Very very numb today. All I feel is really distant arm p*in, but don't
really feel it so much as know it's there. Don't know what it is. Don't
know if it's even real. H*te this stupid body. Cry in session a lot
about it. I truely do h*te this broken messed up body.

We could've seen a psych nurse for meds on friday, but her only
appointment was during the time we see t for thrpy, and we used that as
an excuse to put it off until she was available again in january. Didn't
seem like a smart idea to go see someone with pink sheet power with so
many c*ts on us. Especially since she'd no doubt ask to take our blood
pressure.

Worried about people here who aren't posting or aren't posting much.
Hope everyone is at least safe. Last time we talked to EB, she was at
different points, asking us to help her find a referal for an ra
specialist thrpst there or asking if we knew anybody who could get her
"back in". *sigh* Hope she is at least safe even if not in a place she
can connect with folks in asd.

We are tired. Been hard weeks. Bought wife pots and pans set. She seemed
a little disappointed at first, she wanted aluminum and we got her
non-stick, but then we pointed out it *was aluminum with a coating and
she wouldn't like cleaning something non-stick.

She went to a party last night, came back with a wallet for us. Our old
one was falling apart. The new wallet has "STAY GOLD" scrawled on the
back, referencing The Outsiders. Thought it was a thoughtful gift. Ok,
we are crying. Need to end the post.

We want a new one. T makes us cry. She tells everyone inside it's
impossible. We are stuck with it. We don't want it. Not fair. It isn't
even ours!

and we have a feeling from the psych nurse's voice and name, we knew her
before. Think she used to work for the hsptl. Charge nurse night shift
on weekends for East ITU. We will know when we see her in january if
she's the same person.

Yeah, it was. She can be thoughtful sometimes. We knew she was getting
it before she got home. The store she bought it from called for an
authorization to charge our account for it. We didn't tell her that
though. We acted real surprised.

Her next appointments aren't until january, so it will be a couple
weeks. Will give us time to call insurance and authorize us to see her
because she's out of network and for t to talk to her beforehand like
she said she would.

Yes, isn't teflon either. Is a newer kind that can be put in the
dishwasher and use metal spatulas on. She seems happier about them now,
and we got to throw out all our old scratched up ones too.

but we still saved the pot from our second apartment that an arc of
el*ctricity went through. (That was scary.) It has a big hole in it.

We have all that author's books. Got the paperback series for ten cents
a piece at a yardsale. We also have a hardback copy of Outsiders we
never returned to the junior high.

If we've got to have all these broken things in our mind, how come we
can't just have a healthy body? Would be so much easier we think. Our t
notices the spasms and jumps the body does. Is part of how she knows
when to change the subject. If there's gotta be so many people inside,
can't we just have a healthy body to stay in?

Think it's good. She was never very mad at us. Only once when we
scr*tched s*res in the right arm on her watch, but think she was more
frustrated than mad. She gave us hot packs wrapped in towels to try to
rest with too.

Try to but it feels worse that way. If we sleep, we get really sick and
dizzy. It feels so yucky to have food inside our stomache. Bleh. How
come things good for the body make us feel worse like that?

T tries to tell us about how these things work, but after a very short
time, start feeling really s*ck or h*rt. Friday, she was talking about
gr**ming, and after a couple sentences, it felt like he had been h*t in
the face. :( H*rt a lot, so she stopped. Said we can talk about it more
next week.
