"Believe it or not - I left the house this morning to meet-up w/ 2 of my girl friends that I haven't seen in 4 yrs.
Shamefully, one lives maybe an hour away and the other is from the USA.
But we picked up right where we'd been.
There was extended talk re: mental health/illness since I am trying to manage with meds."
*the rest deals w/ sex and is on my other blog*

1st attempt at emailing a post
So I am at home, just me and my shoe-lovin' sparkle-wearing, pink enthusiast. Watching season 1, part 1 of She-ra on DVD.
I went out with one of my BFFs today. Just for a quick drive and a chat.
Over the years, she has been one of the best people at getting me to leave the house, even if it's just been for a 5 minute drive to breathe the air outside after hiding out indoors after X amount of days.
At my very worst, she was great about getting my son to and from school because I could not bear to leave the house.
She goes grocery shopping with me so I don't freak out/ give up and go home because having that supportive friend with me really helps.
I actually just realized the other day that we met before my son turned 2.
That means we've known each other for over 8 years (since I think the kids were about 18 months when we met).
I just told her about this blog today. She has a lot of experience with people with bpd but although she knows of my recent diagnosis, I wasn't sure that might have any sort of impact on our friendship.
It's the same worry I have with all my closest friends (unless they have bpd - LOL!)
I know in the past on occasion when I vent that there have been times where I have said something followed by, "You know what I mean?" And have been met with a funny look and a slightly awkward, "No."
Then I'd brush it off and try to give a less odd example and try to make whatever I had tried to share/express sound more "normal."
And now I have completely lost my train of thought. Crap.
