I'm proud of myself today because I had a good time with my friends, although I did get hit with a road cone, it feels good o be back with my friends.

Last night I went to my friend's BBQ even though I knew there would be girls there I didn't really know or have anything in common with. I went, I was nice to them and had an OK time. I can remember a time when the thought of it would have terrified me and I would have said no and gone home alone instead. I'm glad I didn't do that this time.

I'm proud of myself today because I wasn't going to call my therapist in the morning to tell her how I was feeling, but I've now decided to. It's the right thing to do.

Because I've turned the depressing music off and started listening to more cheerful songs. Because I've actually eaten today, and because I'm still coping.

1) I got into a great school (off a waitlist) and did not drive into a wall when my dad reacted as if he didn't care at all.

2) I'm allowing myself to feel justified in being a little angry with him.

3) I called the pDoc and got an appointment for Friday.

I'm proud of myself today.. because I helped a couple people without realizing it... and when I was told something by the one.. I didn't go straight into my denying of everything.. I kinda.. accepted it [in a bit of shock].. but.. I accepted a.. compliment.. without my usual stubborn self..

I've now finished it :)

I was emotional but didn't cut :)

I glimpse and stare and long at them and wonder who they’re for
A fairy came to glitter the concrete slabs today;
Perhaps tomorrow she’ll return to spirit me away

I am proud of myself today because I managed to fake my way through the afternoon even though I was feeling so down before I left for my second work shift that I could barely force myself out of bed.

Love,

In Which Something Oooh Occurred

And it felt like a winter machine that you go through and then you catch your breath and winter starts again, and everyone else was springbound. And when I chose to live, there was no joy, it's just a line I crossed. I wasn't worth the pain my death would cost, so I was not lost or found....But when you live in a world, well, it gets in to who you th ought you'd be. And now I laugh at how the world changed me. I think life chose me after all.

Today is my one month SI free. And even in my very realistic dream last night I didn't SI even though I wanted to.
