>Hi, Daisy, sweetie (I am new here.)
But I don't really know of what. I've wanted to call my therapist since about 7:30 tonight. I've held out -- because I don't even know what I want/need him for.
That doesn't matter; I say follow your gut instinct; you had a need, and although you didn't know what it was; you needed a friendly voice.
I've managed to put away the little pieces of me for most of the weekend, I think because my son was home visiting from college. But he left this afternoon and I've been slowly drifting into a gloom since then.
That must have been a lonely feeling.
I'm on a new medication that is making me feel sick, I'm facing another tough week at work and I have no idea how to restart the conversations in therapy.
can you write things down, so when you go back to therapy, you'll be able to restart the conversation?
I feel so far away from myself tonight...disconnected and a drift somehow. And sex has triggered all the different parts of me in so many different ways. I should have said no, but I still don't know how.
Try (I know it is difficult) to be gentle with yourself

> I don't even know what I'm asking or why I'm posting. I just feel scared of how I feel tonight and wanted to anchor that fear somewhere. I guess I feel small and alone. It is just awfully dark out there.I'd like to be one of the little lights for you to hang on to. E-mail me: wacalice@aol.com
(P.S. About me: I am alone for the 1st time in 31 years, after a divorce 5 months ago, so I understand lonely, sweetie);
Hugs and Love and a little tiny light...Ally
