    Anyone Ever Quit Their Job Unexpectedly?

    Oddly, I came in thinking about posting "So I might have just quit my job today" only to find your post right on top. I guess it wasn't that unexpected, as I've been having issues with a co-worker for awhile. But, this is not unusual for me. I think I've quit every job impulsively, until the two...

    Feels Like I'm Waging A War

    What a day. Started off ok. I pepped myself up writing here last night, and woke up pretty peppy. Did a LITTLE cleaning. And was sort of organizing myself a bit. Or, preparing to organize.? I dunno, probably did nothing. Then got a text from the crazy coworker apologizing. Which means the boss...

    Ok. Ok ok. If anything, maybe I've noticed a pattern....? I remember and/or talk about a horrible thing....and then I go "out of it"/autopilot. and/or get sick. Lose time. I guess that time is getting shorter? It was a week this time....and then when the fog starts to lift, oh do I hate...

    Childhood "you Don't Sound Enthusiastic About That"

    Then there are the times, like today, when the visits are actually somewhat pleasant, and I feel bad that I even posted about her. I only drink tea at mom's house, and she'll always make me a cuppa when I get in, and she has digestive biscuits. Lol, writing that though, I'm like, wow, that's...

    Childhood "you Don't Sound Enthusiastic About That"

    Thank you guys for responding. I guess I'm just not ready to give up my whole family yet. I know I wouldn't be popular if I cut my mom off. I guess I'd still have my sister. Cause she knows mom's true side. @Fadeaway I do like that way of looking at it!!!! @Killashandra Sorry for your dreams...

    Childhood "you Don't Sound Enthusiastic About That"

    My mother just said that to me after I said "Love you" at the end of the call. Mind you, I had already said it, she must not have heard me say it, so she said it, then waited for me to say it, so I said it louder, which must have made me sound less enthusiastic. You know what b****??? You're...

    Someone texted me about something, and I replied, "aw man, not today, maybe Friday." They texted back "it IS Friday"

    What Did You Do For You Today???

    I am not feeling well, so I'm resting *before* it gets worse instead of ignoring it. I stayed home from work yesterday, and was going to go today, but my coworker that gives me a ride pretty much took one look/listen and said "go back in." So I've cranked the heat up and I'm on the couch in my...

    "i See A Difference, I Hope You Do Too"

    Saw my T on Monday, finally, after a month. I wrote about that session in a different thread. I ended it dissociated (I think), and kinda cranky, and then remembered something awful from childhood, and then my next appointment was cancelled. Anywho, I made it through the memory, and the month...

    Woke up with physical symptoms today, yay. Major pelvic pain. I keep meaning to have it checked out physically, but made and didn't go to 3 gyno appts, so they discharged me from the practice. I did finally make an appointment with a new primary doctor, so I'll ask her recommendation. I am...

    Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Still so scattered, but at least a somewhat more productive scattered. Well, no. Not really. Ok. Which part refuses to focus? LMAO if only parts therapy was explained in song form, then I could understand it better. Then of course my next thought. Sigh. I'll just have to do...

    So...i Might Have Found A Therapist, And Have Some Questions About Emdr.

    My understanding/theorizing is that focusing on something in the present (the movements, or sounds, or tapping, however your t does it) while thinking about the past trauma somehow helps the trauma move along. I remember reading a long time ago that if you're stuck in a routine, changing that...

    Mediumship circle, not healing, but still healing. Got more confirmation that I am sensitive. A medium. My guides are gentle, and they're protecting me, with a bright silver, delicate...shawl, I want to say. Though I don't think that's how the medium who told me that put it. He said armored...

    I'm not standing still, I am lying in wait. I could be doing more while waiting for time to go to the healing circle though.... did a silly quiz earlier "what one word describes you?" It came up Angel. The OA, original angel, her nde made me say, yeah, that's what it was like. In the beyond...

    Feels Like I'm Waging A War

    Asked someone the other day "I wonder if Hamilton could be considered a coping mechanism?" It's amazing. I can't stop listening, and even if I'm not listening, it's playing in my head anyway. A musical hasn't impacted me like this since RENT, which made me change my life. I heard it in high...
