Over the last few months I think a lot of this repressed stuff has been vented enough for me to realize how bored I am now. I have a sense of home in this house, and in my head out there. Someone mentioned a multifaceted personality to me, about me. That made me think. I guess it is true. I am more than a nurse, and long term patient of his shrinkness. I feel more visible now that I can see, and accept what, and who I am.

A part from an addictive personality, I do have a fair idea of what and who I like. I am a sucker for poker machines, and ciggies. I know keeping away from poker machines is a must. Ciggies are here to stay ATM. And my recent addiction was booze. For the last couple of weeks I was putting a wee drop of whiskie in my coffee once every 2-1 days. Yesterday I began to put some in my coke. I'm a cheap as drunk, so I got the 'hit' within ten minutes. Warning bells went off then, and now I have added booze to my addiction list. No more! Scary stuff!

On a brighter note, the self has become more known to me while hiding under this rock for the last few months. In that time I have been forced to look at me; my likes in music, and art. I like a laugh, and tend to react to a dry sense of humour. I am attracted to unassuming folk with the same interests as mine. I like intelligent, insightful people; 'artists,' I think we are called.

Come to think of it, my likes haven't ever really changed since I was a kid, rather they have been fed and watered in therapy as a part of the undoing of my families effect on me.

I am now moving on. I am getting divorced; without therapy I wouldn't have been able to find the strength to do this. I am now starting to discover the me who has been hidden for many years. She never changed. Just got buried in so many layers of pain and confusion that I lost her for a bit. Now she wants to spread her wings


Rewritten in the male gender and replace 'divorced' with 'separated' and I could have written that (((Cat))) Note I couldn't bring myself to include the last bit of your paragraph; not just yet. Still too soon to think in those terms.

(((Muff))) (((Draggers))) the pair of you are addictively funny Big Grin You're always brightening up my day even if I haven't got a clue what you're on about half the time
Yeah, I think I know that terror. It's a fear of saying or doing something that might peeve T. We have them in such high regard like a parent we always wanted to trust. Now the only way to go is down from here. It wont happen though GE. It just feels that it will.

He wont pull the rug out from under you like others have.
muff that's EXACTLY it, I know he won't pull the rug from under me. and I mean I REALLY know. He might piss me off, make me angry or upset but he won't betray my trust. My thoughts and feelings will always have a place and be ok.

I know my T is partial to carrot cake. Wonder if I should leave some on his doorstep one day

Muffins for everyone!
Oh, but the faith will be tested GE.

Knowing and feeling are two different things. Bubby GE hasn't 'got it' yet.

It is a bit of a high when we feel safe isn't it GE?

I shall take the opportunity to grab a wee muffin while yer there.

You can butter up T anyways you want. It wont be necessary though. Will it? That's the thing GE, NO OBLIGATION required.
