I am doing alright. I saw the dentist and she took care of my tooth. Later on my my boy-friend took me to see my gyn,and got that over with,but he wants me to have a sologram done to see why my periods are heavy,and to get blooy work done. I have to have the sologram done next Monday,not looking forward to drinking the water. My nurse came over and did my medications. I had a busy day and now we are relaxing. I have day treatment program tomorrow so I have to get up early for that. I just wanted to let everyone know how I am doing. NO SO so far and that is great. I did not get a chance to write in my journal today,but I will write tomorrow.I will be just fine. I will be back on the bus later.taking care of myself :bcatsmile:
I am in a dark place like a turtle afraid to deal with the pain that I do not want to feel,but eventually I will slowly face my pain,like the turtle when he comes out of his shell.

Hi Candy, just dropping in to say hi. Sorry to hear about the reaction to the meds. I'm glad you got your tooth looked at though, toothache is horrible. I hope you have a good day at program today.

Hi Candy, I'm glad that you had a good day, and your therapist helped you. I find writing in my journal really helpful too, writing is good for making things feel a bit better, especially with strong emotions and things. Keep taking care of yourself :star:

I am doing alright. I have been keeping myself busy today. I went to see my mother this morning to pick up a few things. Then I came home I cleaned my bedroom and the kitchen,and tomorrow I will finish up,cause I have to go to the hospital Monday to have a utralsologram done,so I have to drink 32 oz of water. My gyn wants to see why I am having periods that are heavy. I see him on the 28th of Jan for the results. I hope everything is going to be just fine. I am writing in my journal and it is helping me alot. My boy-friend will be over later on. I just wanted to let everyone know how I am doing. I will be just fine. I will be back on the bus later. taking care of myself :bcatsmile:
