LOL!! My therapist says that I have the power of understatement. I don’t know what he means. I’m just fine. If only, I can keep the suicidal thoughts and self injury thoughts quite…I’m fine!!
I just spent some time reading your beautiful poetry and blog and think you are an absolutely wonderful, excellent writer! I love your poems! Thanks for finding me so I could find YOU too! :)
Hey Olga =) Thanks so much!! I was wondering who my mystery guest was – I noticed the rather unusual spike in my poetry library stats.
LOL! I’m the same way, CC. I don’t think I’ve had a therapy session where my T hasn’t said I’m minimising. I figure since I can’t seem to help myself, might as well get a few laughs out of it. Best medicine and all that.
good poetry
