Thanks guys I don't know to be honest. I do work experience at puppy classes as I want to run my own as I have a foundation degree in animal behaviour Kerry. I just feel really distressed about it to be honest. Really struggling to cope. X
Thanks Laura. My psych was really proud of me; she said it's a great step not to be over looked. She said even if I dissociate next week or the week after, it's okay as it's going to be a long process but one she's there to helps through.
I feel quite exposed and exhausted - I can take my zopiclone this evening!
I said to K only last week I want to do something with animals and to use my psychology. I would like to be a therapist but there's no way I could do that anytime soon but maybe one day x
Kerry, do you need to see someone for your cut? If it doesn't need medical attention, then make sure you look after it.
Well done for making it to the appointment and getting through it.
Uglyducklin, that is awful that your therapist laughed at your homework, very unprofessional.
I've had a crisis team guy laugh at me a few times, it isn't nice.
did you manage to get to puppy class?
*hugs Liddy and Laura*
Liddy I hope your headache is better and you are able to sleep, Laura I am sorry you had a tough day yesterday.
I went to a museum today with my support worker and some guys from the manchester hearing voices network men's group, there were school kids there in school uniform so I started feeling rather tense and stressed, kept going for a bit, but then felt myself getting distant, so I said to my support worker could we leave now so we did, but I managed to stay in the museum for about an hour.

I am transsexual and homoromantic and proud to be.
I don't trust my therapist and I'm only seeing my social worker one more time before the new cow starts. Its making me so anxious that I'm losing time. Like an hour sometimes. Its scary, I don't know what happens when I'm 'gone'. I dunno, guess I'm after some hugs or reassurance...
GRANT ME THE SERENITY TO ACCEPT THE THINGS I CANNOT CHANGE
THE COURAGE TO CHANGE THE THINGS I CAN
AND THE WISDOM TO KNOW THE DIFFERENCE
You replied and that is worth a hug to me in itself especially as I know you're struggling too, I wish I could come up with some pearls of wisdom for you hun but I'm all wisdomed out xx

*hugs Liddy* How long have you been going to your therapis? If it is just a few times then maybe giving her a chance would be worth it. If not, then maybe ask to see another therapist? I think one has to get along with a therapist and trust him/her in order to get something out of therapy. Especially when it comes to trauma and dissociation.
*hugs Oliver*
You survived the abuse.
You're gonna survive the recovery.
