You know those days when you think its another day like its tuesday but you think its Wednesday... and you keep doing everything as if its wednesday...
Well I lost a lot of time. I lost 3 days this week due to "holidays" and I just came backlast night freaked out that it was Thursday and i didnt knwo where my week had gone or what I had done.
I thought it was still monday night. and I was getting ready for TUESDAY, laying out my work clothes when Liz asked "isnt it casual day tomorrow" but tomorrow is tuesday, as far as i know we are wearing business tomorrow... no tomorrow is friday... WHAT???
Oh man I havent lost that much time in a long time. Apparently, I had a sinus infection missed another day and a half of work, when I already missed monday, and just little everyday things...
Then Finally after the shock and acceptance of lost time... and getting reoriented. I was getting ready for bed and I had a horrible flashback followed by a panic attack that I couldnt get control of. Thank goodness Liz was there and grabbed a paperbag... it was bad. The anxiety didnt go away until 1am and i finally relaxed and fell asleep with Liz holding my hand. When I woke up to see my Psychiatrist today I had suck a migraine. I took my meds and went to see her... she tells me I can stick my anxiety meds under my tongue and it will work as quickly as the shot. OMG!!! why didnt you tell me that before??!!! all this time I could have made my anciety go away that much faster.
Ok so after a kind of tough session with her I leave and have to pay for parking only they dont except debit cards... so i have to go back in go to the bank take out money go back and the price of my ticket went up... GRRR fine... so now I have to go and try to find a gas station, a gas station that is possibly within my price range, but of course I am in the expensive part of the San Fernando Valley and the cheapest gas price is $3.40... so since I am running on fumes I suck it up and pay... get 4 gallons of gas for my left over $14 from my $6 parking... and try to go to work. So I go to work... finally I think no thinking... just cancelling... right as I am about to put on my headphones my supervisor calls me and tells me that HR wants a meeting with me about FMLA/VPA . "You are treading on thin ice here Amber" says the HR manager, we really need to get this figured out... "what is there to figure out" I scream in my head... "I am sick you dont care... you wont help me... whats the point anymore" But I say "I know... what can we do to fix this" so we have an hour long meeting about my leave and disability.. and finally after its all sorted out, I get to go back to my desk and not think. So here I am not thinking.. and venting... All of this is because of my DID... Sometimes I wish i was normal... but I know they protected me and they helped me... I love my alters, but I wish the rest of the world would understand... so frustrated...
