flamingsword: “in my defense, I was left unsupervised” (therapy)
[personal profile] flamingsword
• Which three words or phrases best describe your emotional state?
Bemused, copacetic, under pressure

• What burdens are you carrying right now? Can you list all of them?
I want to get everyone their Yule / giftmas presents before the holidays are here. I want to buy, prepare, and arrange for good food for the tiny Yule lunch I’m having with some of the pagan friends. I want to clean up the apartment to that end as well. I need so many spoons, y’all.

• Have you eaten / hydrated / moved / connected with someone recently?
Yes, yes, no, and yes. I will move more in the morning.

• How does your body feel? Are you holding tension anywhere?
My shoulders and face are tight, but I’m slowly withdrawing from the SNRI because I keep missing psych appointments and it’s really not seeming to do much for either pain or anxiety. So I will just deal with the discontinuation side effects, and continue to decrease my doses.

• What needs do you have that are not being met yet?
I need to talk to my sister about some childhood stuff we have in common.
I need Mom to get my pronouns right this Christmas to show that she was listening and that she respects me. I ought to talk to her about how I was let down by her and why I’m so angry with her parents about the neglect and abuse.
I need Ghost to communicate stuff like his mother’s book preferences by thinking about it before he says he doesn’t know.
I need to go get the [community profile] oldqueersyellatcloud post ready for posting … basically now.

• Name 1 good thing that happened today, 2 people who brightened your week, and 3 things that you found funny this month.
Today I got done with the crochet bandolier, the 🏴‍☠️📚project (for now), and blocking the beanie. So I am ready to send out a bunch of gifts tomorrow! My week was brightened by [personal profile] genderjumper reaching out and helping distract me a bit when I was a grump, and by [personal profile] flameandsong for helping start the comm. Funny stuff: the Sauron-is-Santa meme a friend shared, a fun bit of modern “Christian” heresy, and Ghost telling me that the crypto bro who got on the cover of Forbes has been arrested for wire fraud.
