Doesn’t pretty much everyone have borderline traits? It’s a diagnosis I dislike for many reasons—categories that can apply to other mental illnesses, it’s applied to women more than men, it’s often applied to “difficult” patients, and providers use it to shame. Not saying it doesn’t exist but it can be abused. |

I feel like I'm letting down or frustrating T2 because I'm "stuck." I'm not doing 100% better, but I feel like I've made a lot of changes since January. Maybe he feels like he's not helping me much or my own perception. I want to be yell that we're in the middle of a pandemic, I'm trying to basically be a single mom of 4, dealing with CPS, trying to go to school, etc. I'm trying and I feel like I should apologize for not being where others want me to be right now and feel like I'm a burden to others when I talk about the same stuff.

I ALWAYS get it SOOOOO wrong!! Its like i have math dyslexia. I fill out a couple of boxes, then im like, who the heck added THIS up?? And i have a BS in math, so im usually pretty good at numbers, but soduko just THROWS me. Really. I am haunted by a soduko gremlin who changes my answers or changes the preprinted numbers when im not looking at them. There is NO other explanation!

Right, Penny Press! You could have been the next Will Shortz. I guess everyone does have some borderline traits--I feel like I have more than many though... but I agree that it tends to be applied to women more and has a stigma. Like I've read that many T's won't work with borderline, which seems wrong to me. Meanwhile, when I asked ex-MC (in joint session) if he thought I could be borderline, he told a story about how, in grad school, he was studying some questionnaire, and his roommate asked what it was for because it all fit him, and he said borderline personality. So he said his roommate and best friend was borderline. But didn't answer my question... |

Ugh, I feel close to relapsing on some negative behavior/coping mechanism. Monday will be 4 months if I make it that far. I'm supposed to talk to Pastor T on Monday though I could email him before hand. I don't really want to because I'm afraid he is going to flip out. I don't want to end up back at the hospital again, although it feels like how I felt before I was hospitalized. Dang it. I was just like oh, I'm getting better and then the last three days have totally stunk.

Well we did sing with our masks on and stood six feet apart. But when you are as small of a company as we are, if one of us gets sick, we are probably all going to get it anyway. It was some mighty good cheesecake. One of the guy's mom's made it. It was like cheesecake factory good. MMM. I'm full now. I better eat something vegetarian for dinner.

Other than the broccoli, that sounds delicious. Can I have a bowl with a little parmesan on top when it's finished?

Today I told my T I need a break. Financially and mentally. I'm getting into some big stuff in EMDR and just want to focus on that. She was so kinda and understanding. She told me she would still be there and that she was part of my journey. I speak to her on June 18 next so it is not me never going back. Just some space. Dreading EMDR but ready to get this stuff done.
Oh and hi! |

Does anyone remember a few years back there was a commercial for an antidepressant where there was a woman constantly weighed down by an elephant on her chest?
For some reason I feel weighed down by that elephant right now. I have this unshakeable sense I’ve wasted my life. And yet I’m pretty sure I haven’t. *goes to get drunk with chihiro* |

:My father is having people over tonight for a bbq. Totally not social distancing at all. My oldest went outside and told them, "Hasn't anyone heard of social distancing?!" I'm keeping my distant. I don't care if our state lifted it's restrictions at the beginning of the month, I don't want to have a bunch of people over at my house.
