Well Thanks HappyChaiTea,
I spoke with her, on a whim, nothing planned and I think it helped. It helped me whether or not it helped her I am not sure.
I told my boss, who said she is happy we worked things out.
But the xanax is not helping my dissociation. I guess it means in therapy I need to go one step further.
I got a book today, I hope it helps me feel better about therapy and my issues with trust and getting into why I am dissociation so much right now.
But thanks for asking. You are so sweet.
How is that sweet puppy. I saw his photos. He is beautiful.

Hi Rk,
I am not sure what can help with the dissociating. I have a precrip. for xanax but it doesn't seem to help me much for anything serious, seems like taking a sugar pill or something. I wish I knew what to do too. I have been thinking a lot about what you told me about how things can make one dissociate but you have no idea why. I get like that when I am driving, and I have to make sure I am extra careful, like I have to remember HOW to drive again.
OH, my puppy, I just love her! She is so wild and won't let me hold her long though. She is so soft, like rabbit fur and I love to pet her, but the only time she sits still for that is when she is sleeping! lol Her puppy dog eyes melt my heart, lol.

It helped me whether or not it helped her I am not sure.Yeah, she sounds like a piece of work for sure, I m sure you haven't seen the best of her yet because she was probably being on her best behavior. But just remember it is ALL HER, not you.
> I told my boss, who said she is happy we worked things out.
>Of course, because she still gets to have you! I am sure she knows about this other women, maybe that is why that women seems so jealous.

I am wondering what step that is, but tell only if you feel comfortable with talking about it though.> I got a book today, I hope it helps me feel better about therapy and my issues with trust and getting into why I am dissociation so much right now.

If it helps, can you tell me what it is. I do trust my current T to an extent, but since what happened to me with my other T's, I am still on guard.
You take care of yourself, you are a special one! When do your classes start?

Hi HappyCT,
Yeah so far so good. She has actually been almost pleasant. But today for me, not so good. I had a hard time actually being there again. And I took the xanax. For two days now I have taken it.
But it is not helping the dissociation. And the derealization. The feeling of not being there but being there. That makes zero sense.
Sometimes the room will just suddenly come back in clarity. Or I feel like I am seeing things from a tunnel. Sigh. I just don't get it.The going deeper part is actually telling my t stuff I don't even think about to myself. Because I think, just a theory really, is that if I open up to him with that stuff that makes me even dissociate when I am alone and thinking about it, then telling him will make things messier perhaps. It is this whole trust him but trust myself to tell stuff I am scared to talk about. I just don't know where it will lead. This is what I told him the last two sessions.
The book I got is specifically on DID and how to get more from therapy and it is not only for therapists to read but actually for DID people along with their families. To help each understand what is going on and not to be afraid to trust and get help.
It seems like a good one when I perused it. But it needs to taken slowly since it is a little triggering too.
And my classes start I think in June. I went looking on the website of the university and got sidetracked by my transcripts. I am still awaiting information on how they will credit my 1st degree toward credits for the second one.
There seems to be a problem but the admissions director for the School of Science said she would take care of it and I would receive a packet.
Thanks for asking. I am withdrawing from topamax and feel like crap right now. take care,
give the pup a hug from me :)

PS thanks for saying I am special. A person can't hear that enough!
