Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

I can't think of anything encouraging to say (too early) but I wish I could. Good luck with the move, Hil. I hope your migriane takes itself off to another planet. sj, I hope your OB appt goes smoothly.

Thanks, WS. I'm sure it will be fine, but hibernating sounds better right now.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

The moving guys are here, and starting to pack things up. Migraine is still pounding, but at least I don't have to do any work right now.

One of the movers found my Klein bottle and thought it was really cool. I tried to explain what it was.

The OB appointment went well. The doctor couldn't book the 10th so csection date is now first thing on the 11th.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Good luck on the move, Hil. Sorry to hear you have a migraine.

Also sorry to hear about the don't wannas, sj.

I really need to stop "cleaning" by shoving random things in drawers and boxes.

That's my forte! Although right now I'm going to suck it up and go mop the kitchen and dining room floors. They desperately need it.

Thanks, Burrell. I went to my appointment, lunch, Target, and Old Navy, which isn't bad for having a case of the don't wannas. Now, I plan on not moving off the couch until TCG gets home.

Thrive to spite them

So I didn't make it to group therapy.

Well I went and got my hair cut and was miserable because it was supercuts and I got a stylist I don't like. Then I had lunch that was disappointing. I felt I could do the go and do therapy and be miserable.

I got there early and sat in my car(weather was actually cool) and tried to distract myself until I started having an anxiety attack and then I took klonopin and decided to go home. And then I wasn't ahving an anxiety attack and took a nap.

I think trying to go to group where I wreste with feelings of guilty, shame, inadequecy, jealousy, frustration and mental browbeating and defeat/resignation that are all triggered by other participants (not the therapy part) and then going to individual therapy to try and deal with those emotions are maybe not best. I don't know.

Good luck with the move Hil !I'm sure it will go great!

sj ! you're ltc is going to be here on the 11th!! So exciting

Ann, that's a ferret.

((((askye)))) It sounds like your group therapy is leading to all sorts of negative emotions without any compensating benefit. Might a different group be more helpful? Might group therapy just not be a helpful setting for you?
