Why do people say they will be there for you forever,
And then as soon as you make a mistake, they leave and never come back?

Something small that meant a lot to me today,

In group the therapist said, "We're not scared of you, Kori."
Made me feel really good and for once my thoughts didn't jump to, "you're lying!" I felt like I could actually believe her and it felt nice.
Even though people in group probably don't understand, it helps to know they are not scared of me

Let's see if I'll still believe it next group

i had a 1 on 1 meeting with my peer support leader. she thinks im outgoing. i told her i taught myself to be that way because i am so shy. she understood. no one else i know thinks im outgoing. they see a extremely shy reserved person. my mom even told me if i opened up more id get more friends. my dad too.

We're all just melons waiting to be squashed by a mammoth whale when it all comes down to it. Too short for science and too tall for mathematical existentialism. Like a butterfly, going down a mega water slide, pondering. Where did my life go. At the end of the day we are merely crab shells, being crushed by little toddlers ugg boots.

I see a therapist on the 11th. I don't know what to expect. I dread going over my past with them. It's a lot to cover.

Went over notes from my old psychiatrist I had when I was 14. My sister-in-law told him I brag to my friends about all the drugs I'm on and in another session she said that she thinks there is something more than bipolar and depression. Now, they are like nothing is wrong with you, and I get pills for my boyfriend's mom and 15 year old sister. Yeah... I just can even. I'm sorry I complain a lot about this. One day I'll prove them all wrong.

Is it cbt? A lot of modern therapy doesn't deal with your past at all....just what is going on right now that you need help with.

Nuts are a good source for protein. I think it would be wise to add something like beans and nuts to that.

Your peer support leader is comparing your outgoing-ness to a different population that your mom & dad.

When your peer support leader says you are outgoing, she's probably comparing you to other patients.

When your parents say you are not very outgoing, they are comparing how you are with people who are not patients.

eta: my original post had "that" instead of "than" - which probably made it confusing!
