Sometimes it just plain hurts

And it's okay to say it. And it's okay to feel it.

And you don't have to analyze it, deny it, excuse it, feel embarrassed or ashamed for the reasons behind it or apologize for it.

You just have to ride it out. Accept it. And then when you're ready, get up again and do something, anything.

Damn it hurts today. I'm going shopping.

ooooh

The damage a girl can do in a mall in healing mode. :) And today this chick is heading out to take the advice of all here: mani/pedi is on the day's agenda. :) Aaaah.

I am heavily indulging in manicure these days!

As well as pedicure and massage and fab facials at a pink and girly spa up the road... I LOVE IT! And I feel taken care of and more attractive :)

Pedicures!!

Never under estimate the power of a pedicure! Pedicures and sexy panties are in my arsenal to fight the Narc blues!

You have to let it hurt--walk

You have to let it hurt--walk through it, in order for it to be part of your past. I am still learning this. I think crying has helped me heal a little; but some days I feel like I have a truck sitting on my chest, and it's all in knots, and I can't breathe. It is the scariest feeling. Mornings are really tough for me--for some reason I thought nights would be, as I spent most nights with my N. But my therapist said that during the day we build our defenses throughout the day and we coach ourselves to feel better. When we sleep at night..all of our defenses are down, and we wake up the most vulnerable.
