Let’s Unpack That

I realize that if I don’t write everyday I’m just not going to write. Or write and not publish. The result is the same either way. Lol. So I am going back to writing every day, starting today. Technically,  Saturday. There is a chance that y’all are going to get sick of me. I’m fine with that. Pick and chose the days you want to read and leave the rest there. Just don’t be asking me something I wrote about. I’m going to be like, Read the blog! ๐Ÿ˜†

I have decided to start therapy. I have always said I needed to go, I just wasn’t sure how a therapist would be able to help me. I’m still not sure, but it can’t hurt. I feel like I am self-aware and I know my issues.ย  I also know, that I don’t really want to change. Another reason why I couldn’t see how therapy would help. What made me finally decide to give therapy a try is, I am stuck. I am struggling creatively, I enjoy spending time with myself a little too much, and I want to get married. This version of me is not relationship ready. Maybe therapy can drill down to the issue, besides me being set in my ways. I want a more open life with more experiences. I want to do things I have never done and find enjoyment again in the things I used to do. I’m getting old and life just seems to be happening to me. I gotta take my plane off autopilot and start flying again. I know, corny, but you understand what I am saying.

I guess if I don’t get anything out of it, at least I tried. Now, the trick is to actually find a therapist that is a good fit for me. I need someone who doesn’t have an issue with me cussing. What a weird ass requirement ๐Ÿ˜‚. It isn’t the only requirement, just one of them. The main requirement is someone who accepts my insurance! Wish me well. And I will be praying that God leads me to the therapist that is right for me. I will also be praying for you too. Stay well and whole. Much Love ๐Ÿงก ๐Ÿ’š

  1. Hi Eb, are you back in Toledo? I have started this several times and somehow lost it to the cyber abyss, so if you get this more than once, forgive me. I wanted to tell you that I went to a therapist in Trenton a few years back. Her office is about a block from Elizabeth Park entrance. Her name is Candice Worthy. Very easy to talk to, and has a sense of humor, which you know would be important to me. You also know I cuss like a fuckin sailor and she didnโ€™t bat an eye! When I asked her straight up if she cussed, she said something about trying to stay professional, but she said it with a smile so I knew that she didnโ€™t give a shit what I said. And the added bonus for me was that she hated Trump as much as I do. (I was seeing her during his first run for office) Anyway, just wanted to throw out my suggestion. I love you girl! Love, your bonus momma. ๐Ÿ˜„โค๏ธ

    1. Omgoodness I know exactly what you mean. This is my second time writing this ๐Ÿ˜‚. Hi Sherri! Yes, I am back in Toledo. I needed to experience all four seasons and I missed home. I am happy to be back.

      You actually gave me her information before. I contacted her office, but they didn’t take out of state insurance. I wasn’t doing great financially at the time so I couldn’t see her. I am doing a little better financially now so I guess if they still don’t take my insurance, I could give it a try. I am finding the good ones are not taking new patients. Thank you for the suggestion. I love you too ๐Ÿงก.
