The Good : Received an email back from someone at the JASC about taiko workshops (Tues nights, therefore can't make it b/c I have class), but also that they'd pass my information on to the dance class...Puffs with lotion. Best Tissues Ever. I won't buy anything else. I can't even get through a few sentences on handling grief without crying. T.T At least I can read it here at home and not in class
...permeate all aspects of daily life. Here's how family and friends can help (these are all so important and effective): Admit there is a problem Become informed Listen Accept different ways of coping Make the invitation Respond to the need for dignity and respect The information in this document is very well presented, and I hope that more people become aware of the seriousness and the raw...
Sometimes its hard to keep things in an eternal perspective. I hate all this waiting around. I want to go on my mission already so I can start actually focusing on college. I having my attention split...She'd probably like it. Idk. I'd normally ask Jeff or probably Leah as of more late, but I think they're both preocupied with other things these days. That's all I've got to report. Peace out
Just Those Few Weeks For just those few weeks I had you to myself. And that seems too short a time to be changed so profoundly. In those few weeks, I came to know you... and to love...just those few weeks, my little one. You darted in and out of my life too quickly. But it seems that's all the time you needed to make my life richer and to give me a small glimpse of eternity.
I'm holding it together. I've gotten very good at forcing my mind to shift topics that send me spiraling in circles. But I notice that I'm making carby and sugary foods more of a staple than I have for...Towers were smoking, burning and crumbling, and there I was trapped in a car heading right for them. I woke up that morning before dawn, and there was no sleep for me during the rest of that night
...to find a place to store a few boxes of ritual supplies and other necessities for city life. Does anyone have a storage shed or spare spot of space in their home that we could hide them in? It would be a real favor, and we prefer to match favor for favor given the chance. Coping with my anger and depression, dancing into the light, finding the bliss again. Soon, this will all be behind us.
It's not getting any easier, but I'm hanging on. I'm finding ways to safely deal with self-destructive behavior, and I'm doing my best to be more open with others. I honestly feel like it's been easier...mom considerable amounts of worry if she were to see my place like this. I should probably study now for my goddamn midterms. Hopefully most of it sticks. At least I know I'll get a good night's sleep
...and this newly formed anorexic mindset is that...well, I am willingly choosing something that is bad for me despite what doctors, friends, and family could say to sway me otherwise. Everyone has their coping mechanisms. Some people draw, go for walks, or even smoke. Some of these things are obviously healthy as well as unhealthy. People need an outlet when life gets crazy; it's just what we do. IF a...
You know what? I don't care anymore. I just don't care. I've had it with everything. I've had it with this place, I've had it with a certain person in this place and I've had it with trying to cope. I...lost the one person that made this place even slightly bearable, so there's just no point in even pretending to make an effort anymore. I really don't feel like i can hold on to sanity much longer..
...car. A train held us up whilst I almost choked on my tongue! Anyway, we got to the hospital and I was quickly seen to by a very lovely doctor, she made it fun. She knew joking and laughing was my coping strategy and she encouraged it. She gave me an antihistomine at first to see if it calmed it down. Bearing in mind I was in excrutiating pain. I waited for a while to see if it worked. I started...
