pinkplasticdoll yeah, the Braves game is the only exciting part of my weekend...I was really refer to the rest of the lazing boring shit I'll be doing for the next two days.
mags I've written off the guy. Haven't heard from him since last weekend. He said he wanted to see me again but then never planned anything. I know he's on vacation with his kids this week but that doesn't mean he can't drop a random text here or there.
Everyone who wants to come to the pool is welcome. Get your ass down here doglove !
Thank you. Yeah, I need to speak to a doctor. Unfortunately, my therapist situation is a mess but I might be able to see her if I try. I'm on citalapram. I'm going to ask my family doctor and see what he says and suggests for me. I wonder if Wellbutrin is a lesser evil bc I have a bottle of that and I was supposed to take it with my other one but I didn't want to add more drugs when I'm trying to come off them!
I was on citalopram for 3 or 4 months, and have been on Wellbutrin for a long time. Consult your doctor, but wean off the citalopram sloooowwwwly. I stopped because I was feeling zombie-ish and hated the sexual side effects. Now I'm just on the Wellbutrin. I like it - no side effects that I can tell.

Well, he doest deserve you then!!
Oh don't worry, I'm not all butt hurt over it. I'd actually pretty much forgotten about him. Had to think about who you meant when you asked
SwimDeep make the decision that's right for you tonight. I don't like the way YH decides he knows what's best for you and talks you into it. If you need to not cook tonight, don't do it (whether that's him cooking or you two getting takeout). Big hugs, too. I'm sorry your sister sent you something so upsetting.
In his defense, it's not hard to talk me into things. I like to say I'm very easy going, but the truth is I don't like conflict. The new plan actually does make more sense. Holding off until tomorrow will give me time for a workout this afternoon without having to take too much time away from work. We're back to getting Thai/Sushi tonight. HA! This is one of the reasons why I avoid conflict with my husband. Most of the time he'll change his mind back to the original plan on his own.
I will be the first to say that he and I don't have a healthy relationship right now. My sister didn't really say anything upsetting. She apologized for the way she treated me and my husband and admitted that she never accepted him into the family. Then she said she missed being sisters. I'm feeling anxious about it because 1) I'm not sure I believe her and 2) my husband is sure to overreact about it. But I feel like I need to tell him about it because she's specifically apologizing to both of us. ...blah...
That's why I'm not yelling now. Treat yourself well lady!
At least dealing with withdrawal symptoms is a hellava lot easier than having headaches or feeling like a zombie from all the meds I was taking a few weeks ago.

I really want to orgasm... Lol. I've been on it for 15 months now.
Also, I kind of want to play over here more now...!

OMG so since I have stopped, I have been having them every day. It's really, really fabulous. I had forgot how much I miss those feelings.

Echoing doglove, it's amazing how much you miss it and how awesome it is once you've stopped those pills. It would take me forever to get over that hump and orgasm by myself, and I was seeing a bunch of guys during that time and couldn't o with any of them, even chef guy. It was such a relief once I felt "normal" again.

I want to take a nap. I got screamed at during a meeting last night (by a new member, I am the most Sr.) for completely unnecessary reasons. After the meeting I was talking to one of the other people for an hour about the shit show that had occurred. At 10:30 I finally start heading home and there was construction the entire way and it took me over an hour to get home. I have a ton of shit to do for work in the next 2 weeks, I have to write an email to someone who was caught in the crossfire last night and I just need a fucking nap because I got my shots for Tanzania and Rwanda yesterday and am running low on energy. Also, it's raining cats and dogs. I just want to crawl in bed for a few days.
SwimDeep do you have a plan on how to handle this? Counciling? Therapy?
I am in individual therapy. The doctor I see also works with couples, and I think she would be a good fit for my husband and I. I've talked to him about going, and he has said that he wants us to work on ourselves individually first before going to joint counseling. I think that on some level he thinks all the problems are mine (even though he has admitted his own poor behavior). He is working on himself (AA - and he has a great sponsor)... I am finally confronting my depression and trying to heal... there are improvements. But I admitted to my counselor this week that I'm running out of patience. I find myself fantasizing about living alone... There have been multiple times over the last year or so where I was so certain I was done...but I'm still here. Some days are good and I feel hopeful that we'll find a way to be happy again. Other days I feel like a fool.

I'm having trouble articulating exactly why, but the bolded really bothers me... I need someone who is more articulate to come in here and explain why this pisses me off... But I instantly bristled when I read this.
Also, I would not recommend using the same therapist for your individual and couples counseling. You need a neutral party for this.

I think you need to keep your individual therapist as YOUR therapist and find a different joint one who can speak with your therapist and his while they help you work through your issues together. That's my opinion though.

I don't think that bristling at "he thinks all the problems are mine" needs any explanation.
Has he said this? Why do you feel this way?
Eta: ditto a separate counselor for couples counseling.

This, and why does he get to decide that you don't need joint counseling right now? The fact that you feel it's necessary should be enough. It just seems like you're stating what you want and need pretty clearly, and he's invalidating and dismissing your feelings. Not cool.

THIS!! This is what I wanted to say! I just couldn't get past the seeing red stage enough to put words to it.
since this is a post about Friday, I just wanted you all to know that A) I am going to see Kathy Griffin tonight and B) I think I might wear a panty liner becasue last time I saw her I had to squeeze my legs together to hold in the pee from so much laughter.

You are welcome for that TMI.
I AM SO JELLY
I love love love her. When her stand-up was on instant watch I saw all of them three times. Take photos if you can!
