Monday is around the corner

So I did have a good day today. And tomorrow is Sunday. Mondays right in plan view. My drawings are helping. They're like little chart "year in review" colored in drawings. Talking to my friends i met this year at a summer camp for people with disbilities helps as well. I might not have met Meredith the therapist yet but at least i have friends there to support me. Thinking I might write a poem about my fear of meeting Meredith tomorrow but I'm not sure I'm ready to take that step yet.

Congrats on pulling out of yesterday's funk. Way to do the do.

Out of all the therapy journals I've read, the picture journals are, hands down, my faves. Makes me feel deprived for being limited to words.

Don't rush yourself on your readiness. There is time for all of it in the fullness of time.

Ya you!!! You survived another wait.

Thanks for the congrats on pulling out of the funk arfie. Without drawing, I wouldn't have been able to do that. I feel like I could journal every day but drawing is great. Current drawings are themed around "2018 year in review".

    Enough is Enough.  A few years ago, I was on disability and spent a lot of time caring for my Aunt.  One particular Tuesday, I remember standing at my kitchen sink and being excited because I had the day to myself.  I was so happy, until my Aunt called, frantic that she dropped and broke her blood pressure monitor and needed a new one.  I was so wigged out!  I didn't leave my house and...

    I had a really good therapist last year year briefly, but when my insurance changed, I lost her. It was nearly impossible to find someone who could meet after work and wanted to meet in person. It took me five months. I finally found someone through a firm that I used to use and they opened up a location right near my house, like 15 minutes away and she had appointments at 5 and 6.  It was ok...
