I have just returned from another fruitless visit to my therapist. I've waited 9 months for these appointments...... NINE FREAKIN' MONTHS!!! NINE!!! And surprise, surprise, I return feeling even MORE of a failure, MORE worthless and totally screwed up. I returned wanting to cut holes in every aspect of my being and shrink into nothingnes........... And then - I log on here and I have wonderful comments from lovely, lovely people and while I'm reading them and replying, the monsters in my mind start to slink back into the shadows, allowing my mind to function and the light to start shining through again.
I LOVE YOU GUYS!!
Which prompts this, to each and every AWESOME one of you -
* You are GORGEOUS! Shush now with your arguements, look at you- you're bloody gorgeous! WOW! The world is more fabulous with your fine ass in it!
* You are talented - your skills and colours light the sky with whole new levels of awesome.
* You're funny - laugh like you see the joke even when no one else joins in. You're a perfect spirit in a world of judgemental cynicism. Your smile shines like the sun!
* You're unique - and that's PERFECT! There's enough of everyone else - the world needs a YOU! you add the sprinkles to the cupcake of life.
Sod everyone else who doesn't get you, doesn't laugh at your jokes, doesn't see your bright colours - they're missing out on something magical, but we all know here how EPIC you are - you're a LEGEND in your own time and time to come and THANK YOU for being YOU!
You are light, you are brightness, you are wonder and heart. Be the person that you are and let the world thank you for just showing up and making everything ok. You ALL have my gratitude and my love. Oh - and The Colonel thanks you too 'cos he's had extra nippits (biscuits) for tea!
I am now gonna sit with a glass of red wine, some cinder toffee and a series of '24' and just breathe.
See you soon, lovely - Shroo:)xxx
Well said! Cheers, my friend! Hugs, Valerie

DeleteSounds like your therapist (9 month wait????) needs re-schooling! Hoping you enjoyed your wine!!
ReplyDeleteMy therapist could learn some lessons from the wonderful people who visit me here - your epically fabulous self included! And yep - NINE MONTHS! I was on their worry 'urgent' list BEFORE mum died....after she passed away they reduced my level of urgency to 'low'. I didn't know that bereavement fixed EVERYTHING! .....*sheesh*.....idiots.
DeleteWell.....stuff 'em.... I'd far rather spend more time here - does me WAY more good! And ooooooooo I did enjoy the wine....I got through a whole three episodes of '24' season 7 then nodded off with The Colonel snoring on my knees! Thank you for being fabulous every day - sending hugs and starshine from Shroo :)xxxx
Love you! you are awesome Shroo

AAWWWW!!! THANK YOU!!! that's cheered me immensely! You star! hugs from Shroo:)xxxx
DeleteIf you can be so creative and productive, be such an inspiration to others and post such totally fabulous blogs..... honey are you sure you need a therapist? , cos if you do it doesn't look good for the rest us us :-) have a happy, happy day today and every day
ReplyDeleteHa! It's swiftly feeling to me like therapists are all really rather crap - I'd avoid this one, but sadly she's compulsary. Ugh! If it wasn't for the chronic agoraphobia, clinical paranoia, hallucinations, random psychosis, panic attacks and tendency to horrifically self harm I'd be AWESOME!!! I've always found that the best therapy is anything that I can constructively supply for myself - art being a MASSIVE part of that. It helps me through every day and I figure that if I can share the positive aspects of that then I'm doing some good - no point in blogging the rest of the tripe! :-D Let's hope that my therapist suddenly emigrates so I don't have to see her again! *grins* . You're awesome - keep up with that 'cos the world needs more YOU! Hugs from Shroo:)xxxx
DeleteHmmmm don't bother with the self harm, no need to, the world in general harms us so much there really is no need to help it out. As for all the other bits, welcome to the human race, every one has those things, its actually quite 'normal', it's just the severity and frequency that gets a bit out of hand sometimes. But anyway................your creativity is wondeful and I'm sure it helps you, it's by far the best therapy out there. :-)
