I do wish I had payed stelast some attention! But I guess we were standing in the line of the wrong "God"/patents

Ha ha. That were the exact instructions I left my therapists office with yesterday. "Do your best to just shut of until monday when we continue to work on this"

Feels kind of good to have the permission to dissociate so that I dont have to beat my self up about it

When you're having a quiet moment on your own in the house. You think you are relaxed....then the postman throws a letter through your door. I fair flew off my seat!!
Still trying to peel myself off the ceiling, stop shaking and stop my heart racing in my chest.
Now to get painkillers coz I set the pain in my back off again when I jumped. :grumpy:

When someone says your really good at reading people. What you want to say is "Yeah that's hyper-vigilance and survival techniques from my f*cked up childhood". What you actually say is "thanks".

When being in denial about your own symptoms is the best you can do at the moment. It's like answering the question "how are you?" With "fine" but to yourself.
