What good things are there in your life today?View Thread


But now as I sit at the airport waiting for my friends flight to arrive, I'm crashing. I just want to curl up in a little ball and cry myself to sleep. Instead I'm going to keep myself busy here for a while. Feel free to read or to read.
The friends I met up with for dinner- we worked at a girls camp together a long time ago. They are a lot of fun. They live within 20 minutes of each other so they see one another fairly frequently. I typically only make it down 1-3 times a year.
I wish I could talk with them about what is going on with me. Way back when I could have.
To be continued. My friend just arrived.View Thread


I have several doctor appointments again in the next two weeks- trying to get other health issues taken care of. I'm nervous about some tests tomorrow where I'll have to partially disrobe. Likely to be a bit triggering. The problem is that it is an hour and a half drive each way and I'm struggling to remain present when I'm triggered right now. Although I don't have anyone going down with me, I am meeting up with some friends afterwards and will have someone riding back with me. I think on the way down....I'll probably get something sour to chew on to help me stay present and...I guess hope for the best.
I'm getting so close to the end of this stuff. I know I'll probably continue to deal with triggers from time to time- likely for the rest of my life, but if I can just get past this part of things I may be able to réclame some of the most important aspects of life. This is the hope that is keeping pushing forward, but...where I'm at right now sucks!

When I was younger, we used to get together with all of the neighborhood kids and play night games in our yard and my great aunt's yard just next door. We would play for hours. It was always a lot of fun.View Thread


Work was horrid today- it was seriously three bad Mondays all rolled into one and now I'm starting 10 steps behind tomorrow with a similar day as today quite likely. I made it through, though- mostly. Then I came home to absolute chaos. I'm seriously barely hanging on right now. I'm going to take my strong sleeping meds tonight so I can hopefully get a few hours of goods sleep without all of the nasty dreams that are back again, so I can try to survive another day...or not- really don't care much at the moment.
