Thrive to spite them

I am depressed. I just got out of bed at 3:30 today. I did talk to my therapist on Wed and I thought things were ok but I am just .. I don't even know. I think the lockdown stuff is finally getting to me.

There is stuff I was ready to start tackling in therapy but then the pandemic happened. It's hard for me to even feel free to talk to my therapist in the telehealth sessions because the house isn't very well soundproofed and I don't want to be overheard talking about certain things. I guess I could go sit in my car. But I don't really want to do therapy at home or in my car because I can't really separate it and I already have a hard enough time with seeing things or being in certain places and not have every negative thing associated with looping in my head over and over.

So I don't know what to do.

I have an appointment with the meds manager on Feb 8th and i'll talk to her about this as well. Maybe there's something she can offer to help me.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh no, askye, I didn't even think of that part of telehealth therapy. Is there somewhere neutral you could park your car in it?

40 hours a week is more time than they told me to spend on homework in college!!

If anyone remembers my closet issue, I figured it out! I can hand a rod on S-hooks that are designed for flower pots or some shit.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

If you need a laugh, here's a kitten unclear on the concept. Also, since sea shanties are now a thing, here's a space shanty.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Nutritional yeast on popcorn is so good. I figure I probably heard about it here, so thanks. Guess what I'm doing...

Aw, kitty-cat.

I'm happy to report that cat who is worse about getting her claws clipped is getting better. Only took two sittings today, and there was a minimal amount of squirming and pulling the paw away. It's the little victories.

Thank you for the closet update, Jesse! I feel better for knowing that.

That is a tough situation, askye. I know my meds manager has always been enormously helpful for me (with managing everything mental health related, not just meds), I hope yours will be as well.

And my whole not turning things in issue was also def tied to the undiagnosed ADD and fed by shame

Yes, askye, I hope you can find a good solution to the telehealth calls. I totally get that. And that your meds manager has some good ideas to help.

Jesse, good DIYing!

Forty hours a week homework is insane. Good lord.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

I lost an earring at work. It fell out somewhere, don't know where.

In better news, I've scheduled my second COVID vaccine shot.
