Welcome to the couch, old and new! A place to hang out - sometimes you get immediate feedback, sometimes you don't.
Shouting, "Cool Whip" tends to bring others out from between the cushions if you're feeling lonely. This is a chatty thread. All are welcome. We're kind of psychologically oriented, sometimes. We try to be supportive. At times we discuss what that means. It’s a place to plop down on the couch when you come home from work or wherever, or wake up in the middle of the night, or check in at lunch, rant a bit or not, and be among friends. We advise you not to drink or drug and text your therapist ("T") - we speak from experience. Sometimes the thread moves fast and you might get overlooked; sometimes it moves slowly and all you hear are crickets. Sometimes you get hugged or thanked pages later. So if it's a bigger question, you might want to start a new thread. Grab a cushion, a spot on the floor, or an armchair in the corner and make yourselves comfy.

Hi couch. I'm done with IOP and therapy for the week. I didn't get much sleep last night either so I was dragging in group. I told my T about the falling asleep at the wheel. He seemed shocked by his face but didn't have much of a response. I didn't really expect one but I was concerned. It was something new and not normal for me. T and IOP leader keep telling me to ask for what I want or need and I have no idea what I need.
Possible trigger:
The contract for IOP says you can't engage in SH while in the program. I told the psychiatrist yesterday that I SH and told the group leader I had urges today.
Possible trigger:

All I remember was there seemed to be a constant discussion about cool whip those for and those against, ingredients etc. I think it eventually became a running joke because it caused such discussion

I cannot stand real whipped cream or the store brand versions of whipped cream. It must be Cool Whip brand only. I have no idea why my taste on this is so specific!

I seem to remember that stopdog provided an interesting history of how Cool Whip came to be an alleged food product.
