You got us hanging Korihor. We need to hear the goods before making a opinion full of judgement and possibly scorn. We support you either way, though.

As long as jail time is not a possible consequence, it's going to be OK.
At the halfway home. I'm a full-grown man. But I'm not afraid to cry.

Well, don't hold your breath for details. Just a sucky day.

Well, all storms must pass, I'm hoping we made it through the eye of the hurricane.

Thanks for the nice words, my NOM family is great.

No details. Just a bad bad day.

Damn.

Best of luck pulling out of the nosedive, K!

One day I was walking into a store and my foot caught on that bit of curve that goes from regular sidewalk to wheel chair access. I stumbled a couple of steps, but the forward momentum was too great and I fell forward into a face. plant.

My first thought was, Ow!

My second thought was how that fall was probably caught on security camera.

My third thought was, I'll bet that looked funny.

There are many ways to nosedive and with time, pain diminishes and our perspective changes.

Things'll get better.

I had one of those a few weeks back. It felt like The end of my job and likely my small town has no other opportunities in my niche. I stared relocation in the face. It sucked that it may not be on my ideal terms or timeline. It was never resolved but basically just went away.

Sounds similar to your situation. Glad it passed for you Kori!

I'm there right now too. I think it's basically going away but I'm not sure. I hate this.

Nobody’s perfect.

I think self-compassion is more practical than self-esteem.
