Dear Waves,
The pdoc appt. was an important part of your week.
What are you doing tomorrow / today / Wednesday?

Do you have any routines for yourself that you can draw upon?
Music? Journalling?
Sitting outside (not good weather yet. and maybe not a good spot). I'm wishing you could go be outside the apt. But maybe not necessary but maybe necessary.

When I was young, I was able to go see a movie and get caught up in it for 90 mins. I was completely absorbed and out of myself. (In fact an under grad professor who was a jerk told me he did used that techniaque for himself and mentioned it to me. -- so maybe he was able to be helpful to me)

I went to see the movie Platoon after it had been in the theater a long time and was ready to leave town. I found it at a dollar theater so I could go some where after a root canal.
I wanted violence and lots of sounds. It wouldn't work now. And the theaters are smaller now and less accommodating to one trying to enter a different world for a little while.

Mostly. And I mean for real:
Do what you can to be kind to yourself.
Be patient.
Be forgiving.
