I lost it in therapy group this morning. Triggered right out of the room for some deep breathing and centering stretches.
Three members of the group had bad mother weeks and triggered one another into an especially rousing round of mother bashing that the group leader was unable to bring into check.
I had a bad adult son week and reacted as though my 32 year old cherub had snuck into my therapy session for another round of telling me what I think. I get to cuss in group. We are all vets, after all.
Turns out another member of the group was grieving the recent death of her mother and a grown, drug addicted daughter. She thanked me.
The group leader was finally able to get the group on track.
I am still feeling like my own worst nightmare.
Do I really have to be an old mother? Can I leave for China now?

I haven't written in my diary on my computer since May because I thought that my computer was dying. I got away from writing but my computer is hanging in there. I think that I will start writing in it again. It's so therapeutic.

First, I hope everyone is doing well, and continuing to fight that good fight! Keep up the great work on yourselves; I'm rooting for all of you!So, I started doing therapy at the beginning of the year, when I was in my most depressed state, but with my therapist, I made big changes and steps in the right direction. But, over a month ago, she couldn't take my insurance anymore, and I had to stop...
Life willing, we will all be stronger for the practice.
