Give me an example of something you did well OR ask for some help [...]

Last night and today have been very hard.  By 9pm last night I was mad as hell.  The boy I had had a great conversation with the night before had not contacted me since I sent him pictures of me.  The conversation in my head is full steam ahead about him not liking me because [...]

Happy Friday.  Hopefully the weekend will be better than my Friday was.  Today has been a day sitting with grief.   My grandma passed early this am. I haven’t cried. I know that it’s better for her as her quality of life had been compromised for some time. I forgot how grief can manifest itself in [...]
