Cassie, if you or any of the others need someone to vent at, I've gotten pretty good at over the last twenty years, listening that is. *hugs* My happy thought to all of you.

I'm sorry your day has been so bad, Cassie. But don't worry, the day will end and tomorrow will come.

i'm sorry you're sad! i'll be thinking of you. i hope things get better for you!

I'm happy you've found one good thing about today Sahy. Even the little things can be a highlight.

For me, today for some reason I'm just happy. I rarely have days like this, of just being happy.

Keeping this short, since I think that is more the goal in this thread, but today's therapy session? Went incredibly good! I mean like best ever in twenty something years!

I put the rest of this in my DID thread and my journal thread, but... today the voices were silenced, presences/parts of me... expressed things for me to tell the therapist, and...

A long lost "friend" returned, protected me from the pain presence, and made me feel safe. It was... it was... i don't have good words for what happened today. Therapist was overjoyed to talk with all this stuff for an hour, hehehehehe. And i have yet to have amnesia nor dissociative memory rewriting. Today was a good day that started out bad and got a LOT better <3

That's great, Jo/wronglesson, and that's awesome, remusmdh!

Today, I think there's a couple good things. I was able to come on here and post like heck and help keep myself/others distracted a bit from things going on inside the mind, and I think I'm starting to discover a "new" alter and that they're posting on here, but I"m not sure,and I"m pretty fuzzy right now, so I'll figure it out later.

Today is Dungeons&Dragons day, where we get together with a few friends and play D&D all day (it's a table-top, role-playing game that's a lot of fun). Usually we all enjoy it and it helps to cheer us up, so that's what I'm hoping for today.

This is going to sound weird, but my good thing for today? I was able to take a shower without feeling terrified the entire time. I slip in the shower a lot (I really need those suction things for the bottom) and have a normally constant fear in there. But not today!

Ohhh do I miss D&D. 2000 was the last I played and enjoyed. But after some death threats, and violence... I can barely watch it anymore without becoming upset. Seventeen years of playing and DM'ing, i miss it. A friend at the online community i go to has been... well she needs a game to get into. Really bad times IRL, and... i'm thinking about it again, hard.

Considering I have come to find I have a revulsion for showering thanks to something I can't remember and how hard it is for me to shower at all... I thoroughly see this as a GOOD THING for you today *hugs* congratulations <333


This might be TMI for here, but I don't care until Shay or one of the others tells me to stop. Started going to Second LIfe after a friend badgered me to do it for five years, and for two weeks it had been boring as all snot. But yesterday... over twelve hours (yes, I fixate like that. Only learning "you aren't 20 anymore and have to sleep and eat now" keeps me from being on two, three days straight like I used to do thing. This i why i stopped playing video games nine years ago) of making new friends, research work for stories i'm writing (kat has informally informed me not to mention certain things, so i'm skimming details now), and just a great day in general.

Of course i'm having to avoid the place today so i can pay bills (panic attacks and lack of energy had kept me from doing it for two months), replying to emails, messages, writing groups, etc. But it was worth it. And! No mood drop today. Well yet at least >_> I have an online informal class in a couple hours that might push that, but... worth it for now.

I started being afraid a year ago, one day fine, next day so terrified my husband had to coach me in there. I didn't start slipping until that fear started overwhelming me after I got it. Like you, I have no idea where this comes from.

I'm glad your having a great day! I've always wanted to try Second Life, but I can't now. My husband feels uncomfortable with me even talking to people on here, Facebook, and my weight loss forum. He's super paranoid about the "online life".
