How Are You Feeling Right Now?

Apologies for the misread, as well! I thought you'd said, you see one (a therapist) every few months... but it seems as though this shall/or will be your first time? Good luck! Don't lie, try to be honest, as much as you can. And it's okay, to just say, "I'm uncomfortable, or not comfortable disclosing that -- or talking about that right/or just now." If she or he asks you something you're not prepared to discuss yet with a total stranger whom you're entrusting with your care, have therefore placed your complete confidence & trust in, but still - can take some time, and just a minute - to get to know them enough to feel good about speaking "freely," about some certain topics. That might be of the more delicate in nature or variety & especially/and furthermore, if you haven't discussed them with anybody or anyone before~ :) Peace!
Yeah, it will be my first time! Probably should have done it a few years ago but better late than never, I guess. Thanks so much for the support :3
 
Frustrated. After a couple of weeks being full-bore on work and other activities (tai chi test) I wanted to be home alone for a weekend to clean, get my affairs in order, etc. Then a friend called up needing a friend to talk to and be with so I agreed to go to dinner with him. fortunately I will only do dinner (He's a Veteran and today in the USA is veteran's Day. Many restaurants offer free meals to verterans and he intended to eat at as many restaurants as he could. ) So I will try to clean and try for tomorrow to be my day of rest. It's probably for the best. But I wanted to get ready for Thanksgiving and C_H_R_I_S_T_M_A_S. And to have some down time and get some badly needed exercise. The next few weekends will be busy until Christmas break.

My Dad has sepsis and is very unwell. I need to pluck up the courage to phone the hospital and see how he was over night. We have been told to prepare ourselves as he may not make it through this. Sometimes I feel calm, other times, I can’t stop crying. The waiting is the worst part.
Very sad to hear. You, and him, are in my thought for only the best...

What in actuality is wrong with people? You open your heart to them, make it clear that you don't simply have sex with random people (the whole FWB bullshit they seem to like), and then they tell you they're horny and want to go jerk off. Whatever happened to...well, manners, for one. Dignity. Respect for other people??? Fucking TMI to the nth degree.
Some folk just don't have any couth. They were just never hit with their home training and behave like it.

I'm shattered, not only from the early wake up but boy I've put some hours in today. I'm hanging the laptop up now, honest, I've planned tomorrows workflow and I should be able to do more quality hours. Made a few errors today but who doesn't! I'll need the money for the heating bill as the temperature has really dropped, I've decided to put it on for a few hours. And after I finish this entry, I think I'm going to head to the pizza site and order a feast!!!! Nothing like a delivery person appearing through the mist and cold with warm food!

Thank you so much. That’s exactly what this is like. Expecting a phone call at any time, not knowing if he will rally or whether this is the end. We have been in this position before, but it’s by far the worst it’s ever been. The hospital keep trying to give him different antibiotics to see if one will work. Some days we think there is an improvement and then the next he’s worse again. Just one day at a time. My biggest fear is not being there at the end. I don’t want him to be on his own or just with the nurses. I want to be with him.

I'm feeling really, really lonely. There's no one in my life I'm close enough to talk to about my feelings deep down inside. And I feel empty. I just sleep 12 hours a day and do nothing meaningful the rest of the time. I'm so exhausted.

pretty good day. we went out in the truck ( 06 ram quad cab hemi 4x4 ) because the car is hibernating for the winter. my wife wanted to go to a christmas craft show and we found 2 more so she was pleased that she got to go to 3 of them. once she starts ringing the bell for the salvation army she works 6 days a week. after that i gave her a choice for take out. she could have italians, 5 guys burgers or longhorn steakhouse outlaw ribeye, she chose longhorn lol, bad thing is i'm waiting for my ozempic, i was supposed to have it thursday and now they are hoping for monday

how is it so fast that next month is christmas? 💀
ikr!!! A house near me is already in full swing with illuminated inflated snowmen and reindeer and just 2 posts above a Christmas craft fair was mentioned! It seems only yesterday it was summer. I don't know how Americans also deal with Thanksgiving! 😂 Halloween and Christmas/New Year are enough to deal with Oct-Dec!
 
I love Sunday mornings as a rule. The world staying quiet a little longer. I’m having some really bad days feeling bad and stuck in the house and so I just took a drive at 5 am. Driving without impediment used to be really soothing. No one basically on the roads and I got on the freeway system for an hour plus so I wouldn’t have to deal with low speeds and lights. I hadn’t been into Houston proper for a long time and without traffic it was a perfect time to take a look see at new and different. And the Christmas lights are shining everywhere 🎄💚 4AC6AF40-CEED-40D6-AF26-3037AAC4BD25.jpeg
