Well let's see....
Things are moving. Work is doing well, a little stressful. Kids start pre-school on the 27th. I have some fantasy football drafts coming up to be excited about
and going to
opening MNF for the RRRRAAAIIIDDDERRRS.
I usually get a bit anxious at the games but as soon as the game kicks off it is usually all goes away.
Haven't had a panic attack in probably a good 3-4 months but the anxiety attacks hit me at night. Have had some trouble sleeping before 11 or 12 like I should be.
Drinking, Smoking and or other drugs usually add to my anxiety. Although I will have an occasional drink with friends or family in the right atmosphere.
Money is tight as is expected with 3 kids and my wife not currently working taking care of our 3 month old.
So after typing all that I guess I have nothing really to complain about
...
Expendables 2 was much better than the first if anybody cares. lol.

Today I so badly want to just stay in my place.. maybe just hide in my bedroom. I feel like I am on edge for something bad to happen. My Mom called this morning and asked me to come over to help her with a few things. Even though she said she wants me to come over to help me get out of the house and maybe take my mind off of being stressed, my mind keeps saying she just wants to use me as free labor. I hate how I am so quick to assume people's intentions are "bad" and I am being used.

Woooooo Whooooo!!! That is awesome P.C.!! I am so proud of you!
What do you think has helped you through this week? Have you tried a new coping mechanism, or was it a matter of timing/just ready to stop?
I am sure that others would be interested in knowing what has helped you turn this behavior around, if you would like to share.:)
I wish you continued success...everyday that you add, you are gaining strength and resolove! Keep up the hard work.:)

Hi P.C.,
Forgive me, I don't know much about
this issue...is this a good sign, in other words that you are making progress? I hope that this is what you mean.:)
I know that you have been working so hard, and I am very impressed! Keep up with the things that you are doing to feel better and beat this!
Take care,
S.C.

Now I aboustully HHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTTTTTEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE telling people, I also HHHHHHHAAAAAATTTTTTEEEEEEEEEE people looking at my whole body because I have all these scars all over my body, I mean ALL OVER MY BODY, I HHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTTEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE that I've do it too you know, I've tried everything, I mean EEEEEEEVVVVVVVEEEEEEERRRRRRRRTTTTTTTTHHHHHHHIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGG, nothing worked at all so now I am on a lil. stronger dose of my picking pill, that seems to be helping ALOT, before I even went on this new dose I decided that I just had enough of it again, to try again you know which I did, ever since the 12th I've been free for 20 days now.

That is fantastic! 20 days is a huge accomplishment! Try to focus on celebrating that and not on the scars. Whether you want to tell people or not is your choice...if anyone asks, simply reply with a question of your own: 'Why would you ask me such a personal question?'
It may seem rude at first...but you know what? So is someone asking you about
your physical appearance! I mean can you imagine asking somebody where they got their big nose, or their crooked teeth? It is just not okay right? So they are in the wrong to begin with.
Who you choose to tell is totally your business...try to focus on your major breakthrough here...you are doing great, you are strong and beautiful, and don't foget that, or let anyone else's stares or comments tell you otherwise!:)
