do you ever forget what you want to talk about?

Posted by obsidian on May 17, 2010, at 12:24:31

I went to pdoc today and very often what happens is that I forget to mention some important things about how I am doing, stuff about the meds, my reactions to them...had a hard time remembering what I even needed prescriptions for
and then there are those times with my T where I feel like I have nothing to talk about, and then I feel stagnant, like if there is no immediate distress to talk about (though I'll forget that too) that I am not talking about gains I'd like to make.

I had another one of those brief deja vu things, it's like a whole body experience. I should be used to them by now, but they are so freaky that I'm not.

Lately what I've noticed is that I have an extremely negative stream of self talk. It's often about how negatively other people might perceive me, how I do things wrong, how incompetent I am. I think no wonder I am so anxious all the time, it's exhausting.

eh, I just figured I'd write this down before I forget it.
thanks,
sid

I forget what I want to talk about and then I forget what we actually did talk about. The stress of someone else knowing things about me puts me in the "i can't think" mode. Sorry your feeling like that...it can be frustrating!

Similar to a grocery list, I have written things down to talk to the T about. Just to make sure I don't avoid them. I can have serious things to discuss but go in and act as though everything is fine.
