Reading applications for our assistant professor position. Eyes glazing over. This may drive me to cleaning.

I see T tomorrow after our 2 week break. Part of me doesn't want to see him because I want to avoid telling him that

EMDR T cancelled so I won't see her for 2 weeks, there was a medical emergancy in her family. In the email she sent she went into detail and I wish she didn't, now I feel like my problems are so nothing I really don't even want to go back.

LT I thought of you this morning, I woke up and my wedding rings were not on my finger!!! I could have sworn they were there last night. After searching for half an hour I found I had taken them off in my sleep and put them on under my pillow. Good thing I'm not a T lol

H told me he promises to make 2020 my best year yet. I want to
Possible trigger:
. He also told me that I need to start saying exactly what's on my mind, and I replied that he's not the one to be giving me that advice because he won't like what I have to say.

That's pretty funny--glad you found them! On a similar note, a little while ago I took off the ring I was wearing on my right hand (a Christmas gift) because it felt a little snug, and I had trouble getting it over my knuckle because my hand was warm. Made me think of T possibly having trouble getting his on...

Ugh, I hate that feeling! With my last T, she was gone for 2 weeks bc her best friend got murdered. I felt terrible, but I could never tell her that. To her credit, she was the same as always when she came back.

Aw kit, I'm sorry.

I am feeling really depressed. Has gotten worse since Thanksgiving, and my T wants me to think about doing some sort of volunteering to get out of my head and bed. This isn't the first time we've talked about this, and I did go to a volunteer thingy at the SPCA,a nd then ghosted before I ever signed up to do the actual volunteering. The same thing happened years ago with Big Brother/Big Sister.

Unless I am at work, I am in bed, mostly sleeping.

We had a rich and full day - the dogs got to bark at a possum on my fence (possum is fine - my dogs are really pathetic at actually catching anything) and I had friends over for dinner.

Feeling more at ease since R replied to my email. Just the validation that it was 'intense' was enough. Also led me sideways into my word for the year....

@LonesomeTonight about the whole wedding ring thing—I’m not a T, but I have a similar role in mental health at my job and internship, and I didn’t wear my wedding rings for like 6 months. I stopped wearing band first bc one of the diamonds fell out, and then I stopped wearing the engagement ring bc the diamond was loose. Then I started wearing just the band again bc I figured the diamond already fell out and I wanted to have at least one ring on that finger so people wouldn’t think I’m single lol. Now I wonder if any clients noticed this. I hope I didn’t cause any distress, oops Couch 210: The Abundant Couch

On wedding rings...I used to notice when the therapist would wear her ring set only because you saw the ring from a mile away. It didn’t bother me if she had it on or not but it was just noticeable because of how big and shiny the darn thing was.

I didn't wear my wedding rings for a few years because I had to take them off with my last pregnancy due to swelling and my hands never did go back in size (nor the rest of my body if the truth be told. LOL!). Took me awhile to remember to find a jeweler, take it in, get it resized, etc.

My T's ring is gigantic. (I guess it's probably a wedding/engagement combo thing? I know nothing about classy rings since we just got matching titanium bands on Etsy) It must get caught on things all the time.

@velcro003, maybe you just need to try a few different places before you find a good fit. I used to volunteer at this local museum when I was in school. I liked the museum and its mission, but the real reason that I was motivated to go back was that the people there (employees and other volunteers) were always really nice and made me feel welcome. It's so comforting sometimes to have places where you feel like you belong. Maybe you can experiment a little to find somewhere where you feel like that?
