great!

I got my car fixed, so it no longer leaks.
Since she got hurt, I pampered her.
She got a car wash, vacuumed, and I went and bought some stuff to get the fog off my headlights. : )
I had already got them cleaner yesterday, but this stuff made it crystal clear.

Oh and a smelly good thing that attaches to the air conditioner vent : )

I love when stuff is clean and smells good ; D
 
I'm worried. I have an appointment with my therapist tomorrow and an appointment with my psychologist on Friday. I want to get the point across to them that I don't think my medication is working and that I may need to try something new, but I have this insane will to please people and say, "Yes, I'm fine, my meds are fine, nothing wrong here!" I've got to figure out a plan of attack by Friday or I'll just end up screwing myself (wanky!) yet again.

I feel weird. I just made arrangements to take a train early tomorrow to visit a friend, and that means I should be asleep right now. But I can´t sleep, I´m too excited about tomorrow.

I had the very same problem with haagen dazs pralines and cream last week

My god they are lush, I think have tried every possible flavour lol... Yes I'm an ice cream addict!

ohnoo!! don't do itttt!! XD

Lol ::p: about 2 years ago I brought £50 pounds worth and stored it, sadly it didn't stay stored for long since I kept eating it lool. So tempting I love my ice cream booooohooooo. ::(:

You deserve to have a medication that works for you...please don't allow yourself to go one more week with meds that aren't doing their job. It is their obligation to find something that will work for you, that is what you are paying for, so don't be afraid to speak up. It's not like they are going to be upset with you for admitting that a medication is not doing its job. I went through many, many medications before finding my perfect one, and I'm so glad that I never gave up. Good luck to you. :)

Thanks, guys. I think maybe I'll have a dummy conversation with my mom as my psychologist and work the conversation out before hand. Then I can have some confidence going in.

Go in naked with clown makeup on and go in and sit down, act totally normal. Don't need to say a thing, they'll realize the meds aren't working ::p:...

I feel like I'm cheating in life when I avoid things.
I feel guilty. Not for what I have done, but for what I have not done.::(:

I know that feeling well ::eek::
Is it fear that is stopping you? If its any help, lately I've found that its better just to ignore the fear, and do these things anyway. Even if the result isn't what you were hoping for, it eradicates any feeling of guilt and there's a good feeling of self-harmony once you know that you at least tried.

yes, fear

and sometimes it's too strong to overcome

and then it's also compounded with the fear of people seeing through my disguise and figuring out just how afraid i am

and being overwhelmed with the shear enormity of all that needs to be accomplished - and the resulting fear of doing the wrong thing

i'm the deer - the world is the headlights

and i stand motionless, unable to decide which way to turn

awaiting the inevitable

Excited, might be getting a puppy tomorrow, it's the perfect weather for dog walking right now too. I really feel like this is a step forward for me, I know I will take the dog for walks despite how anxious I may be feeling.

Slightly nervous at the same time too as I have a cat, and I have had the headache of getting a dog and cat use to each other before, can take a long time for them to even accept each other grudgingly.

Pretty depressed, wish I had some friends I could go out with around my area.. My girlfriend has friends she can go out with but I have nobody and it depresses me to my core. I'm happy for her of course but I can't help comparing her social life to mine and how bad mine is. ::(:

It's hard to do it alone, it's like an addiction, a nasty addiction to avoidant habits. I wish we were all closer to help, because it's hard to do it alone or with ppl that don't understand.
