Didn't turn up to any of my groups this week

Posted by capricorn on November 16, 2006, at 20:37:26


Tuesday's i missed through oversleeping even though i had gone
to bed at midnight as opposed to the usual 3-5 am .
Today i just couldn't be bothered. Just feel tired and totally blah.
Had both the lady who runs 2 of the groups and my care co ordinator phone up to see how i was.
Saying how you are is not so easy when your moods are s o transitory and in the moment.Today it feels like i could easily just crash out for ever
but yesterday when i saw the pdoc all i could do was prattle on about
inconsequential things as at that time i felt in a reasonably good place.
When you are caught in the moment it seems like it's never going
to be any different but afterwards i just end up realising how
emotionally shallow and transient i really am.

Like feeling good before you go to sleep and saying all the things you want to do tomorrow and then tomorrows here and you don't want to do a thing. Love Phillipa

That's one way of puting it.

I wonder why you're so hard on yourself? It's possible that you really are "emotionally shallow," but isn't it also possible that you experienced emotional reactivity when you saw your pdoc? That can be part of mood disorders, you know.

Really, I wanted to say that I'm sorry you're being so hard on yourself over this. I feel sad that you don't seem to be cutting yourself a little more slack, giving yourself a little more space to feel whatever it is you do feel.

I wish you peace.
