As above.

A mum friend of mine mentioned the educators must hate me because I sometimes send my daughter in overalls.

It’s been getting cold here (Autumn) and they keep her warm.

I only send ones with crotch poppers and she’s only 7 months old.

Should I not ?

My sister and I have always been pretty close. Not in an emotional way, but hang out a lot. Kind of a default pairing in the family.

We’re in our 30s and have mostly been single.

My sister now has a lovely bf/partner, but I’ve just realised now we have an upcoming family event that I’m on my own now.

Like I have my own hotel room as she’s sharing with him, will have to do my own thing in the city we’re staying in etc.

It feels so silly and childish to say I’m sad my sister has a bf. We’re fully adults. But I’m still kinda sad

The unit I work with used to utilise patient diaries (hand written) for trauma/long term patients.

I know there is a lot of research about the benefits in filling gaps in memory, reducing ICU PTSD etc.

I'd love to get them back (having moved overseas and back where they had them)

But it is becoming quite difficult to move forward with legal requirements, where to document (should it be via the emr/not paper) and finally how to return diaries to patients once they are well enough. We don't have an ICU follow up clinic for this final stage.

Would love to know how your unit does it. I feel like they are are so beneficial for patients (and staff!) and I'm sad we're using them at the moment.

I'm not in the US, but open to any opinions/advice

My psychologist wants me to name it.

I have a super strong inter critical/negative inner monologue.

I could just say it’s an inner critical/negative self talk. But also in some ways I feel it’s my protection for not doing something dumb or embarrassing.

Like a protector, that’s actually abusive.

Anyone who has done this sort of therapy, what have you gone with?
