awesome idea.

try warm drinks or hard candies. [edited- thatway]
good luck

it's ok... we all slip sometimes. just try to remember what causes you to slip and think of ways to handle the situation better should it arise again.

no worries. slip-ups happen
take care of you

can you talk to your dad about how your feeling and ask him to help you out with this?

1. my bf because he's wonderful
2. my cat, whom i can't live without
3. lip balm -- my addiction
4. a very long, good book
5. water, water, and more water

that's so awesome!
congrats on finding a healthy alternative!!!

i'm broke, so i don't go shopping, but i do throw a quarter in a jar every time i need to reward myself, and then spend that money on something fun eventually.

namaste,

meditation works great for me.
there's an author (a vietnamese buddhist monk) named Thich Nhat Hanh, who has a lot of good meditations to focus on. He's written a bunch of books, you can usually find them at any big book store.

it's a good way to get started anyhow.
good luck

oh yeah, baking is the best. particularly baking bread, because you get to punch the crap out of the dough, which always makes me feel better.

glad you have a good distraction!!

applying lip balm.
i do it compulsively all day long, and it helps remind me to take care of my skin...

thanks for posting this -- hopefully someday i can actually manage to do these things.

virtual crying....


oh that helps...

i didn't si because i didn't want my sister to see it.

aiiiiiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

oh, so much better!

depression, stress, and the PTSD definately keep me from sleeping!

i'd keep the topic in the open. don't be afraid to ask about her injuries. maybe consider getting her some outside help like a counselor. spend time with her (we tend to si more when we're alone). and don't forget to take care of yourself too!

i'll cry too

ice cream ---mmmmm

hey i'll join!

about time that my poor kitty stopped being blamed
