iWantRope Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 @Nightjar I'd ask: "you're the therapist/counselor, do you have a cure for me?" If I went to a doctor for diarrhea & it doesn't stop or even worsen, I'd switch doctors 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried to start it but the battery was dead …..some kind of electrical drain issue plus the brutal I am inside I once had a mysterious electrical drain issue, which the dealer promised a solution too, eventually. I went to see my local mechanic and had him install a master cut off switch, next to the ignition. Way more cost effective. Just saying 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightjar Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 Eek. It's stormy and dark here today. I'm currently trying to muster the energy to get out for essential supplies. I got to therapy yesterday by some miracle and it was a pretty good session My mind wouldn't stop ticking over afterwards however which can be annoying. Still, it was nice to have somewhere to go more than anything and feel a little bit like a part of the world. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sober4life Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 I was finishing the landscaping out there and I pet an american red squirrel. I snuck up on her when she was coming down the tree. She didn't try to hurt me she just stayed frozen. I'm such a wimp though I was crying when it happened because it's such an amazing experience. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightjar Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 (edited) Just had a narc mom delivery. Of course, when I stayed at hers I was spared this public insult. Many of you know how I feel about this. Anyway, not much more I could do than post about it here and take it in It makes me feel icky.

duck Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 Well the sun is out and that makes me feel better. It’s brutally cold here. I have to go see my GP later today. Hopefully, he will have some good news for me. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightjar Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 (edited) OMG My neighbour actually just told me to shut up (and yes, he wasn't shouting but I heard him) because I plugged something into the wall to charge at 22:17. When I have to put up with the doors slamming at 5:30 am? This house drives me nuts. I am so angry now. Right before bed. Glad I have you guys to talk to. Heaven forbid I wanted to watch tv in my room till 12 like I used to. I used to watch films till 1am sometimes. When I had a house with actual walls.

Extremebeginner Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 What a pain in the neck. Easy to say dont worry about it, he clearly has some issues to deal with! However, I understand its not that easy to do. Human nature wants to get even with him somehow, but just ignore him, but save that energy and channel it on yourself. Use the energy to be positive, and zone him out, if you can. Ear plugs an option??? Light music throughout the night. You are not alone in things like this impinging on a nerve. Try to get a good nights rest. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My weekly therapy session has been my saving grace, especially these past few months when things have gone really downhill for me. I don’t get out much at all since I work from home and basically just go out on weekends…to eat or shop. Even if it is just for an hour or two…feels good to be among the living. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get some BIG, POWERFUL speakers, place 'em near his door, connect to a device playing the audio from porno videos, & crank that volume up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When someone is trying to help you in life feelings can develop and you might fall in love with them and tell them I love you. What did I do? I just didn't mention it again. There's nothing wrong with what happened. We're allowed to love anyone we want. It is awkward though. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightjar Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 P'd off with the neighbour and wall situation. I would go back to mom's but we've got a full week of rain and it's really noisy in the room I stay in. She says it's ok, you can stay in my bed but she wants me to get woken up by the rain first.... And she really doesn't want to leave her bed... Can't blame her there. Anyway, it's just... More things to mess with my sleep over there. Anyway, I'm still really pissed off about last night and I'm fed up of creeping around in my house because my freaking neighbours are in bed by 7 FFS. They are up at 4 am. I get woken up when they get up. I may have to get myself into rented as soon as I've sold this place. It may not be the wisest thing for my health to carry on like this. I was planning to stay at mom's till I bought another place but the disturbances will continue over there. I can't sleep after she gets up and there are people above who wake me up too. On top of my f'd up sleep pattern I've developed in this house its all too much. Hope everyone is doing ok 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sober4life Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 (edited) Yeah if I had to do it again I would rent somewhere first and when I found an area I liked maybe then buy a house in that area. It seems so risky to jump into buying a place without knowing the area at all. What if you buy and then don't like that place @Nightjar?

You and your therapist run away happily ever after, OR he (she) is a trained professional aware of how vulnerable you are when opening your heart and mind, and will not mention what happened. You did nothing wrong, I did the same to a close friend of mine, I didn't get to runaway and we’re still great friends. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sober4life Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 I'm a mess this time of year but do I really want to be more focused? Do I really want to be clear headed and really know what's going on or am I better off being in my own world this time of year? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
