So far I'm doing ok. My mom needed me to help her run an errand, so that kept me busy for about an hour. Then I took a nap. I'm still feeling less than happy, but I no longer feel such a strong urge to hurt myself.

Journaling sounds like a really good idea. Thanks for that. I used to journal, but I had kind of forgotten.

Thanks for checking on me.

	"It's just like the story of the grasshopper and the octopus. All year long, the grasshopper kept burying acorns for winter, while the octopus mooched off his girlfriend and watched TV. But then the winter came, and the grasshopper died, and the octopus ate all his acorns. Also he got a race car. Is any of this getting through to you?" ~ Philip J. Fry
