, no one seems to know what's going on. He'll see a gastroenterologist on Tuesday, so we're hoping for answers then. Poor guy thinks he's going to die. He's trying to get everything in order in case he dies. He's really scared. I am too, though I also know he's the biggest baby when he doesn't feel well.

Ooh, you would have loved this. There was a guy on the weight watchers website who looked EXACTLY like Niles. So he was COMPLAINING about his appearance! I was like, are you crazy, you look like Niles another lady agreed with me. Hes too young for me, but you could have him!

Eta - i just saw your other post. Dogs and cats i think are emotionally wiser and more attuned than many people. They HAVE to read body language.

When I reread what I sent him I just want to hide. It seems so stupid and pathetic. I guess a response would have made me feel better.

This weekend has been awful. I'm feeling really depressed and suicidal. I've been googling ways to do it again. I've done the things I'm supposed to do. I even took a long drive today and of course it's raining when I got where I was headed. I don't need anything from you. I just wanted someone who has actually met me to know I'm struggling.

At work, there was some girls in the office who asked me to get rid of a spider for them (I'm fearless around spiders) so I look for something to catch him/her with to take him/her outside and rehome Incey Wincey to the outside, before I have chance to find anything, they disturb Incey Wincey when he/she is not harming anyone, just sitting in a corner minding his/her business, they decide to kill Incey Wincey then when they know he/she is dead they run squealing from Incey Wincey's squashed body

(I have no idea if Incey Wincey was a him or a her)

FF, so sorry to hear about your dog. But did you say your roomate didnt notice your dog is gone? I’m sorry. I never lived with a roomate so I’m not sure what the dynamic is supposed to be like, but not noticing seems really...I dont know the word I’m looking for... maybe oblivious. Hugs.

I took my dog to the vet today. She has an enlarged liver and spleen. Guess she will be living out the rest of her golden years on medication. Very expensive medication. And the vet cost me almost 300 bucks today so Jersey is broke.

Eta - i just saw your other post. Dogs and cats i think are emotionally wiser and more attuned than many people. They HAVE to read body language.
I would marry Niles in a heart beat. I liked the way he respected and treated Daphne.

I've always either had crushes on men who looked very boyish like Justin Long or the opposite and older than me. My first real crush was on my chemistry teacher when he was clearly in his late 40s but he was the first man to tell me that he was proud of me.

My mum asked one of those psychic who said I would get married at 32 and have 4 children.

I've sent my T a few emails I would describe as just "O_o". Personally I would never think asking for help when you're struggling with suicidal feelings would ever be pathetic or stupid.

I've read your post in the Dear T thread, I think it would be really helpful to talk about contact outside of session. Did he normally reply back before?

Hehe I'm actually giggling right now. It was love when I first saw him in Jeepers Creepers and then in He's just not into you, I was hoping he would make me the exception. I might settle for like Tobey Maguire though.

That sounds really horrible of them. I never kill spiders either and run around trying to trap them with a cup and release them outside.

They might want to do an endoscopy to rule that out, but it is a condition that can be helped by controlling diet depending on the severity of it. I hope the GIT doctor will be able to give him an answer.

You’re just another obstacle in the course of our true love, which never does run smooth.

Besides, she looks nothing like Niles.

Oh, and watch out for the Russian ambassador. He’s often hiding under the bed.

Asked pdoc if he could see me this week b/c I've been feeling sad and disoriented since T's sudden departure. But he is never quick with Epic messages so who knows if he'll even see my request until the end of the week.

T had said she'd call him and ask him to see me this week but maybe she forgot or maybe he just didn't follow through.

I hate this.

Also for months now my mom has been trying to talk me into coming to visit her and I kept telling her I don't want to. And then she'd say she could come visit me and I kept telling her I didn't have the energy or the time off work. (We live on opposite sides of the country.)

Well she just told me that she's ****ing coming anyway. And now neither of my shrinks are reachable. What the **** am I supposed to do?

Insist she stay at a hotel and don't alter your work schedule in any way to accommodate her?

As for the psychiatrist, if you messaged him, maybe calling would get a quicker response?
