I fell asleep last night on the job of being the couch bar tender. So..the bar is now opened..step on up for your favorite drink and everything’s on the house since I fell asleep on the job last night. I’ll just be handing the drinks out since I’m working. I can’t be a tipsy bar tender tonight.

I did an online doctor's visit through a local clinic. They want me to go to their ER-lite clinic today to get checked out. I'm too scared to go though. I just can't do a pelvic exam. I don't have symptoms of anemia or blood loss so surely it's not that urgent. I think I need to think about it overnight.

Yes, exactly. I look forward to when I don't have to attend anymore

NP I would strongly suggest you do go. You've
Possible trigger:


You're stronger than you think you are. Maybe you would feel more comfortable with a female doctor? Can you take a transitional object with you to hold in your hand?

I agree with Una O and I hope you get there too.

You actually feel so much lighter when you don't have to deal with toxic situations and people.

I agree, NP. You could always decline a pelvic exam--they can't force you to do anything. It's possible they'd just want to do an ultrasound anyway. And you might not feel anemic, but might be good to get bloodwork done anyway.

I think it's lovely of you to do gifts for all the kids. Gift cards don't sound terrible- lets the person pick whatever they want. I've already bought my sister a £20 Starbucks gift card.

Eff.
It's okay to want care. Wanting to just connect is a real reason in my book too.

Ugh, I''m getting a cold (there's one going around my residency program; it was really only a matter of time). Holing up in bed with coffee and cough drops because I still have work to get done.

Also, emailed T twice yesterday and he hasn't responded. (We have an agreement that he won't respond to my emails but sometimes he does anyway.)

I am currently trapped in bed under a cat who won’t move. Send help.

There is no help, minion. You must endure. Service to a cat is not entered into lightly

I had a long talk with my mom yesterday about therapy, life and stuff. She said again she wants to pay for my therapy for a time and she wants me to find a new t soon. I told her I'm really not wanting to jump back in right away... I'm happy at the moment using my writing as therapy. I don't want to accept her offer anyway because then I'd feel obliged to tell her about my sessions. (I didn't say that last part to her.)

eta I also told her I'm going to be changing to a more short-term, solution-focused therapy the next time around. I've no intention of entering an open-ended analysis type, relationship-with-the-t-centered therapy again. (Been there, done that, didn't even get a t-shirt. Ha!)
