Well I have decided I must have a therapy session at least every 3 weeks if I go longer than that I start having melt downs. I had scheduled my therapy session for exactly 3 weeks away but my therapist had something come up so he scheduled me for the next day. By Wednesday night I started my downward spiral. No joke! And by Thursday I was just on full blown melt down like my husband, I am sure thought I was ready for the loony house.
At breakfast I spilled some water on my food and that was honestly enough for me to completely loose it. I started yelling at Jon and Mookie to please not look at me as I was completely having a melt down over my breakfast. Poor Mookie and Jon for having to see me in such a state. Mookie just kept on asking if I was ok which helped snap me out of it and then I was able to laugh about it. I wish that was the end of my story but no I eventually cried on the phone to my brother who cannot deal with emotional women and then flipped on my mother.
I keep going back to the same thing and doing and saying the same things hoping for a different outcome sadly not really realizing I won't EVER be getting a different response than I have gotten the last almost year. I think this is the definition of insane though so I just need to stop doing it.
My therapist told me some things I needed to hear today which were really good. One of them was that I need to come to terms with the fact that in this life I won't ever have a relationship with my father because he won't ever do the things that are in my "check list" I need to just leave that for after this life. I will for sure work on this. He also told me that I continue to have my melt downs most likely because I like feeling the adrenaline rush that I get during those moments. It's like an addiction. Lovely! Just what Jon keeps on saying. So I need to find a new way to get an adrenaline rush and get all that build up anger out. He told me to look at doing cardio.

Kickboxing? Not like Tae Bo, but like with boxing gloves. Seriously, I did it in college and loved it.
