@Faith-and-Hope @Shaz51 @CheerBear @Pepsimax @Zoe7 @TheVorticon Super big thank you for caring about me. I am snuggled in my shell in @CheerBear's pocket and right now I feel like I'm never ever coming out...but I also know the big feelings will pass.
This evening I have been preparing for a tutoring session that I'm doing with a...wait for it...PSYCHOLOGIST tomorrow morning. She is one of those people who has been a psychologist for ages and is now doing her clinical masters. I cannot begin to tell you how wrong it feels that I have such utter contempt for the whole profession and my brain is fried from so many of them doing so much harm...and yet I step into this other world where they come to me to help them survive the statistics component of their course. It feels so wrong...and yet they pay me and I need the money.
On the bright side, HAVING to look at this stuff tonight has been an awesome distraction from the rest of the chaos in my world. I really am a nerd. Revising stuff out of my stats textbook makes me feel super calm. It's so...ordered and predictable and...just super nice. Yay for being a geeky turtle.
I am so very VERY grateful that you are all here in Forum Land. I will fix my brain somehow...but for now I'm just going to snuggle into @CheerBear's pocket with Squishy and Mr Seahorse. @CheerBear if you COULD make me a psychiatrist/psychologist, that would be super. He may not help...but at least he would do no harm...which would be an improvement on the vast majority of mental health professionals out there.
