    I know!
    And I am so scared that I will feel unable to talk to him and he will think that I am just wasting his time!

    The only experience I have of a counsellor is watching The Sopranos!!!

    Mine isn't until 7pm! So I have a lot of time to panic about it.
    Haven't been up long and already chewed my mouth until it is sore! :(

    Bought loads of veg last night so I am trying to motivate myself to cook it all into meals I can freeze. Hopefully this will keep my mind off things and also it means that I will have meals prepared for when I feel too low to cook.

    :hello: Everyone,

    Hope you are all ok,I just did my ironing this morning as I didnt feel well with my knee being so sore,My parents came to see me and I told them I didnt feel 100% so mum said go and have a lie down,so I did,I cried myself to sleep,I felt better an hour later,made my dinner after I ironed my clothes and bedding,then I went out to my club for a bit,had a walk along the seafront,went to woolworths for a look around,saw nothing I wanted so I left the store and went home :)


    thanks for the jokes ILGD :) they cheered me up no end :)


    *hugs* to those that need one

    The counselling appointment went okay actually. it was nice to talk to someone although she was a very happy jolly person, which was off putting to begin with. I told her about my self harming so hopefully we'll work towards me finding something more constructive instead of doing that.
    In other news, I'm having the worse day ever. I think I might have to start my dissertation again. Which means a lot more work and stress and time which I don't have. I'm meant to be going home on Friday for the christmas holidays, but if I do indeed need to start over, it means I am not going home for at least another week. I want to go home :( but I'll be stuck at uni whilst everyone else is going home. ARGH. I just feel like rubbish :(

    I had a good day thanks SF :) rested all morning with my knee and had a sleep for an hour then I got up and made lunch whilst doing my ironing :) then I ate lunch,finished the little bit of ironing I had left,had a drink,then I went out to my club for an hour and a half and I was ok :) I rested my knee there too :) then I went for a walk,then looked at woolworths but nothing tempted me to buy so I went home :)

    tonight I have just wrote more christmas cards to friends and posted them,then had my tea and watched Holby City at 8pm and it was interesting tonight,its on next Wednesday so that will be nice :)

    Hope your councelling session went ok tonight for you Dawnylou :)

    Have a nice evening everyone
