A nextdoor guy friend-requested me. I accepted, but there has been no movement since. Dating in your sick fat burnt-out 70's!

Today was a good day.
I spent part of it at a local wildlife sanctuary having an encounter with a fox they'd rescued from human 'care'. Due to being fed human food she had a calcium deficiency that led to a broken leg.

Given that she climbed up on my shoulder at one point, I think it's safe to say we got on well.

well i got a huge surprise last night! when I got to baggage claim at the airport and was looking for my sister, guess who tapped me on the shoulder? MY SON! he and his girlfriend flew in also to surprise me! he'd been planning it for a month and somehow managed to keep it a secret. It took a few seconds for my brain to recognize that it was actually him and not someone else that just looked like him. He made my entire year!!

Join eHarmony or Bumble ?

There might be speed dating in your area?

Meetups.com for just walks or talks?

Write out a list of what you want in a partner.

Make space in your closet for when he moves in.

not a good day today. yesterday i found out when i’m going to the inpatient place (next wed). But the director told me that it is now. a 7 day program and it’s more focused on getting you through the crisis and what to do when you leave.

i understand all of that. it makes sense. i called there earlier today for a reason i can’t remember, but the woman on the phone told me that the individual therapy will be different. since it’s a shorter period of time, it will be more focused on stabilizing you, and then see ya later! she didn’t say the last part. but that’s how i feel.

it reminds me of the place i went to in November. I hated that experience. I felt like i did not get any therapy, and there were a few other things.

now i am having doubts about going. i am already at like. 15/10 with anxiety right now with all the things i am dealing with. at least me going to this place i knew and felt familiar with would be the same. And it’s not.

I don’t know. I’m in so much pain (emotionally and physically), that it consumes me. and i need it to end somehow-but my life is really dependent on how much money i will have. I don’t have a diagnosis yet, so that’s stressful. I might have to move back to my dad’s house. i always thought i would never have to go back. And traveling with three cats for 8.5 hours terrifies me. Especially my one cat who has “potty accidents” every time. and then she was frozen at the vet. she tried to find the farther place to hiide, and sat there, terrified.i can’t do that to her for such a long time. i know there is medication options, but still, it would be rough. and i really don’t know how the other two would react either.

and i wouldn’t have the same support back home. there is family, yes, but we don’t do emotions. And the fact that I am losing my long-term therapist soon is breaking me. i am terrified my other therapist who i really like as well, doesn’t terminate too. Both of them are letting me go for free right now. But that isn’t sustainable.

I had to go to IKEA today. Needed a bookcase—my flat had built-in bookcases, so I’m a bit low on space for books.

It was horrible, of course, as the IKEA shopping experience usually is. Too many people, too many carts, too much forcing you to walk through endless stuff, even with shortcuts..

First world problems, naturally.
