I know I'm starting to slide. I'm just not sure if I evn want to do anything about it. Lately I've been pinching myself with my nails. Very small pieces, like if I was popping a pimple, and just hold it there until it doesn't hurt. I feel total peace while that pain is there and it is hard to let that go. Especially at night I will dig my nail into my skin causing the same effect, leaving an indentation that it gone by morning. I'm starting to have a hard time staying calm without the pain. I just want to feel okay.

Do you have a therapist?

Yeah, Supposed to see her on Thursday this week instead of my normal Tuesday. I thought about telling my hubby what's going on but he's been so stressed out lately and I know he would just get mad at me for being too fragile. He kind of went off today so I know he'll believe that I'm reacting to him even if I tell him otherwise.

Are you going to discuss this issue with your T this week?

Have you thought about what might have triggered the slide? If there's a cause, you can work on fixing that, and the symptoms will be fixed as a result.
I hope you will be feeling better soon. |

I think a lot of it is this feeling that I don't have control and that I'm being blamed for something that another family member is doing, which I have no control over either. I forgot about therapy today so I plan on just seeing my T Tuesday. We usually don't talk about the desires for si, mostly just talk about whats going on in my life right now.

Things feeling out of control can be a trigger for me too. I think it's awesome you've been able to identify this as the reason.
I hate being out of control, but the alternative is that I be in control of absolutely everything in the whole world......that's way more responsibility than I want! Other people have to control some of it, and sometimes they're going to mess up, just like I do. I hope your T will be helpful on Tuesday. |
