After my blow-up on the social board during my last mini-bender, I think I need to take a break and focus on real-life healing. A review of my calendar shows that I tend to drink when I post more.
I really hope to get into the "Borderline Personality Disorder Skills Manual". I'll do it at home on my own. Add to that meditating twice a day, a few asanas, exercise, reading... there I go again, I just can't keep it simple. I always NEED one more thing: "The Jerk" sums it up.
I'm hopeful. May try emsam when it comes out.

The boards have triggered my drinking in the past. Walking away from the keyboard seems like such a simple solution, but it's not easy to implement. Just of like not taking that first drink (for me).
Verne, take your break and concentrate on healing your mind and body. Peace is there for all of us.

I didn't think you were a jerk---just a red blooded male expressing his opinion. though it may differ somewhat from my views, I enjoyed the education and hope you come back.

Hi verne,
I wish I knew how I could help. It sounds like you have some good self-care skills. I hope they help. You've reminded me that I need to pay more attention to self-care, too. I haven't mediated or done yoga in ages.You're welcome to join us on the Psychology board when we go through the Skills Training manual together. Not sure when that will start. I can let you know, though, if you're not reading posts.
Take care. I'm glad you're doing what you need, but please know you'll also be missed.

Seems like a popular book these days. My T says that the agency I'm with might be offering the full course soon too. Until then, I'm just working with my current T on it now. Had done some work with a previous T as well. It does help.
