There are times when I can’t, and it’s terribly frustrating. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. Enter your comment here. Address never made public). On Out of Center.

I’m an alpha goose! 8221; The point, if there is a point, is that hissing balls of feathers may quite possibly charge out of the bushes at any time. I would rather take charge of the encounter rather than lose my head and run away. I refuse to accept the goose’s version of reality. November 8, 2014. November 8, 2014.

The Religion of Self-Worth. October 19, 2015. October 19, 2015. October 8, 2015. October 9, 2015. Killing thoughts swirl in my brain. Round and round…. You’re stupid and useless. You’re a horrible person. It’s irrational. I know it’s irrational, but I can’t make it stop. Right Get out the checklist. One thing at a time. Get dressed. Oh, that’s a hard one. Try again. Check. Brush teeth. Check. Phone, keys, wallet, dog, leash…. Right Go walk the dog. Wrong shoes? Step, step, step. Oh, hello, someone! Sudde...

February 27, 2015. February 27, 2015. Most days, sometimes many times during the day, I will say out loud apropos of nothing in particular, “I want to go home.” I say it even when I’m at home. What does it mean? It seems odd that I want to go to bed when that is where all the drama starts in my head that more often than not ends up being painful. (See this post.). Posted in mental health.

October 31, 2014. October 31, 2014. I’ve spent a lot of time in different kinds of formal therapy over the years, although not continuously. From each of them I’ve collected insights and tools to use, all found objects collected into my tool box to be used as needed. Sometimes I use them in ways that probably weren’t intended. That’s part of the skill of using found objects and improvisation. Improvisation commencing… Doing what I can, with what I’ve got, where I am. The Freedom of the Suicidal. I went o...

December 5, 2014. December 5, 2014. At my last meeting with my fall students they gave me some overwhelming love and appreciation to bring home with me. My peace of mind is restored. Kind – “friendly, deliberately doing good to others,” from Old English gecynde “natural, native, innate,” originally “with the feeling of relatives for each other,” from Proto-Germanic *kundi- “natural, native,” from *kunjam “family”.

November 8, 2014. November 8, 2014. It requires discipline, and discipline is what my interior world is all about. Discipline keeps me from screaming and lashing out. It also helps me direct and control the energy. “Sit down. Be still. Focus,” says the disciplinarian. “Channel the energy into the keyboard.” Getting started is the hardest part. Once I am focused, it’s like an anchor keeping me from flying apart. Finding the balance point. 2 thoughts on “ Releasing the Maniac. November 8, 2014 at 10:39 pm.

November 4, 2014. November 4, 2014. I studied history and learned about subjective reporting and interpretation. History is one thing for a king, another thing entirely for a serving girl. The same events from different points of view are completely different stories. The soldiers on the field live in a different world than the politicians in the counsel room. I said I supposed I had normal memories of it, as if such a thing were possible. 2 thoughts on “ Reality. November 5, 2014 at 1:41 am. You are com...
