[Real Life] I had a terrible shift at the Rose Quarter on Monday. Emetophobic cleaning up vomit is never a good idea, but I went into emergency mode and managed to help. I had a nice day shopping with Katrina..
yesterday and that helped, but today I seem to be in a brain fog, which is either lady issues related, or anxiety fall out still. ::Scrubs face:: Woke up finally at 1:00 pm today I'm all the slow.
::gives tea::
I have a para job tomorrow so I'm getting back on the work horse, but I can't help feeling I need a holiday from my life, lol.
ChickletLARP: ::Hugs:: Thank-you my friend, tea is always appreciated. 
My apologies to all if I've missed things I will try and catch up!
sends a package of hugs and her trademarked pillow-fort-in-a-kit
StereoNacht: Aw Yeah! That's the best! Thank-you my friend. ::Sinks in and sighs happily::
Sending some sunshine your way: 
Aww thank-you Bromo. I feel it, it's actually very sunny here you must have sent it.
Ugh, I'm sorry, that's awful. I hope if you can deal with cleanup in emergency mode it means you can eventually become desensitized.
Maybe, I have hope although the idea of desensitizing is pretty terrifying even if it's a long process. It's weird because I want to be rid of it.
Hopefully it might not be that bad....when my cat got diabetes I had to learn how to test his blood and I ject him, and I used to have a real fear of needles. At first, I would get kind of nauseous and light
headed when I had to prick his ear to get blood, and I tjought it was going to be terrible forever. But having to do it at least twice a day did eventually desensitize me, and now while I think I would still
be real stressed if I needed a shot, I can test blood and inject him easily. My dad has been diagnosed as pre-diabetic recently and trying to see which blood glucose meters were the most accurate, I was
able to test myself and stick my fingers to get blood, which I never thought I'd be able to do. So, I'm hopeful you'll have a similar experience in that if you're forced to, you can keep gojng into 'emergency
mode' when you're confronted with a situation, and that will habituate you to it until it sinks into your subconscious that it's actually fine and you can deal with it
Then you'll stop having a strong physical reaction
I'm sorry to hear about your Dad and your kitty. 
It's good to hear a story of overcoming such a thing, at the time it feels so very powerful.
