bits and bits and pieces

justboltsI was reading into some mental health stuff yesterday, got unexpectedly upset over it, and hashed out my thoughts and feelings about it with a friend most of this morning. It wasn't even the subject made that me upset, rather the thought of "oh, maybe I've been dealing alone with something pretty hard and I could get help for that". Weird how that hits hardest of all.
I've been in therapy at different times before in my life and it's always a mixed bag. I went to my last therapist to address certain specific things and while I did get help with some of them, I didn't with the big one. And part of that, I think, is that I wasn't able to communicate the full extent of it. With this, I think I might be ready to go again. My friend suggested writing up a letter for a therapist way ahead of time and that's the best plan.
In other news:
- I got hired on at the company I've been temping with. Woo! Medical benefits, here I come! This is the year I need to go back into the hospital for all my tests and treatments, so it's good timing.
- I finished playing Kingdom Hearts III, and then immediately went and started playing Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance, my favorite of all Kingdom Hearts games and not the least because it's a big gay love story.
- I've started slowly picking my way through RWBY, about 500 years later. It's fun and charming for the fighting cartoon take on fairy tales that it is. Moreso than I expected. The old social circle I ran in was extremely cynical and judgmental of it, so I didn't bother to check it out personally. It's way less awful than stated, which isn't a surprise. I'm still on the first season and excited to see how it develops.
- It snowed in Los Angeles! I didn't get to see it where I was, though. What a thing to miss out on.
