You have nothing left to give to others.

I've noticed that there are those who continuously give of their time and emotions.(I'm not one of them:D) Dipping into their soul again and again to get someone through a rough time.

Take some time for YOURSELF! Slow down. Do something just for YOU. Turn off the phone, the computer, the television and do whatever it is the gives you inner strength. If you let yourself run dry...nothing is there when YOU need it.


Ever run dry? What do you do to replenish?

Yes. I have a friend who is very close to being psychotic. Seriously out of touch--she externalizes nearly everything. On the bad side, she always blames someone else for her problems, and that is often me. On the good side, inevitably I get some credit when things go well. All I can say is "It's all you."

When she's going especially nuts, I try to keep myself emotionally distant. She yells at me and I try to keep it clinical "I can see that you are angry..." I say, "...but I won't accept responsibility for this issue." She keeps yelling.

Occasionally, I take a break: "I'm sorry, but I need a break. I'm going to go get a cup of coffee at the coffee shop. I'll be back in a few minutes." And that's what I do. She's pissed, but she was pissed to begin with. Nothing I can do to make a difference at that point, anyway. She'll still be there (and just as angry) when I get back. So I may as well get comfortable.

She accuses me of being cold and indifferent, but she doesn't exactly have the friends banging down her door. I care about her well-being. I wish she would get some therapy--maybe some cognitive therapy would work--but it'll never happen. She might be too smart to benefit from therapy, anyway. Some people are too smart for their own good. She doesn't have much money or insurance, now, anyways.

I have a good friend of mine who helps me with her. We tag team. We're the [my friend] support group. :p

I just try to remember that, no matter how much she tries to make it that way, it's not my life. It's her life. I try to be kind, but if she drives me away I'm not going to fight her. I try to be discreet when she threatens suicide (for the ten gazillionth time) but ultimately, I realize that I can't stop her if she really wants to. You might call it cold. I call it emotional survival. Manipulation is a two-way street. I can't be manipulated if I refuse to play my part.

Bingo.

It saddens me when I see someone being manipulated and they really believe they have no choice in the matter. Why would you want to let someone else steer the direction of your life?

Morning...hg:kiss:

(Raises hand)...I'll admit it. I'm one of those people who has thought of others before herself. Don't think I'm trying to sound selfless here. I've recongnized how I've thought if I could keep everybody elses needs taken care of then mine would also be met.

Not true.

I'm getting much better at taking what I need and making my needs known. And preserving some time for myself.

Running dry for me is usually about the time all the worried thoughts are racing through my head....family, work...whatever else pops up and won't get out of my brain.

A good hike with the dog in the woods is always invigorating if I can get off my lazy derriere to do it. Focusing on breathing and yoga helps me clear my head and generally leaves me calm.

And if there's time and privacy for masturbation, a good O never hurts the situation!!!
