Is this just a thread amongst a few members and I crashed the party? I don’t come to the site very often.

nope, you didn't crash anything. Open to everyone.

Hi Everyone! I'm an "old timer" continuing the journey of healing here. Just passed the 9th anniversary being a member of The Forum.

I'm not as involved here as I used to be but I am finally journaling daily in a real notebook. I bought some gel pens and use a different color each day. I throw in a bit of "art" with doodling. I make myself print, which makes me slow my train of thought.

Am making some good progress using all the "tools" I can remember from my years of therapy. I should have a degree by now???

I hope you are all staying as safe and sane as is possible with all the crazy, scary, and painful issues that keep arising...

P.S. I just got triggered...WTH??? TEN minutes later??

I feel for you. I did the fourteen days by sleeping through most of them. Turns out I had the flu. Sleep is the best medicine.

Hello. Good to know that years of therapy helps in the long run. I am slowly getting into a routine of journaling. Good idea about the printing to slow down the mind a bit :)

Sorry to hear that. I hope it goes quickly.

Thanks everyone! I'm kind of in a funk mood right now. Technically I'm already a week down so I only have until next Friday. Apparently said coworker can come back to work 10 days after their first symptoms appear. So he will be back Tuesday. I however am starting to work from home Monday.

It's good you can work from home @SinkorSwim

I'm in the minority though everyone else will still be at work and I'm sure I'll be talked about.

Sorry for the negativity I'm just in an off mood tonight

Yes, it seems to be human nature for folks to be that way. So don't take it personally.
