Dear DS diary,
The career center called me back this morning.  I have an appointment with them for Tuesday morning at 10am.  Unfortunately the moment I finalized it my monsters came out to make me wish I had never contacted the center to begin with.  They torment me.  But I have no effective means of stopping them and no longer anywhere reliable to go for the need-you-now moments that are starting to become more frequent now.  I have too few Skype contacts for it to be a safe haven.
The study guide for the PCCE exam will be here tomorrow, and with the worries I have now that only means a brand new world of hurt will soon be unavoidable in my current condition.  When my parents put in a request to go out to dinner without an appetizer tomorrow, there is no way I could say no.  A stress eating episode is imminent so I may as well just let it take place.

Friend, if I may be so bold, you need to relax. Really. You know I understand how hard it can be to shut the \'voices\' up, but I also know that it\'s so incredible once you see a tiny bit of progress! Go out with your parents...eat a normal amount...then go home and congratulate yourself! You gotta make some baby steps when the opportunities present themselves, you know? Just try to see things in a brighter light...the course arriving doesn\'t have to be a world of hurt...it can be an exciting new addition to your qualifications. It\'s all how you see things, you know? Wishing you peace
