I feel so sad today. Something about the gray sky and the temperature is taking me back mentally to another unhappy time.

Thanks Kit. That's a good point, it certainly isn't always logical is it. And yep, we are scheduled for Friday at 1pm. Just that brief little bit of scheduling texts calmed me down. It's been almost a month since I saw her last. |

Kit, I think it'll be less worry and stress if you just tell your pdoc what's been going on and how you're doing now. Then he can do the heavy lifting of being a psychiatrist and figuring out what he can do to help.
I also don't think you have to be in crisis to deserve help. It's the work you do when you're feeling better that helps keep you away from being in crisis as often or as intensely. It's a little counterintuitive, but it's true. Kind of like exercising a muscle to make it stronger after you've fully healed from an injury. |

Chihiro, you're making me want to revisit college. Maybe I'll throw in some Ani DiFranco too?
My session with Amy was kind of intense this morning. She keeps making me pause and feel my feelings and stuff when I get upset. It's helpful, but I kind of hate it. She keeps planning to teach me about Opposite Action and I keep steering us off course with topics that feel more pressing. It's becoming like running joke that she never actually gets around to talking about it. |

I always want to tell him how I have been but I always feel like it is hard to tell him because if I am not experiencing it in the moment, it's hard to recall it precisely. It's also weird but I know how much he likes me (platonically) and I don't want to let him down. That's always in the back of my head. But I think it will be good to tell him about the demon that was bothering me last week and see if he can help me with it. I need to write some things down to tell him so I don't let the appointment slip away without mentioning them. I feel like this is a crucial appointment for some reason and I'm stressing about it more than usual. I hope that is my resolve to be more honest with him and not just tell him everything has been fine even if things are fine the day of the appointment. Thanks for your words of support. __________________ Dum Spiro Spero IC XC NIKA |

I'm sorry you are feeling so sad. Sometimes it helps me to just feel the sadness so I'll put on a sad movie and then just "cry it out" but sometimes it helps me to do something else. Maybe something nice for myself. Change the mood a bit. Maybe one of those options will appeal to you. Hope you feel better soon.

I am becoming increasingly dubious about returning to the classroom this spring. The school’s technology is worse than I thought—basically some of the tech people have faken to telling faculty NOT to use the classroom equipment, just bring in a laptop and teach that way. You know, like we can do from home. Oh, and then there’s the pandemic. Has anyone noticed that if you say 2021 aloud it sounds like “2020 won”? |

I wrote down a few notes and then faxed them to my pdoc's office. That way ahem, we have to talk about them. I know there's a lack of privacy there but I don't really care. He has one receptionist who has met me exactly one time and wouldn't remember me I'm sure and a therapist who is also his wife. Well I think they are married, he calls her his sweetie normally but I think once he said she is is wife. Although she must use her maiden name as her professional name because it's different than his or she just didn't take his last name. I've met her exactly once and I'm sure that she wouldn't remember me either. I tried in the note to explain about the demon bothering me last week and that Pastor T thinks it is a hallucination or delusion (he didn't say which he just said, not real) and annoyingly so said that I was using that to make excuses for wanting to hurt myself. Nope. Was not. Those were not my thoughts! They might have been in my head but they were not my thoughts. So when Pdoc gets to the office tomorrow he will have the fax waiting for him and I'll have a copy of the fax to refer to it in case he didn't get it for some reason and we will be able to discuss it. Hopefully it makes sense written down. Thanks for all the support couchies! Kit

Could it be your rotator cuff? I tore mine once and the pain was absolutely miserable. I ended up doing a year of intense physical therapy (at the clinic and at home), so avoided surgery. __________________ |

That's my guess, based on how my pain is different from what h had with a torn labrum. but I'm not sure. I'll find out soon hopefully! Where was the pain centered? Mine is kind of in the front of my shoulder but feels deep. |

Watching Nanny 911. These are reruns from 10 or 20 years ago. Boy my sensitivity towards the married white male parent has um increased. So like ive seen these guys before, right, but now they REALLY get on my nerves. Um i mean i have much higher expectations of them based on my current relationships with the wonderful enlightened gentlemen of my environment today.
