In reply to Terra, I hope I didn't embarrass you..., posted by judy1 on June 10, 2002, at 14:46:26
> I just wanted to express my gratitude and hope you didn't take it the wrong way in my post to Wendy. This has been such a one-way street, I wanted to see how you were doing. Is your therapy going well? Don't feel you need to answer, I just wish I had some way I could give back the support you've given me. Take care, Judy
I'm not embarrassed. Sometimes I embarrass myself because I just keep talking and talking.... :-)
Frankly, this exchange has been helpful for me to know that I am still a sane person. It's kept me grounded. In my 3D life, I have recently had to go to court to file for a protective order against the spouse (a MAJOR feat considering my main form of coping is to h-i-d-e.... learned a long time ago) So now I have to go to court in three weeks for the hearing to see if they'll make it permanent (it's temporary until then.) My therapist will be there, so it should go well. And recently I have had to listen to my inlaws/family gossip about me and know that I can do nothing about it.... which brought on some sort of switch last night because I woke up this morning totally disoriented (an obvious sign.) Oh, and to add to that my mother is coming to visit in a few weeks..... haven't seen her in a couple of years on purpose.. talk about stress! and my therapist is on a week's vacation. :-) (However, I will say that I am handling this week without having therapy incredibly well... which shows me that I am starting to take care of myself on some level.)
So, you see, it helps to get out of myself and talk to other people. It's very grounding. It looks like we have helped each other. :-)
Thanks for asking.
Terra
