Well, I figured I should type out my week ahead and give an update since the last time I've written. First, I am now on my 3rd new mood stabilizer. The Topamax was no good, and then she had me on something else which I already forgot the name of, and now I am on… Continue reading Update and Week Ahead 09/06/22

Bad Dream
I haven't written in a while but I woke up from such a bad dream I thought I should share it. So I've been waiting over a month to go back to my therapist to sort out some shit I've been going through. In my dream it was the day of the appointment and when… Continue reading Bad Dream
Representation
Over the last week, I have been overwhelmed with joy in all the LGBTQIA+ representation on television. Television is one of my favorite artistic mediums to indulge in. The new season of Locke & Key came out on Netflix this week. In this season, in a major series, they have a whole episode dedicated to… Continue reading Representation

Transference and Jealousy
I've been trying to process my feelings and learn from them. Not to judge me but to see what these things are telling me and how I might grow from them. I've been seeing the same therapist now for almost 7 years. During that time I have seen how that relationship and my feelings about… Continue reading Transference and Jealousy
Sharing
Making mistakes is so hard to digest. So little compassion I provide to myself. A recent misstep at work haunts me. Tossing about spreadsheets in my sleep and waking to it fresh and relived on my mind. Work has been extremely stressful this last month. Due to personal issues, I've been unable to swim for… Continue reading Sharing
