Grade A Therapy, Just Me and the Dude...

I had not visited my Mental Health Professional in roughly two weeks due to health issues Monday morning 04.October.2010, and then the vertigo attack that evening kept me in medical exile much longer than usual. To top this off, this week there were situations and issues providing high stress and anxiety for me to make today's appointment. Fortunately, all went well, and my brother-in-law was able to drive me to and from. I knew too damn well not to miss this appointment...two weeks or more without therapy is not a good thing for me. Waiting that long between visits was too taxing...perhaps too dangerous.

Anyways...I made it for the session, and my Dude, my therapist, was ready and had his Game Face on. It was all in the way he spoke and conducted the session, I suspect. But let me share that once the ball got to rolling, all-the-good-goodness-mental-liquid-poop hit the fan! From every direction, Honey! It got quite messy and stinky up in there....I cried from the gut, heart, mind and Spirits...and time flew as if I had just sat down on my favorite big comfy chair. Oh, my dear Relations, I so went and took it there! No BULL! I took it to this place where it is off and odd limits, and my Dude, he came along with me. That's why I visit my Dude. No, really. Even gave me homework!

#1. I am to coordinate an appointment at the "Y" around the corner and up a block or two from my home for a tour. He has spoken with someone there about what type of therapeutic programs and/or classes for one walking on a Path like mine may participate in...then being chubby on top of that too. Bless his heart, he was so positive and upbeat about it, some of his enthusiasm rubbed off on me...looks like I may be joining the "YMCA," y'all.

#2. Blog more often...

...and #3, is to have my physical therapist have me do outside workouts more often.

Well, I won't even take this any further. There is no need in going into subject matter. True? One thing I will share is my shoes feel a bit more comfortable today. Have to give the Dude an A+!

Today is a good day to die. It is also a beautiful day to be alive.

Thank you God!
