Crying
I’m being discharged for both physical and occupational therapy. I’ve never been discharged from therapy and it is an under statement to say that it is bittersweet. I’ve worked so hard and I’ve met my goals and I will certainly miss my therapists. In PT my goal was to stand for a minute and I stood for five minutes thirty seconds. I guess I didn’t think about therapy ever ending. I mean I’ve been in it for the past five years.
Ever since tumor removal when I cry I just can’t stop. It’s so annoying because I don’t have the option of hiding my feelings. There’s no stopping me. I’m 37 and I can’t hide hide my emotions. When I’m upset everyone knows. This has made me a connoisseur of tissues. I hate the dumb tissues that the hospital that I receive therapy in. They are so thin. You can only wipe your eyes with it. You can forget about trying to blow your nose. So whenever I start to feel upset at therapy, I always ask for toilet paper. I refuse to use the stupid tissues. I don’t want to use the idea of a tissue. I want an actual tissue.
This one time a kid imitated my voice. It was a family member. Kids can be cruel without knowing that they are. I started crying and it was really embarrassing because I knew he was just a kid but I couldn’t help myself from crying. It’s a major problem. So much of life is upsetting and now I cry about it.
My Dear, I feel you. I cried my entire life, since am a child. Every slightly strong emotion, positive or negative, ends up with tears. Sooo many occasions to skin irritation. Toilet paper is definitely the best for the delicate skin around eyes. I also use bath towels whenever possible. Soft and thick.
ReplyDeleteA bit like us I guess. Soft and thick. We can be both.
Anyway, from a emotional open-book to another: it's okay and you are still an amazing person.
