my denture went in and felt snug this morning with no problems. i'm very happy about that.

still anxious about our group lunch out today. just hoping i don't have any denture problems.

i have a boil (i know, gross!) on my inside leg. i put some ointment on it and covered it and that sometimes takes care of the problem.

with my new phone i can text as much as i want, so that's useful for keeping in touch with friends and family, throughout the day, whenever i discover some problem that is bothering me.

have been thinking about death lately, just in a general sense, wondering when i will die and what of. hope it's ok to say that here.

tonight is therapy and we will talk about whether i should stay on with my current dentist.

that's all for now. thanks for listening,
love, rich

D.,

Glad that you are seeing positives in your day! :)

Congrats on your new phone! I hope that you get a lot of benefit from staying connected with it.

...and glad to hear that you are having a good day teeth-wise...I am sure that it will continue, and that lunch will go well.

Hoping you have a good session tonight with your therapist, and you can discuss all of your current concerns.

I also hope that the boil goes away quickly...keep looking after it, and I am sure it will.

Here is a link for a book if the thoughts/preoccupation with death continue to bother you. You many want to ask your therapist if he/she thinks it would be a good read for you. It deals primarily with health anxiety, but has a chapter specifically of the fear of death/dying.

Let us know how you are doing soon,
