Achiements for me seem to be far and few between. Today I have managed a few small achiements. I should feel happy about that right?
Achievment 1: I managed to get up the courage and call the psychcologist to confirm the appointment that she sent out to me. This was made a whole lot less stressfull when I called and the receptionist said that she (psychcologist) is away on sick leave and wont be back until wednesday. I left a message with her. I also gove her my current phone number as they have been trying to contact me via another number that is now disconnected. I knew they had the disconnected one, but I hadn't got up the courage to give them the correct one. This is mostly due to the fact that getting a call from them at any time is really scary. *I should mention here that both my psychaitrist and new psychcologist are a part of the one mental health team, so the team had the old number.. Just to avoid confusion there*. I'm still not sure how I feel about the whole thing. Just having to see someone and TALK is HUGE and I just don't know if i've got it in me yet. You'd think after all these years i'd get used to talking.. but it doesn't get easier.. Infact I think it gets harder having to talk to different people.
Achievment 2: I left the house. Seems small and petty, but for me this is a big achievment. I hardly leave the house anymore so getting out at all is a big thing. Even bigger is I actually managed the shopping centre *mall*. Even if I did only go to the optometrist to order some more contact lenses. Small miracles eh. I also went to a smaller shopping centre and got some DVD's out to watch. I got some stupid horror movie.. love them… but this one wasn't good. Also part 1 of Season 5 of The Hills. I know it's lame, but i'm addicted :)… And thirdly was Mao's Last Dancer. I'm still unsure about this one. I think it could have been alot better anyway.
I had a horrible dream last night that my best friend died. I was so upset. I told her boyfriend that I was going to look after her baby from now on. It was really horrible. There was alot of lightening in my dream too.. Not sure what thats supposed to mean..
You did great, do not belittle your accomplishments. Other do not have your issues, so itis not a level playing field. The nightmares aren't surprising. You had a very streesful day.
