Good morning
Going to start a new job today...........


Open mind.
When you open your mind.
You don’t just let new things in,
In return, you let yourself out. .......

Checking in for today!

I had another session with my therapist this morning. I spend most of the time explaining to her why I think her impression of me being very fragile is wrong. It was exhausting but I think in the end we merged onto a better path. I'm just not sure I'm able to do what she expects me to practice now... She wants to reactivate my mirror neurons and my "homework" is to observe how other people's behaviour makes me feel. As an example she mentioned to see how I feel about the way the person in front of me in a queue behaves. I have no idea how to do this. How can their behaviour make me feel a certain way if they aren't even interacting with me? Unless they are acting in extreme ways that are annoying or dangerous.
At least now we're talking about an actual problem I have (often not knowing how things are meant, how I come across, what other's intentions are and not knowing what's appropriate if it's not obvious). But I am still a bit frustrated about it all...

My leg is still better today, which is great :) And I might book a little getaway for myself, just somewhere out of town. Not sure yet how I feel about it, I'm worried it'll make me feel lonely, going on my own so shortly after a break up. But maybe it'll be nice.

Feel better dearest Neoo, and have a wonderful first day erfra love. :hug: s

kev honey ~ if I may, this is what I think your therapist is going for: I think she just wants you to observe the person in front of you in a queue and see what you think.....do you think they are giving off a friendly vibe? Are you comfortable standing next to them? Do they seem nice? Are they polite to the cashier? .....just to watch how other people do things like grocery shopping and interacting with store staff....and see what your impressions are. :) :hug:

♥♥♥ Massive amounts of love for everyone. :grouphug:

I haven’t really been keeping up with everyone’s posts, I’m so sorry if I missed anyone, I hardly know what day it is let alone time of day, I’m not sure if I checked in today so I’m checking in for 24 hours please. Wine all round the remaining family table and I’m having cups of tea... I won’t drink today, I’m going to bed with my darling Mum’s teddy bear, night night, love to you all ❤️❤️❤️ :grouphug:
