my mood is really super low and I have very little motivation to do anything but sleep, even if the puppy here. she would love to snuggle, but isn't allowed on the bed, and i can't get down on the floor.

i'm having a really hard time accepting that alters are running a muck in my head....and don't know where to start with accepting it.

Please let the dog on the bed. It is quite normal and should make you feel better.

Not my decision....can't convince my husband. And if I do during the day and not at night we're going to be so frustrated.

It sucks you can't let the dog in the bed, is there a couch or something she could be allowed to sit on with you? I always sleep with my dog. I make her stay on top of the blankets but she's there.

What are you having a hard time with? Just that they exist? Or are they doing things that you don't like?

It was very hard for me to accept/admit that I was not alone, that other people came out and controlled my body, stole my time. It made me angry and it made me sad. I wanted to hide from it. I wanted it to just go away, I didn't want to deal with any of it. It was hard but once I started talking to them and getting to know them and realized how very much I needed them, I was able to stop resenting them. Once you develop a relationship with them you will feel more comfortable and you will start to understand why they do what they do and how your system works.

Even after I stopped hating them and being angry at them it took me a while to care about them and help them resolve some of their issues. I realized how much time I wasted denying and trying to hide. I know now that was not all of my fault either but I didn't try to fight it either, I just let the denial and fear control me.

I hope your new puppy is a great comfort to you and the friend you need when you are feeling alone.

I don't know if
I'm early or late
What is the date??
Maybe some year
I'll get this straight
Caramel for breakfast
Sugar shock
I watch the clock
Tick tick
Tock tock
I run up
You run down
Then back around
We are falling
To the ground
Pick me up
Turn me loose
I am glad
You are amused...
