back for nothing

Oh my freaking Goddess it is good to get away from those dogs!! They are nice dogs, and generally well behaved, but I am not at all a dog person and I hate having to take care of them.

So like, I got a letter today from the welfare office saying that my medical assistance has been cancelled. Apparently I have been approved to recieve assistance from ODSP (disability) but instead of informing me, they informed the welfare office instead - who promptly cancelled all financial aid. I have not yet been contacted by ODSP and I have no idea how to contact them at this point to find out what the hell is going on. I really hope they get a hold of me and sort out the disability aid that I have supposedly been approved for, before the end of the month, otherwise I will be majorly screwed. On the other hand I am glad that I have been approved for disability pay and will not need welfare for much longer.

Traumatic Stress Progam at the hospital is really good. It is only one hour a week, but now I know why! We cover a lot of stuff and it is in many ways very overwhelming. A lot of the things discussed are triggering and it takes days to sort of "settle down" from it. Well maybe it is just me, but it is a lot to handle and I have never been good with stress anyway.

I have been feeling the usual rollercoaster of feelings, though today it was mostly stress and frustration. I have been having suicidal ideation and weird and disturbing thoughts, but I am not going to hurt myself - I have not even cut, though the desire to do so is strong. I am actually forcing myself to paint. I do not want to do it, because I would rather curl up in bed and sleep, but I also do not want to ruminate and aggravate the tumultuous thoughts and feelings inside of me.

Hate myself, hate the world, broken record, blah, blah, blah...

suicidal ideation, disability, trauma program
