I am feeling quite depressed today. So depressed, in fact, that I called in sick to work. I need to talk with someone. I am not calling T because even though he's checking his messages while away, he is not doing so with frequency. Also, I am very sensitive to the fact that he is away, and I don't want to bother him. Besides, it is only four days until he comes back; five 'til I see him. I just think I need to talk with someone a little bit.

I thought I could call my marriage therapist. I like her a lot, and she know a lot of what goes on with me. I think I would feel comfortable talking with her for a few minutes if it was okay with her.

So far I have called twice and hung up before the message machine even beeped.

This is hard.

Ok, I left the message. I'm not one to give into fear with stuff like this. She probably thinks I'm a moron, but probably not.

(((((( Pinksoil)))))) I'm sorry your going thru such a hard time. I really do encourage you to call your marraige T again and leave that message. You must need to talk to her otherwise you wouldnt keep doing it or thinking about it. I've been in your place many times, and it always feels better to call.

What do you feel is stopping you from leaving that message ?
And how can you work thru that to get the help you need atm?

I hope you can do this. I am here if you need to talk. I am a good listener.

Take care ok

I know what you mean Pinksoil. It is very hard for me to call my T for ANYTHING, even if it's not a crisis situation (which has only been one time). I'd try out the marriage therapist. She might be better for the moment anyway, and it wouldn't make you feel as awkward with your regular T when he returns. Have you tried any distraction methods like exercise and/or renting a movie (Netflix is good), or cleaning or something?

I'm sorry you're so sad!. Good job reaching out to get some support.

I wish I could be more helpful, but I wanted to let you know I read your post and feel for you.

hang in there,

She called back. We talked about how last night's marriage session was probably one of the triggers for my depression deepening. It was a very difficult session. It was nice just to speak with her and sort some of this stuff out.

Can you figure out any particular event, thought, or otherwise occurrence that is making you feel so sad today?

I'm glad you were able to connect with the marriage T. I know--a poor stand in for T--but at least you were able to process with her.

Here, is a new toilet I'm thinking of buying what do you think?
