Was quite pleased with myself - I have a huge prob with self/body image etc and managed, for the first time ever, to go into a sauna. In fact I went into 3 different ones. Huge huge accomplishment for me. I also haggled over price for a purchase and although I accepted his first offer I am still really pleased with myself.
In my area the DBT is run in sections with group running alongside individual. Each rotation is 6 months and they expect you to do 2 rotations so group happens for a year while individual carries on for another 6 months after. Basically I graduate from my DBT group tomorrow - scary stuff ARGHHH
On an other good note I have just finished my tax return and they owe me over £180

It was cold but not unbearable (only got to about - 8 during the day).I managed to even push my self and do some things I have never done before while I was over there as well.
Still feeling low and generally scared but as my last DBT group session is on Tues I am thinking that has something to do with it.
got my tax return to do tomorrow so off to bed now.
Hope everyone has had a good weekendView Thread

la la la skipping in the sunshine of my head when everyone around me is making daisy chains
I hope that is enough of a gap
no sunshine really but I thought I would put something nice to begin with.
losing it.
meant ot be going to Estonia on Tuesday with college but just can't face it. getting more and more panicy about it. haven't done anything to pack (although I do know where my passport is)
going with students and a couple of tutors - not belonging to either of those groups am worrying about everything.
still have my tax return to do and just falling apart
really want to hurt. trying so hard to keep myself occupied but it hurts so so much.
worried about coping overseas. get stressed if I don't know the area and people - which is exactly what is going to happen on the trip.
anybody got any ideas?View Thread

joining in the chocolate sharing frenzy bod throws some of her home-made chocolate truffles to all her lovely friends across the water.
Big hugs to y'allView Thread

I have picked up my mums aversion to pulling hair out of the plug hole in the bath (have to do it with my glasses off so I can't see what I am doing but still makes me gag)
What things have you picked up from your parents/siblings etc that really annoy you or remind you of them??View Thread

I spent the half hour walk to work doing big number x tables in my head (some of my numbers were 3.5, 17, 28, 243 etc) It def helped the urges to diminish for a time - my head was far too crowded with numbers to have any space for anything else. lol
Caprice - not early with my taxes at all. they have to be in by the end of the month - I have had since April to do them - why I always leave them I will never know. oh yeah probably cause I hate doing them heheView Thread

greetings for 2011 and lets hope we all have a better, safer year.
I have been trying to get my head into doing my tax return today - and have failed miserably.
but then numbers have never been my strong point.I have been wanting to post for ages about all the urges and triggers that have been around me. I am hurting right now and don't know what to do. I am nearly at the end of my DBT group course and I think that is panic-ing me slightly as well.
I feel cut off and trying not to drown. I have to go to work in a bit but just want to hide in bed.
not even sure if I can write what I want to say but thought this would be a good start. so many things I want to do and so many things I want to cry/scream about. I know I am stronger than I was but I'm not better. I don't want to have to pretend that I am. everyone thinks I am doing so much better. just want to hide away and not exist
got to get my arse into gear and get ready to walk to work - in a pub I don't like, with customers who I don't really like - its soul destroying but it's a job so I shouldn't complain. Found out before christmas that rumors have been spread that I was sacked from my old job for stealing from the till - which is TOTALLY untrue. In my mind this is slander and I am very angry about it. prob not helping my general mood if I think about it.
Will try and take down some of my defences and talk some more later but got to go now
((((((((((((((all of you))))))))))))View Thread

Thank you for all the times your wisdom has pulled me through. With all my heart I wish you peace. Good luck with the wide expanse of the future.
everlasting hugs from myself and the Owlies (who understand all)View Thread

Glad you're back.
So pleased you went through with the appointment. really proud, its such a huge step.
Whats up though Hun? You can always put trigger in the heading if you think what you have to say is possibly going to upset people. How about you tell us what is going on and see what happens. I hope you know by now that this board is a safe place and if you need to get something off your chest then you can.

thats beautiful RB and it hits right at the heart of things.
Thank you so much, I don't think I have ever had anything dedicated to me before.
I am going to print it out - if thats ok - I prefer reading things on paper (makes things more real sometimes).View Thread
