Artie - i loved welbutrin and was on it for quite a while. After i went no contact with the family, like at least a year after? More? Idk - i told my pdoc i wanted off it because it felt like the welbutrin was trying to push up something that was no longer pushing me down. It was gratifying to have such a distinct experience. It sounds like you are at the other end of it, where it is pushing up something that is indeed dragging you down.
I dont think "they" pay enough attention to how psych meds make people feel. Like, too much prozac makes my head chilly! Drs have been like, thats not a thing. Dude, yes it is - i just said so! |

Then just for you, in Belfast today I took a picture of the Europa Hotel, bombed 36 times during the Troubles.

![]() the wellbutrin doesn't seem to do that. instead it's dulling what I want dulled. Or something like that. I totally feel like I'm back to my old self from before any of this depression crap started. i hope it continues. |

It is heart breaking for you. I know it is a cliche which will seem meaningless at this point, but it does get better. You will discover new parts of yourself and those discoveries will be powerful and they will be yours.

Hi Couch,
I had my first session back with R today. We spent the time unpacking the 'new' layer of early experiences and how they impact my beliefs. Towards the end of the session, I told R about how I wonder whether my process would be different if we'd been working in person at the time I found out about Steve's death. This led into a conversation about my dislike of virtual therapy, and whilst R said nothing of the sort, I'm worried that I've given the impression I'd rather not do it if that was the option. I said 'I appreciate that there are times when it is necessary...' Maybe there's some kind of side project in terms of building my emotional capacity. Thanks for listening, Lost

Let that sink in. Not as a tragedy, but as a fact and I know that hurts.
He's not coming back, but you're still here. And that’s all you need. You are not an empty space waiting to be filled. Maybe this is where you learn how strong you are. Maybe this is where you prove to yourself that you can keep going, even when it feels impossible. You’re allowed to miss him, to cry, to feel like the world isn’t fair. It’s not. He's not coming back. But that doesn’t mean you’re alone. We’re still here, and we’ll get through this together. You were strong enough to cope then, and you’re enough now and someday, when this ache isn’t so sharp, you’ll see it too. Life doesn’t stop. It doesn’t wait for you to figure it out. So we pick ourselves up, one piece at a time, and figure out how to keep going though the darkness, but there's one universal truth "dawn is coming". In time you will learn how to carry the weight of what’s gone without letting it crush you.

I don’t think you need to worry about giving the wrong impression to R. Therapy is about honesty, and it’s okay to dislike virtual sessions. You weren’t saying you don’t value the work or that you don’t want to continue, just that you’ve noticed something about the process that feels different. You’re reflecting on this which shows how much you care about the process and your growth. Building emotional capacity as a side project shows you’re open to working on yourself in new ways, even outside of therapy. It’s okay to not have it all figured out right now. You’re showing up, you’re doing the work, and that’s more than enough. It’s okay to let it take time. You’ll get there.

Thanks for providing the explanation, @@.
I couldn't figure out what Una was referencing. Post therapy brain fog is trippy.

More snow and ice on the way - the cat is already starting to act like he has joined the donner crew - and he is being fed cat food =but he is eyeing the rest of us like he might want something else. He hates being trapped inside the house more than I do.

After my toblerone tasting experiment - we still have a lot leftover. I have started mixing a chunk of dark toblerone (which I dislike on its own - not much of a dark chocolate fan) and a chunk of white toblerone - melt in microwave then add some
