Speaking of BPD, I found a lecture on it that was actually pretty interesting and was very compassionate towards people with bpd and how difficult it is. Usually people just say we're monsters who are incredibly difficult to deal with. It was pretty good too on the aspects it covered, but it forgot to mention abandonment issues. I was considering posting it to help some people understand what goes on with me, but I didn't because no one would watch it.

I would watch it! For one, I work with someone who had BPD. For another, I find that a lot of the emotional coping skills used to manage BPD can, and arguably should, be used by the entire population.

Agreed. He does get into DBT a fair bit too.

Per usual, with the first real snowfall I'm noticing quite a few folks that either have or will be learning the hard way about driving under such conditions
(Those who survive that is)

I like being able to help folks and I'm glad to have had a bit of training in such things, but I really don't like witnessing or being the first on the scene of some of these incidents    Dead people ain't much fun

I'd say, gee I'm sorry to have put you into you such a distressful situation, I'll pick-up my dog and board him at the vet for now, thank you!

she didn't even ask about my pup. she just said she'd get a place eventually and to hang in there

There is this girl I am crushing hard on.  Man, this girl is beautiful, strong classy, graceful, and amazing.  She needs to be my wife, lol.  I smile every time I see her working.  I haven't smiled like that since my last relationship when I was engaged.  That is kind of scary.  I know this is an unrequited love, but I can at least dream, right?  I feel like a teenage boy with my feelings. I want to buy her a diamond ring.  It takes nearly everything I got to not let my mind wander to dirty thoughts with her.

I'm in love.  Okay not really, but I do have a deep infatuation for her.

My boyfriend isn't doing so well right now. I'm trying not to take the fact that he wants to have Saturday to himself personally because that would incredibly selfish and unreasonable of me. #abandonmentissues #bpdproblems

That's the first time I used hashtags. It's meant as a joke. I'm not sure it's funny. I don't get it.

I would watch it. Mainly just so I could try to understand.


OK, I watched it. Still a bit confusing and seems like a lot of work. The DBTseems Almost overwhelming all on its own.

It's a lot of work and it takes a long time, but it's very much worth it.

Too bad some folks are so self involved that they miss the entire point of the conversation and leave you having to deal with what is essentially their created problems.

Am I in that gender ambiguous stage of transition already? I've never heard a single "sir or "ma'am" lately.

Could be, they probably don't want to risk messing up and misgendering you.

Yeah, I think you might be right because I go to Subway once a week and the employees already know me.
I've heard ma'am from them every week until two weeks ago and now they stopped saying ma'am. Sir wasn't said either so I might be confusing them.

I have my dentist appointment tomorrow so we'll see how that pans out.

Probably! Let's have an update or pm tomorrow on the dental appointment and give me your impressions.

Looks like I'm working thanksgiving so I won't get to shop *sigh*.

I'm hoping to go on a church trip to FL next year so I'm going to let the boss know that I can't work then.  I'm also going to let him know that I won't be able to work for at least two weeks while I'm getting my top surgery done and recovering.  I like to think that I have been pretty loyal to find so I would feel pretty bold about requesting off.....or at least bolder.

Yes, its cold out today and going to be cold for a while now. I got everything ready for it, drained some outside water lines and changed the bad light fixture in the pump house.
