After too many sleepless nights full of tears, I reached out to my former counselor. I need perspective and some tools to deal with stress. She's known me for almost 20 years, and covid forced her to start doing tele-therapy last year. That's benefitting me now since I live 500 miles away. She runs it out of her home. What is a fair payment nowadays?

I left to actually be on time for a mom's only breakfast this morning after checking the event details on FB. I get there 40 mins later, see no one else, and check the event page again. It was cancelled 20 mins before the start time, and we all live at least 30 mins from the restaurant 😠ETA: It was too depressing to just sit and eat by myself even though I literally cried that I needed a quiet time to myself last week. What's wrong with me? Please, someone else have a real time for themselves. Let me live vicariously through you.

Oh no DGM, I'm sorry that happened! That's stupid that they canceled it that soon before it was supposed to happen. I really need to carve out some time for myself. I'm feeling pretty worn down and burnt out. When my parents get here I'm pretty sure I'm going to get them to watch the kids a couple of times so I can have some alone time for a change lol

Ugh DGM I’m so sorry that happened. I would love to meet you for breakfast if teleportation was a thing! You deserve all the self-care and I’m sorry it feels like work to get that right now.

charlotte, same. Except I'd be all excited to show up and then when the time actually comes I'd just sit there and be awkward XD
