what I'm doing today to help me heal

Posted by llurpsienoodle on March 22, 2008, at 7:30:11

I'm going to stay busy. Unfortunately this involves going to work :( :( :(

I couldn't find a way out of it, esp. because it's easter holiday.

I did my 30 minutes of journalling and went for a quick freezing walk down to the pond.

I stayed in the present for about 15 seconds at a time.

I took a nibble of klonopin, less than as directed, because I have to go to work and need my wits about me.

I have to get ready to go now.

hope this finds you all in good spirits.

more on DBT later. I'm going to the bookstore later on. I already picked up "Cognitive Behavioral Treatment of Borderline Personality Disorder" by Linehan. Now all I need is the skills workbook. Theory + skills + therapeutic alliance + h on board + stable on meds = stable llurpsie.

Try to find time to do something you enjoy as well. Small joys are good for the soul.

Don't I remember that you gave your three weeks notice? How much is left?

Working is a good thing. If you are working then your mind is less likely to start thinking about the bad stuff.

Work is likely a contributing factor towards my mental breakdown last week. yuck. I wrote my letter of resignation and only have 3 more days to work.

sigh...

At least I have some kind of a job lined up in May-ish.

1) take a walk to the pond. wear jogging shoes. JUST in case I feel like running around the block. T told me I should. If I exercise 5 times, I get to buy myself a bouquet. I need to consequate my actions. build in rewards

2) after walk/jog I will eat breakfast and play on babble.

3) after breakfast I will compute some numbers for a paper that I'm working on. The reward for this will be that a certain someone will get off my *SS.

4) I will take a break and shower

5) I will have marriageT

good morning!
