Re: Good Morning!
Just had 45mins of meditation/listening to Alan Watts.
This morning on my walk I started thinking in his voice (whch is quite a unique one).
And using it to talk myself into a better state I guess (i was saying things like "the art of comparing oneself to others is based in the notion that they are indeed comparible to you") Or similiar
I think I have turned a bit of corner since I rang the help service today though.
Your example of getting triggered by a person - reminded me someone who i was hanging around with. I met on a dating app and she wasn't really interested in anything serious I think. She said she had been cheated on 3 times.
I am beginning to see how people act out their traumas in this life. Today I deleted all my dating accounts. I figured I will go back into that when I'm more of a complete person and am not sitting at home most of my time figuring things out.
Being in this "cave" mindset has healed me and I think I need to continue it. That said I did meet with one girl last week and we hit it off right away. Who knows what may come of it. It can't be forced.
It is what it is.
I have an interview this week lined up. I also have some study to do to boost my degree.
You see my friend on paper and in life I seem okay but as I'm sure you know - mental health is an internal battle and things aren't always obvious are they?
do take care and see you around as always gekota 🙂

Re: Good Morning!
Hello @Former-Member I am so happy for you with your new job! Congratulations! I hope it works for you. I did go with one equal opportunity employer years ago working in a supermarket as a taste tester and it was a good job. At least you don't have to worry now about hostile colleagues not understanding your disability. I can't begin to tell you how pleasing this news is. Let us know your progress. I hope you have a good weekend ❤️
