Kinda glad to be going home today. As long as I can get away from here for a bit, everything is lovely.
How are you feeling?

Thank you for your words.
Things have improved for me since, so I'm feeling more positive now. Sometimes it's just very hard to see past the negative thoughts.

I had an accident today... I was picking up a tree branch, and when I stood up, a twig pierced my ear drum... Or in technical terms, I have a perforated tympanic membrane. Which the ER doc said that it will heal on it's own, more than likely. Right now, everything is a bit muffled and difficult to hear out of it... I tell ya, if it wasn't for bad luck I wouldn't have any luck at all....::

Thanks guys! I appreciate it.... It does hurt, but not as badly as I thought it would. I think what sucks mostly is not being able to hear out of it, and then the constant worry if it will get better??? <crosses my fingers>

Mixed. I'm happy cause class got cancelled today, but not so happy that my manager made me take a table 10 minutes after we were supposed to be closed - had to stay an extra hour and I have to go back tomorrow morning.
Happy about my costume, but I feel like a loser cause they're having a party after work and I'm postive I'd win the costume contest but I need some excuse not to go cause I know that unless the bus girl showed up, I'd just be standing in a corner not talking or feeling awkward. My manager was like "Bring your friends" and I'm busy thinking "The one friend I know well enough to bring probably won't even go"

Im sorry you experienced that tonight, I know how it feels. I hear the "Bring your friends" and I am like what friends? And I may have one or two i know really well and feel comfortable around but like you said they probably wouldnt go. Then there are the times they invite me out just by myself and I just cannot do it, the anxiety just isnt worth it. It takes its toll mentally and contributes to very negative thoughts, at least for myself.

Yeah, I agree with every last word you said. I've been invited by coworkers to go out clubbing or to keggers but besides me not feeling close enough to them, drinking isn't my thing so I feel even more alienated from everyone. I remember a couple of coworkers said "So...do you do anything besides work or school?" Ouch.
On the upside, at the very least, we come off as normal enough so that people assume we have a bunch of friends?

I know it is difficult but you shouldnt take that offensive, there is nothing wrong with not drinking....at all. I used to use alcohol to self medicate all the time and still do and while i feel great and comfortable inside my skin while im intoxicated, i feel worse the next morning, physically and mentally like being down in a big hole. Not to mention that it takes so much will power to say no in that situation. In my opinion.

Lets hope so. I suppose if the doc said it will get better, it's because there's a high chance that you will get better
