| My new psychologist (my previous one left which I was very sad about because she didn't keep to a certain therapy, she just let me vent) is sticking to CBT. And she's given me a load of homework that I still haven't done and my next appointment is next week. It's stressing me out and that's the last... |

| Australia Post doesn't deliver on. Saturdays or Sundays either. But having mail delivered 5 days a week is fine. We get private companies delivering parcels whenever, even on Sundays. Startrack, FedEx, etc. I can't remember their names. Sometimes they don't have any identification on the side of the... |

| I like the quote where they talk about labels, and say we're going to get labels regardless. We might as well get the correct one. Exactly! My nephew is autistic but my sister doesn't want him to have a label so he's undiagnosed. I have a feeling he will get a diagnosis in the future without her in... |

| Twice I've taken an overdose of my medication. The first time my stomach rebelled and I threw it all up. I was peeved at the time. The second time I overdosed on Tegretol (carbamazapine) which I later read is a fairly serious medication to take too much of. My housemate called an ambulance and at th... |

| I still have to remind myself, when I'm around people my own age, that these are my peers. I Still tend to think of them as 'adults'. I can be quite childish and annoying at times. I don't feel any different than i did at 17, really. Yes! This is me as well. If a group of people at work are having ... |

When I graduated from uni, I wished I had family there. I had two friends instead. While I was grateful for their presence, I felt sad that none of my family showed up.
Kind of opposite from what you're experiencing, OP. |

| I'm interested in postage stamps and I have told people where I volunteer (second hand shop) that if any stamps are donated could I please see them before they're put out on the shop floor. So I've made my interest heard there. My whole family knows I like anything Japanese but I only talk about it ... |

| I feel 17ish. Not quite grown up because I still feel inferior when adults are talking. That I have nothing worthy to add. I still sometimes daydream when others are talking due to my inattentive nature and that doesn't do me any favours. |

Well in the first Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie, at the end Shredder falls into a rubbish truck and seemingly gets crushed (I think). |

I guess being a homebody has helped, as well as being at work by myself. The last thing I had was a minor sinus infection last year. I tested many times for Covid... |
