It sounds like something I would say. I grew up with 6 brothers so saying things like this don't cross my mind as something NOT to say.

I started on the submissions for next week’s writing workshop on campus. We have a published novelist in the workshop this semester and so there’s a chapter draft. In a note at the start she describes her research, which includes consulting psychics to talk to her subjects. Don’t think I can take this seriously.

I am finding myself to be so full of anger this past week, and I don't know if it's me or the medication. I want to hurt someone or myself. I feel like I'm super close to snapping and I don't want to or like feeling this way. I just feel so upset.

Today T and I spent 40 minutes talking about nothing, and then a very intense 10 minutes discussing the fact that I ran into him and his family after group last week. It led to a discussion of how I'd looked up his wife about a year ago after finding her name in the acknowledgements of a paper he'd written. He was flabbergasted that I hadn't mentioned this to him. He's always surprised when he finds out that I've kept something from him, or just didn't think to mention it.

Getting news that one of our high school students died last night from a heart attack. It's going to be a hard week.

That would really annoy me. Seems like he has a huge ego or some sort of weird conceptualization of how therapy works. Unless he's a psychoanalyst, which I know he isn't, having any sort of expectation that you will lay bare your every thought to him is ridiculous.

With how irritable I've been this weekend I've still managed to complete all my classwork for the week. My paper wasn't due until Wednesday night but I got that done and turned it in yesterday. I also completed my week 6 discussions and working on week 7 one tonight. So now I'll only have week 7 and week 8 discussions to finish and I'll be done with those for the rest of the class. I have 3 more assignments to finish for the class that I'm going to try to work on the rest of this weekend. My T seems to think that it's not a good thing for me to put all my focus into my coursework and ignore myself. I guess I agree but I can't ignore my classes either.

Not sure if this helps at all, but I had a similar reaction to ability. I’m generally a pretty calm, slow to anger person, but on ability I was extremely irritable, and it drove me into the hospital because I felt so emotionally unstable. |

Something happened with my husband last night that’s been bothering me. I’m trying to figure out how to talk to him about it or if I’m just overreacting. Trigger warning for sexual content. I was laying down, facing away from my husband. I heard him moving closer to me so I turned around, at which point he

That is what's really worrying me. I feel so angry and just unstable, and I don't want to hurt anyone. I'm used to thoughts of hurting myself and those don't scare me aw much, but I'm worried I'm going to lose it on someone else. And that's scary to feel and not feel like I can control it or calm down .

I took a 400+ mile road trip on a whim today because driving was allowing me to dissociate and it felt better than being present. I ended up swinging by my (ex-)husband's prison. It looks like a prison, but it's less daunting looking than the first one they sent him to which looked a bit more Shawshank-esque (that one was a much closer drive). It was very beige with lots of razor wire. He's going to get served with a restraining order and the starting salvo of divorce papers within a very short window of time. I didn't plan it that way, but that's how it worked out.

hi couchies. well my sister weekend was a bit of a bust this year, as half the girls canceled, but at least I got to see 3 of them. A picked me up halfway between my mom's and her house on Friday and we hung out talking and watching that Brady Renovation show last night and we didn't even drink haha and were in bed by 8:30pm. Some party! haha! well we are getting older I guess... then this morning one of our other friends came and hung out with us for 4 hours, and later this afternoon another friend came for another 4 hours or so and she drove me back to my mom's. It was nice to see them, but not the crazy fun that we usually have when it's all of us! Now I'll be hanging out with my mom and sister except tuesday evening i'm going to hang out with my old sunday school friends, we haven't seen each other in years but have been chatting off & on on facebook for the past coupla years. We spent lots of time together as kids both on sundays and on thursday nights for jr choir practice and whatever night youth group was, i have forgotten. it will be nice to see them again too! i'm kinda already ready to go back home though. i'm such a home body.
