    Childish? Oh Yeah. Do I Care? Meh.

    When I had my password changed by the administrator the day that I discovered the fb account, I told my boss, and she said "Well that was dramatic." I said, no, I don't think it is. She signed in as me. I don't know what she was doing while under my name, I can't trust her. She replied "Well, if...

    Poll Are You Artistic?

    I've always done artistic things, and other people called me an artist, but I never thought of myself as one, for that reason "I'm not good enough to call myself that" Then I watched "Turning The Art World Inside Out" and someone said "An artist is someone who HAS to get something out. And...

    Childish? Oh Yeah. Do I Care? Meh.

    I've been working at my job for just over a year now. It's basically a job share in an office, but I do overlap with the other woman for a day and a half, and we ended up being pretty good friends. Had a lot in common, similarish backgrounds, I was happy to have found a friend. She's completely...

    When New Memories Occur Between Sessions

    Thanks! One of my problems I think..well, know, actually, lol, is focusing. The student in me wants to be all formal and organized and set aside specific "therapy" time to read and consider. But instead I just do it all the time, but not formally? So nothing sticks, no actions come from...

    Something Random That Might Make You Laugh

    OMG OMGOMG I did the SAME thing!! Except I signed up early for it thinking I'll get a jump on it, 2 weeks before the challenge starts, and then I;ll do the challenge, and then I'll cancel cause I'll know yoga to do it on my own! I didn't start it early. Or on time. Or at all, so then I just...

    How *active* does one have to be to become an active member? Activity and I go waaaaaay back, nemesis-wise.

    Something Random That Might Make You Laugh

    Uuuuuuughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Sorry guys. Mom call break. which leads immediately to "well I'm going to go out in the snow and get cigs now!" Will return and resume and reply shortly! Oh, and the movie is, Meet The Black. I've not really been paying attention to it, I'm not sure WHY I put...

    Something Random That Might Make You Laugh

    I would love to, but I don't think I could handle if it always smelled like meat here. UGH. OMG it's Mike Tyson! Sorry...Mike Tyson is in this movie, not in my house...oh god... I was just about to say he's also not in my meat holes, but that sounded awful.... Did I mention our toilet is on a...

    When New Memories Occur Between Sessions

    Thank you @Gia1019 :) I'm just...I don't even know. Lol. The parts thing still throws me. I don't do "parts work" in therapy, just one session he started talking about how we all have parts, and some react without us really knowing if we don't understand that it's happening, and now every once...

    :D Yeah, I don't care what anyone tells me, they're meat holes forever! I had a ghosthunter app on my phone for awhile, and it would put words on the screen that the ghosts were saying. We kept waiting for moooooooo to come up!

    LOL! Ghost cows!!! I used to call that song "Ghost Riders In The Sky" Ghost cows in the sky. Did you ever see any of the ghost cows? :) Sounds like something Anna Nicole would be interested in... Sorry, sorry, I'll see myself out :facepalm:

    Something Random That Might Make You Laugh

    So, I live in an apartment in a building that used to be a general store. When I was looking at the place, my roomie said "this part was where the butcher shop was. These 'trap door' things in the floor were the meat holes where they threw the parts down to the basement." I totally believed...

    Getting Protector Part To Back Down

    Thank you so much for starting this thread, and to all who've replied. So much just clicked into place from everyone's insights that...well, that I've been sitting here like "whoa" for I don't even know how long, and the cursor has just been blinking away, so I'm gonna leave it at THANKS! and go...

    When New Memories Occur Between Sessions

    I called once, in November. I left a VM, and never heard back. It turned out he had been out of the office, and whoever took the messages never even said I called. When I was explaining how I had called, I said, I was stuck on something, and, I called you, actually, and he was like, oh I wasn't...

    When New Memories Occur Between Sessions

    I saw my T on Monday, 4 days ago. It wasn't...the best session(?). I told him how I had an appointment that night about starting a DBT group, and it turned into a DBT group because I originally contacted the leader about her Women's Trauma group as an "and the horse you rode in on" to him...

    Got Back Into Myself By Getting Out Of Myself

    Thanks for the kind words :) I don't know if I should take my "success" back, I ended up calling my t anyway, and leaving a message. No call back, so now I'm kinda like, ooo. ouch. Now I'm hoping for no contact til my next session, where I will not bring it up, and it can just be swept under...

    Got Back Into Myself By Getting Out Of Myself

    This morning, a friend posted a picture of her son covered in stickers. It was adorable, but something about the stickers pushed the door to the past open a little. I acknowledged the queasy feeling, but tried to push it away and go about my morning. Then I saw a video of a kid who makes stuffed...

    To Kill A Dyingbird

    Ack, Pixel, I understand. I've had a couple of similar experiences. 1, a firefly flew into the wax of a citronella candle. I fished it out and set it on the table, and when it didn't fly away I realized the wax was probably hardening on it, and I'm not sure how bugs breathe, really, but that it...

    Emdr After Effects?

    Denis Leary does a bit on NyQuil "It says right there on the bottle, 'may cause drowsiness.' It should say 'don't make any plans.'" My T told me "Things will keep processing, and your reactions to people may change." He *should* have said "You're going to remember EVERYthing you purposely...

    Why Does Every Moment Have To Be So Hard?

    Thanks for the replies :) I actually called the office later that day for an earlier appointment, just based on he had said 2 weeks, and the appointment was for 3 1/2. I do journal, though in these blank times, not as often. I guess this is just time to try the "container" again, which is...

    Why Does Every Moment Have To Be So Hard?

    That lyric pops into my head often. Sometimes it's tongue in cheek, and gets me to laugh at myself. Other times, like today, it's whiny and frustrated and earnest. I'm in a rough patch in life. Normal life stress, with the added ptsd flavor. It's fine. I know I'll get through it. But the...
