...Dealing with Issues

Kelli came over last night, we went to go and get Tiramisu and chatted about what I was feeling. Long story short, I think I was dealing with more than just Anthony, who lets be honest was really sweet to me on the phone. His 'rejection' triggered emotions that I felt when my ex-husband would make promises to me and then break them. I had a flood of emotions that made me want to run away from the situation. I recently found a lot of pictures of my wedding day and pictures of my ex-husband and I together. I too often forget I will have to deal with the effects of the abuse I suffered for the rest of my life. I normally function really well considering what I have gone through but unexpected things like this can trigger emotions and memories to come flooding back in. I talked with Kelli and she suggested that I might benefit from seeing a therapist. She is probably right. UVU offers services to students for only $10.00 a session. I am going to call today to make an appointment. I feel a little crazy right now, emotionally. Luckily, this only happens every once in a while but I could use some help dealing with my emotions right now.
