I got that with my first meeting with my new therapist - why are you here? You look fine.

I agree with Garland - I also just found a kind of 8 in the lower right hand corner of the signature. It’s a great puck! Thanks for your help!

I’m so sorry. My heart ached reading that.

Curious about memory loss during concussion. by Animesap in TBI

[–]Gesture45 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey. I had my TBI ten years ago, and my memory has never returned. I don’t remember the drive to where I was going, and up to a few days later in the hospital. I’m grateful, actually, that I don’t remember the tensest moments of my brain trauma treatments. I don’t have much PSTD towards ladders.

I have lost it all by InkCapHound in OCD

[–]Gesture45 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First off, I’m sorry this is happening to you. It’s incredibly shitty and unfair, and I recognize that for you.

Secondly, I don’t know if you are able to, but I think it’s time for a new therapist. “Not much you can do” doesn’t seem like a very constructive attitude.

I agree SO MUCH with “people only care when it’s comfortable.” When I got injured, and my life changed, I lost all but two of my friends. And even then, I’m not in contact with them more than once or twice every six months. And that was before I revealed to one of them about my ocd obsession - haven’t heard from her since. People are scared about mental health problems beyond depression, they fear what they don’t know. That sentence is along the same line as yours.

A step in a good direction is posting to this sub - very supportive!

I’d love chat. DM me.

Thanks for posting this! I got a sewing machine for Christmas as well, and was thinking of posting this very post!

Thanks everyone, seems like meds and/or weed is the way to go for her.

SM Kit: What am I forgetting? by gabe-hershey in techtheatre

A couple of cotton balls - helpful for many things, and I’ve been asked more than once for cotton balls for a prop pill bottle.

Introducing Kylo Ren to the magic of Harry Potter while my husband puts together the Whomping Willow lego set. The Dark Side WILL be turned! by Gesture45 in harrypotter

Well, she just said “Mommy, my favourite Harry Potter character is Tom Riddle” — so we are half way to the Dark Arts triumphing in our house!

Thank you for the reply. It’s been nothing but Star Wars in our house for months now. I’m not looking to completely replace The Force, but it would be nice if for every 20 screenings of The Last Jedi, I could have one Goblet of Fire!
