"so sad"

Journal Entry for March 2, 2009 Mood
Monday, March 2, 2009
I'm not in a good place mentally. I don't want to elaborate right now. It's just not very good. Every addiction that I've battled is battling with me right now. I'm fighting with all I've got and its so very very hard! I'm making it by right now, and that's the best I can do. I'm trying to be pro-active in my recovery on all levels, but it's painful and hard right now. My emotional energy is drained. I'm so sad. I don't like myself real well right now. I have a facial rash that looks pretty bad right now and isn't resolving real well. That is upsetting me as well. I am not up to elaborating any more then this right now. I'm just not well right now. I'm following my medication regiment as prescribed, I'm following my treatment plan to the best of my ability, and I'm talking to my therapist, but I'm losing my regular therapist, Blake and I'm starting with a new one, Lisa, tomorrow. I'm not handle this loss of Blake the best right now either. As someone once said "stop the world, I wanna get off". I'm doing my best though...I'm really trying hard to recover of this slump I'm in. It's just painfully hard.

    I'm really sorry that things are so hard for you right now. I hope that things get easier soon and that you are able to beat all of your addiction battles. Here for you. I'm sorry that you are losing your therapist, and hope that the transition goes smoothly and that she is just as good as Blake was to you.

    I know what it is like to start with a new therapist. The only advice I can give is to give her a chance.

    Hoping to put you in a good place......hugs!

    Hoping you are feeling better today. I know what it is like to lose one therapist and start with another. I can be very hard but like Robeta suggested, at least give her a chance. You may become really good friends.

    Addictions can be a very hard thing to overcome. I know there are times when mine want to creep in again. It is those times when I have to reley on my network of people who understand where I am at and use them. Sounds like you are doing that. good for you!!!

    I am here if you need to talk.
