I am doing alright. I had a great day at program and a good talk with my therapist. I did not write in my journal,and I feel bad,but I was soo tired when I got home,that I fell to sleep. I am watching t.v.,and waiting for my boy-friend to get here. I will be just fine. NO SI so far and that is great. I just wanted to let everyone know how I am doing. I will be back on 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.

To find yourself,think of yourself first.

I had a great night. I watched t.v.,with my boy-friend and relax. I have day treatment program tomorrow and then my mother is picking me up early cause I have to see my gyn for my results. I am nervous and scared,cause I do not know what he will say to me. I have not done any SI tonight and that is great. I just wanted to let everyone know how I am doing. I will be just fine. I will be back on sometime tomorrow. taking care of myself :bcatsmile:

I kept myself busy most of the day and now I am waiting for my boy-friend to get here. NO SI so far and that is great. I just wanted to let everyone know how I am doing. I will be just fine.

I am doing alright. I went grocery shopping this morning and then I came
home and took a nap. I am writing in my journal and it is helping me alot. I am feeling pretty good,just anxious right now,so I am trying to focus my thoughts on other stuff. My boy-friend will be over later on,so till then I am going to relax. NO SI so far and that is great. I just wanted to let everyone know how I am doing.I know that I do worry about alot of things,so my doctor increased my Lexapro,so I hope that helps,just need to give it time. I will be just fine. I will be back on later. taking care of myself :bcatsmile:
