Examining Feelings Probably Helps

I had another good head shrinking today. See below.

Sensory:

-Pins and needles: 2, depends on position

-Tingles: 0

-Dysesthetic pain: 1

-Paresthesias: 0

-Numbness: 1

-Vision: 1

-Nerve pain: 3

-Hearing: 1, and I think it is from the fan I sometimes use at night. Darn it.

Motor:

-Walking: 6 to 2, VERY stiff when I woke up, barely able to walk. But I loosened up and mostly dealt with weakness after that.

Cognitive:

-Language processing: 1

General:

-Fatigue: 2, but I did very little moving today. Worked on my laptop.. went to the shrink.. went to a little organic grocer.. back home and working on my laptop the rest of the day.

-Balance: 1

-Sleep: 3, woke up a few times but went back to sleep. Yeah! Crying my little heart out yesterday worked.

-Bladder: 0

-Proprioception: 1

Emotions: Funny, although I think that counseling sessions are helping me, I sort of do not want to go. I want to go, but I don't, you know? I think it is because in the last two sessions we have gotten deeper inside me. It is uncomfortable. It makes me feel vulnerable, which I do not like. But I have felt stronger and calmer after the last few sessions, so it does help. It gives me things to think about. I have thoughts and insights during therapy that really do not come to me on my own. On my own I just cry until I am exhausted and empty. Not that I do not cry during therapy. ;)
