    What Do You Talk About?

    I can so relate to this. For me the above quote ^^ is the worst! VERY few (like 9 people, 6 family members aside all of you here) know about my suicide attempt and only 3 people aside from you here know about me being raped this past November. Due to what happened in November and issues from...

    Self condemnation

    sorry for taking a while to post, haven't felt the best but I have read all of your posts. Bristol has alerted me 3-4 times since I woke up 30 minutes ago, so we will see how much I can post. My blood sugar is fine and I just ate, so I'm not really sure what she is alerting too.. @RussH That is...

    Self condemnation

    Thank you all for your caring post, it means a lot. @Meadowsweet my T has said something similar too and while I would not treat others as I do myself, I have a hard time still with myself. Maybe it will get easier in time.. I always have that "BUT" reason for why I am different from a friend...

    Self condemnation

    I am my own worst enemy. I am really thankful for my therapist. She helps me laugh at myself when otherwise I would cry. For the longest time she has gotten on to me for being hard on myself. She will tell me something, normally trying to get me to see myself in a different way, and I will say...

    Possible Jobs Doing What I Love!

    Thanks everyone :) @Ghostybear73 I hope so too! This will be something to get me out of the house more while being something that doesn't raise my anxiety all that much!

    Possible Jobs Doing What I Love!

    Ok so today has been a REALLY good day! Started out with a great training session with Bristol and our trainer working on her dog reactivity. By the end of the session, she was laying fairly calmly (with occasional disruptions) approximately 5 ft from my trainers dog! My trainer was bragging on...

    @DharmaGirl I am thinking for asking for a a type of game console for Christmas, something like a Wii U, PS, or DS. What is your preference?? @Bookoffee thank you. I actually did a one full page and started another in my art journal… it helped a lot to get some things out of my mind on paper...

    Any Small (or Big) Successes Today?

    So sorry for the issue @gizmo but I admire your peace about it. We can only do what we can do, and it is enough but I know my anxiety makes it seem like it isn't.

    Good for you for allowing those feelings to come up and out. My T says that is very therapeutic. So far, I can only do it in her office and that is rare..

    Any Small (or Big) Successes Today?

    @KwanYingirl good for you with the bank! Hoping the process continues smoothly from here on! Rooting for you, jealous of the beach house :) As for Annie, if she becomes task trained, then she goes from an ESA to an SD in training. It is best to get a doctor's note, though not required. If she...

    Any Small (or Big) Successes Today?

    Sometimes giving ourselves a break is a healthy step :) @gizmo @forwardmotion462 I am sorry yesterday was bad for your too. I probably should've cried, but that is still something I am learning to do. I am glad today has been better for you!

    Any Small (or Big) Successes Today?

    Inner Child Work..

    Thank you @seedling My T says she has always found the work very healing for abuse survivors. Even more so for ones of personality disordered parents who never really had the chance to be the child. I was parentified from an early age. Maybe this is why I am timid around kids..something to try...

    Inner Child Work..

    So today took a very unexpected turn in therapy. We started with the plan from last week which was to decide next plan of treatment- basically whether to start another EMDR target next week or not. But first I had to tell her about my week. I've been sick and my mom pulled that crap the other...

    Too Scared To Have T Session Today

    canceling will only make it harder the next time. Good for you for emailing her. That is a first step. Like someone else said, take another small step and answer the phone when she calls. If it gets overwhelming, you can end the session. I had an issue with my T a few weeks ago, it was honestly...
