Re: Not good
Gym sounds good @MDT
I am just back from dentist.
Did you see the link I posted on Good Morning thread?
Brian Little talks about personality traits in a humourous and interesting way.
The words we think about ourselves ... background noise sometimes ... I have been doing exercises out and about ... did them at the farm this morn ing while waiting and at the doc yesterday. Somehow keeps me feeling energetic and more cheerful ...
yeah ... of course sometimes they hurt ... sometimes they exhaust me ... same with the invincible stuff and feeling vulnerable ... sometimes the psychic armour shifts ... sometimes its too heavy ... and we need to lighten off .. otherwise it gets grandiose ... but it all comes down to energy ... emotion ... is energy in motion ... the sensitive sides can be the beautiful sides.
The work scene is pretty competitive atm ... with all the talking I hear from others ... with my kids .... I have a high flyer on an election win high ... and one on DSP ... its not a level playing field ... claim your own pleasure and fun a bit too ...

Re: Not good
You poor thing you are not well @MDT I hope my words came across in the way they were intended. Sending you my love and hoping things get better. You just need someone to talk to thats all - a listening ear of a family or friend. I know its hard to find that real life connection here but we all love you on SANE 💜

Thanks @TAB @Appleblossom @Former-Member
Went to gym. Helped.
Had cancelled plan to see a friend for a meal. But rescheduled it in. Just said "oh I finished up earlier"
So that's a good development.
Tonight I wanna go to bed early and do my walk in the morning. See sunrise and get coffee and do application

Re: Not good
Although my lifeline chat was not the greatest it did help me think about priorities
But also to what you said Apple.. the emotional side can be the beautiful side. Tap into it I must.
Yeah I feel a bit more optimistic about Australia since the weekend. No more political expediency I hope.
Anyway forumitws I do appreciate your help.
Its a rough time atm. But I'm getting there ever so slightly.
Need to enter the meditative state of mind more

Re: Not good
@MDT
So what was it about the second interview that caused the crisis? Did you feel like you did something in particular wrong?
Do you have an expectation for yourself that you need to break down into more manageable parts so you don't feel overwhelmed?
