Breif Update
I have a PTSD moment today - nothing serious, just got into a situation that made me a jumpy wreck for a bit.
Between the added stress of final semester div III (my final semester of undergrad. - and whoa is it stressful and freakin' busy!) and my two year approaching, I seem to be taking a step or two backward in my healing. It's completely understandable, and I think I'm still holding it together well enough, but nightmares have started to come back a few times a week and I've been getting a little more jumpy about fire and burns lately. I think it was a really good decision for me to stay on the Prozac through the end of this semester.
I think I'm doing well. Like I said, I've been exceptionally busy. I have my moments of Div III panic, and stress and complete overwhelmedness, but... apart from my somewhat annoying habit of being a complete over-achiever and wanting to do everything (I've gotten so much better at saying "no!") I think all that's to be expected. And one great thing about being so busy is that I get shit done. Because I HAVE to. The past week or two has been pretty much completely insane though (even for me, and that's saying something) and I think that I'm also really starting to feel the effects of either being surrounded by people or doing work. I haven't really had the opportunity to be alone AND do something for myself in at least a week.
And holy shit WF! I'm looking forward to it! I'll be taking picture at night again! That'll be my vacation. I'll try my best not to think about school and work, and I think I could use your help by not asking me what I'm doing for my div iii and how school is going. I'm happy to tell you, but I think having 4 days to not even think about it will be very healthy for me.
Love! And snuggles!
Oh... and due to anticipated cold and the fact that I love and miss snuggles: Anyone want to adopt a bluehairsar for their wildfire tent?!
