Thank you.

Am kind of isolating myself right now.
Too needy to be around anyone.

[ThinkingofRecovery]

Just letting you know that I am thinking of you Katie.

Thank you.

I emailed my managers about a work issue, yesterday evening. Been waiting on them to respond to one I sent earlier, this week, but no response. So I emailed them last night.
And I feel ashamed and stirred up.

The trouble with isolating yourself is that you end up feeling more needy and it becomes a vicious circle. The best thing is to start off with something small that makes you feel part of something. I always get worse during holidays as the less I need to go out the less I do and it gets to the point where I don't want to leave my bed. I wish I could take my own advice...

[Stellata]

Thanks.. I know that. My split off selves don't. That vicious circle is... vicious.

I got an email from my manager/s. We have a meeting set up on Wednesday morning to talk about it. Nervous, but relieved.

I know that understanding doesn't mean that you can do it, but I know that my CP is really firm on telling that even if I don't want to go out I have to for my own well being. Maybe once the work situation is cleared up you could plan a nice treat for yourself?

[Stellata]

Maybe. Thanks. :)

Next thing after/along with the work situation is my flatmates' son's 4th birthday party. That'll be a social challenge! I want to be involved. But I'm having a hard time trusting myself.
I do feel slightly more relaxed having this work meeting set up. I won't have to carry things in relation to it on my own.

hope things start gettting better for you.
im not good with advice right now.
we are all here for you though

[whirlpools]

Needing people is okay, Katie. Don't punish yourself or those who want to help you and support with you and be with you, by isolating yourself. Thinking of you.

[Stellata]

Thank you both.
Things are difficult.

[whirlpools]

Would you like to talk about what's going on at the moment?

[Stellata]

I pretty much have it in other thread/s. Because I feel so lost right now.

It's a combo, really.
Approaching challenges at work.
Hormonalness.
Confusion.
Anger.
Paranoia. [hormonal exacerbation]

[pea soup]
