Good morning!
Well I started up my therapy with a new therapist, Gina. Anywho, she is about my age (maybe a bit older) and I felt a real connection with her. She seems real genuine. Her office is maybe 5 minutes from the house. WOOHOOO!
Anywho, the session..... I unloaded a truckload of frustrations onto her. I discussed my depression and how I am really scared of my lows at times. I dont get the highs/lows a lot but when I do, it is usually one extreme to the other. I also talked about my adaption with dh and how I am NOW having a difficulty in it after 8/9 months after the wedding. She wants dh to come in so she can get his take on it but that may/may not happen later. I honestly think he wont do it since he thinks of it as a sign of weakness. Whatever! Some men do not get therapy. Talking to someone is not a weakness.
She gave me an assignment until the next time I see her (after the holidays).. to try to communicate with dh when I feel frustrated with him. It is hard but I am going to try. I think we may have our talk session tonight to help me pull out of my "safety zone".

Good for you, Darla. I know it sounds kinda *trite* but making lemons out of lemonade is still DOING something! It's that *stuck in a rut* same old, same old that keeps us in our CZ & NOT progressing. I would rather try & fail, than not trying & living w/regrets.
Hope the session goes well. As for those almighty fence posts, before you get rooked into another all 'nighter, I would get the

You gals are the best!!!!!
HI Rosaura!
Things are getting better a little each day.
Well, I found out that if I made small random acts of kindness, it does go down to a trickle effect.
Awww, Darla thank YOU for that wonderful, uplifting post!! (Is there a "crying because I'm touched" icon? *wink)
I'm so glad that the kindness you showed was returned by dh--and can't wait to hear (IF you wanna share that is--lol!) what plans he has up his sleeve for your anniversary! Hugs, Lori
I will share as much as I can w/o the nakedness! hahahaha
I am looking forward to that weekend now... I did a virtual search in my closet and found a 2-pc skirt/halter top I can wear.
Love and hugs

Thanks Rosy-girl!
Believe me, I do count my blessing but working with a man is not easy.
Kisses
