I'm so glad you had a good visit with the therapist. Like you, I was always the one who let people cut ahead in line, etc. No more. Since I had my emotional breakdown I have a big mouth and only move if I really want to. It really felt good the first time I yelled at some guy for cutting in line at the post office. He moved, and with a red face too. Talk to us any time you want, Ruchie. It is so good to vent it all out.

Ruchie,
Sorry to hear you are feeling so bad! I hope your meds kick in soon. And as far as this guy goes I would trust your instincts and stay far away from him and let him know that he makes you uncomfortable and that you would rather he not contact you but instead speak with your husband.
My life has been chaotic recently but has started to settle back down so if you need to talk you know how to reach me.

I gotta tell ya, all my best buds were guys growing up...only one or two female pals here and there.
I became religious despite my fam's protests as I believe in it very very strongly!!
My husband and I may not have that much intimacy yet due to m past, but our relationship means soo much! We don't touch anyone outside of our parents and grandparents of the opposite sex. And when WE touch... it's sooo powerful
I have begun to share some intimacy with him and I must say...the laws we follow are beautiful to me! I do not feel like they are restrictive...quite the contrary!
Anyhow...I just don't want you to think that I am locked in here in any way...it was a choice I made.
Thanks for caring about me, being here for me, supporting me, and loving me...i love you Jenny *hugs*

Ruchie.. I'm confused. Did you not grow up in this religion, or just not as strict?
was it your husband that inspired your decision to become religious?
As long as you love it thats all that matters.

It's interesting to hear about what works for other people- I'm glad you've found your way! I guess it's the same with vegetarianism for me and my husband. Our family's are all big meat eaters, but we just think it's morally and ethically wrong- and we don't feel denied from anything by not eating meat! (Well, occasionally we do a little bit, but the ethical well being is more important).
I didn't mean to sound so surprised by your faith- I just live in a much different world I guess.
I'm glad your therapy went well, you made it to Blockbuster, AND you told that guy to stop bugging you. You had such a productive day!! Love you too.

I'm proud of you for calling that guy! That took guts! You are making so much progress.
And I'm glad you have a good therapist. It sounds like the two of you have a great relationship. It's nice that you feel comfortable talking with her.
Keep it up! Have you felt ok on the med?

Ruchie:
You've got a lot of "stuff" going on, at ALL LEVELS--subconsciously, spiritually, physically, neurologically, intellectually and YOU'RE NOT AS STRONG AS YOU WILL BE...Meds. take time, i.e. give it a good six weeks. You also have anxiety/self-esteem issues that need to be addressed and tackled/managed.
Hugs.
It sounds like a trillion crossed communication wires. Honestly, I don't know how to interpret this. You don't have to answer the door. You don't have to participate in anything or do anything that causes you moral/spiritual discomfort. And you don't need to appologize to anyone for living in accord with your truth. So, if you're uncomfortable in anyway--don't answer the door. Stand up for you.
Protect yourself with words, with expressing/behaving in accordance to your feelings. You don't need to tell this guy a story or give him any reasons or excuses. Just artfully ignore him. You're a busy lady. Tell him you must consult with your husband or something like that.
Kate.
