My special place

My special place

Well yesterday certainly threw everything off track. But thanks to some very thoughtful and kind people I was able to get threw it and continue.

I cannot say a lot about what happened as I am sure you all understand but need this support in place.

Things WILL be ok, just a lot to work out.

Psych visit yesterday sorted out some of the things and more things will be happening early next week.

I am sorry if I put anyone through any despair, but unfortunately what happened yesterday morning had to be done.

Thank you all for your continued support.

Re: My special place

Do you ever feel lonely @Zoe7? Do you any friends at all like other teachers, old friends?

Re: My special place

I don't often feel lonely @Sans911 I have one friend who lives in another state but apart from her there is no-one that I have in my life. There is no-one that I could pick up the phone and talk to or go to dinner with or even just sit with for a chat - I don't reallly like talking anyway so that is not an issue. I have begun to make some connections in DBT and I enjoy their company but again I basically listen to them and say very little myself. There was a time that I had a few friends but with 'circumstances' we grew apart. I tend not to want to get close to anyone as that has caused me grief in the past also - too much betrayal or hurt - or people simply leaving. I would say that being alone does have it's drawbacks but it doesn't always equate to being lonely.

Re: My special place

Yes @Zoe7

The two are distinctly different. I can understand the reasons why you've chosen the way you are. I know you say you've chosen to be this way, but I feel quite sad that you've been so hurt by others.

Re: My special place

The more hurt I have been the more isolated I became as well @Sans911 - and the more reluctant to get close to anyone for fear of being hurt again. The way to stop that cycle was to not put myself in a position where it could happen again - to not be taken advantage of, let-down or hurt in any way - seems to be how my entire life was until I made the decision that being on my own was safest.
