Emotionally I feel like a laundry basket that is filled with puppies that I am trying to catch and corral back inside the containment! Things are coming up faster than I can shove them down or away.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know I am suppose to be dealing with them. But, ya know what? I don't want to!
There has to be a way to salvage this day and change my mood.
I did write an email and come completely clean to a person that I needed to come clean to. I didn't exactly lie, but I sure didn't exactly tell the truth either. It did not sit well with my conscience. I felt the need to right what I was feeling was so wrong. The fact that I have a conscience is good. I sure don't need a tattletale in my life. I do a good enough job of it all on my own. I can't stand it when I know I haven't been honest. I can't get away with anything, because I tell on myself!
I have been thinking about the things my therapist wants me to do. Every ounce of me says NO! Usually, I am not afraid of hard work. What she is asking of me is going to be very hard. The fact that she also wants me to share it seems even harder. I have never tackled the violence of my father in any real significant way. I admit he was violent. That's about it though. To speak the details? There is a part of me that knows it is going to cause a shift in my feelings toward him. She believes I am strong enough and that I have a strong safety net. Me? I am not feeling as confident.
