but sitting is A+, would use that method again.
BTDT.
Zoe: Is there any way I'm gonna get out of this with honor and dignity? Wash: You're pretty much down to ritual suicide, lambie-toes.

Spike's Bitches 48: I Say, We Go Out There, and Kick a Little Demon Ass.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Steph, keeping it bottled in isn't a good option. And this is about as safe a place to freak out as there is.
And you don't have time NOT to deal with your feelings, one way or another.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Steph, it seems to me talking to Tim would be a good thing? He's your support system, right there, and he loves you, and he already knows you're prone to anxiety attacks. And he loves you.

I don't want to be a disappointment to him. I don't want to talk to him about how I'm a huge failure because it's just going to emphasize that he deserves so much better than me.

If you think he's going to be disappointed in you, after having known you for so long, then apparently you're very good at hiding things from him, because I think he knows most everything about you by now and loves you a whole lot.

I just can't.

I don't want to be a disappointment to him. I don't want to talk to him about how I'm a huge failure because it's just going to emphasize that he deserves so much better than me.
You know...I don't want to tell you shit about your husband, but that's not him. He's not like that. He loves you - not some generic perfect wife you have made up in your head to torture yourself with.

OK, if you can't, you can't. Go hug a critter, take 15 seconds to let a critter adore you, because they don't care.

Because books.
Steph, you don't have to talk to Tim or anyone about anything you don't want to. And if us piling on isn't helping, then we should stop.
I just want you to be safe right now. Would it help to talk to someone on the phone? Even if it was someone on a hotline? Sometimes it helps just to know someone else is on the other end of the line, even if you're not talking. And you're more than welcome to breathe/cry/mumble into the phone with me if you think it would help -- 484-319-6530.

Would it help to talk to someone on the phone?
I can't. I mean, thank you SO much, but I can't. I'm hyperventilating panic attacking still and trying to get all this work done at the same time. I can't talk -- literally, because I'm hyperventilating so hard. And also because I gotta keep getting stuff done. God, I am failing SO HARD.
