I'm not sure if I'm doing okay...or if it's closer to bad...but anyway... It's been a long day...I woke up way too early at 6am and couldn't get back to sleep. So much for sleeping until 9:45am when I had my alarm set for. *sigh* I sort of just lazed around all morning until about 11am when I had to get ready to go out. I had a tour of a clubhouse for people with mental health disorders/illnesses...or whatever other word you choose to use. It was very hard to be there...I could feel myself dissociating but couldn't do anything about it. I had a hard time keeping myself from cryinhg as well since I just felt so overwhelmed and frustrated with myself. I went to the other sort of clubhouse that I've been a part of afterwards since it is a familiar spot and is right next door. I have to start transitioning from one to the other because of my age. After that I went to the library because I had a couple DVDs on hold for me...so I picked those up. Was planning to go shopping and treat myself to something new today but I couldn't find anything I liked enough to buy so I felt kind of depressed about that. A lot of thins were triggering for me today...the only thing I saw that I wanted to buy was blades but I told myself I couldn't get those. I feel like smoking (I quit a couple years ago)...I felt like drinking, I felt like cutting...why am I getting those urges today...I dunno...Maybe I'm just tired....it's been a long day and I'm glad to be home so I can relax. I am going to try and stay awake a few more hours and then go to sleep early. It's almost 5:30pm here...so 4 more hours will be good.

sounds like you just had an off day... I\'ve had a few of those myself lately... well... I wish I could do something to help. When I have days like this it always helps me to watch a movie or talk to someone I haven\'t talked to in a long time... or just go to bed early. hopefully tomorrow will be better. Much love and prayers... Rachael
