That's a really awesome idea, thank you sunflowerwoman. I think I almost definitely would feel safer if psychologist wasn't watching me when I was saying hard stuff.

Thanks sidvicious1903, that's a good point! I'm a fidgeter as well.

I've noticed playdough in my psychologist's office. I wonder if maybe she'd let me mould with it while I talk to her. That might be something I could suggest, thank you!

Also thank you to pelagic, warmth sources are good too, definitely. Especially warm tea/milk.

Relieved that my friend still loves me
Relieved that IP helped some
Frustrated that the internet's not working properly
Afraid of going back to work
Hurt that work people don't understand
Itchy (! Argh!)

Thanks Pink and Roxi! Both are great ideas. I can't believe I didn't think of crystal myself though, as I carry one of my rose quartz crystals with me everywhere. Definitely on the list!

In my session today, psychologist and I were talking about how it's important to feel safe, both in therapy and out in the world, in order to deal with the big things that are making life so difficult. As part of my homework this week, she's asked me to come up with some ways we can achieve this for...

Too true, sunflowerwoman! Thank you.

I can't believe you. You're such a bad parent. I just.. argh. Why do YOU get children, and not me? It was bad enough when you just spoiled them stupid and allowed them to get away with all kinds of rubbish; now this? I know accidents happen, but come ON. You need to pay attention and actually spend ...

Thanks Chao, those are very important things to remember.

i'm so afraid of letting you down. i don't want to fail you.

I'm 25, so in the middle between young and old, really, and am childless - but I do have several nieces and nephews who I love deeply, and can apply this to. Thank you for the reminder!

Thank you, NotWaving. There's a lot here I can (and will!) hold on to, thank you.

I'm not.. sure this is the right board to post this on. If it's not, I'm sorry; I think it is, though, but I'm not sure. I get so confused which board to put what on. :o Um, anyway. Similar to the thread with the negative hospitally type consequences, I was hoping someone could give me some personal...

Not everyone in your life is bloody multiple! Topic hopping does not equal multiplicity. Please just stop. I can't do this anymore. I'm not part of a multiple system because it's special and fun and I want to be; I'm part of one because that's how things work in this head. Stop trying to tell me eve...

Wretched. Tired.
Worthless, useless.
Overwhelmed.
