I am doing alright. I got my blood work done and then I went to the dentist to get my teeth cleaned,and there was no problem there. Then I went out for lunch with my friend,we had a great time. I am just waiting for my boy-friend to come over and we might go out for awhile. NO SI so far and that is great. I still have not been able to get back into my journal,but hopefully I will soon,just need a break right now. I just wanted to let everyone know how I am doing. I will be just fine. I will be back on later on. 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.

I am doing alright. I have been relaxing and taking it easy most of the day. NO SI and that is great. My boy-friend will be over later on. I am feeling pretty good,even though I have not been using my coping skills right now,but in time I will get back in to using them I just wanted to let everyone know how I am doing. I will be just fine. Be back on later. taking care of myself. :bcatsmile:

I am having a rough night,besides my t.v.,that died, I slip with SI,cause I was feeling angry and all of these other emotions that I could not deal with. Everything is ok with my boy-friend and I,he just left to go home and get some sleep,and so I will. I need to get back into my coping skills cause it used to help me before,I am just having a real hard time doing so. I just wanted to let everyone know how I am doing. If anyone has any suggestions that might help me,please post it here.Thanks. I will be ok. taking care of myself. :bcatsmile:

I am doing alright. I have been having a rough time lately,and slipping to much with SI,but I am trying to take it easy and do good things for myself. I do feel bad about slipping though,but I have to pick myself up and try harder the next time. I just wanted to let everyone know how I am doing.My boy-friend will be over in a little while.I have been feeling depressed,frustrated and angry with myself,cause I feel lost with everything,like I do not know what my talents are,and what I am good at, it is like I do not know myself again. I hope that makes senses to you all. And not using my coping skills is not good at all. I will be just fine. Be back on later. taking care of myself :bcatsmile:
