Jerms - a Brief flicker and then gone again. Started conversation Mar 9, 2004
Uni is about all I'm doing at the moment; its such a great distraction from my existence that I've thrown myself into it... perhaps a little too hard.
I really should make an effort to be more 'socially rounded' and spend some time with friends, but I suddenly don't seem to have any.
I'm very lonely.
I'm very isolated.
I'm running out of excuses not to go home today; my last tute finished at about 2:30, and have been doing a whole lot of nothing on the 'net since then (about two hours).
And now I'm typing because I don't want to stop.
Ah screw it.

Sorry your friends aren't being supportive at the moment, Jerms. How did the counselling session go?

Well the counselling wasn't a huge amount of help, but it was definitely better than not going. The one-hour appointment started 15 minutes late, because the counsellor's previous session ran late for some reason, and then he had to leave five minutes early to meet a train or something. I want to be booked in for regular appointements, but I'm not having much luck because the university counsellors are in so much demand it's crazy trying to book a time. I'm going to see him again next week (a fortnight after I last saw him.) and hopefully I can organise something more regular, like every week.
One aspect I particularly wanted to mention (and managed to!) was the fact that I'd realised that earlier in life my parents were never really proud of me at all, or trusted me much either. I realised this environmental conditioning has adjusted my development so that now, for me, the two strongest emotions are pride and trustfulness.
This led straight into the topic of my seemingly self-imposed, although non-deliberate, social isolation, and especially Chucky's recent betrayal.
The social aspect of my life has picked up a lot over the last few days, especially over the weekend, so I'm feeling a lot better now.
I'm about to write a journal entry about the last few days... it's actually been kind of interesting.
Thanks for being there, Candi.
