Simple concept.
Yesterday my therapist said the simplest of sentences to me and for the first time I actually heard her! It completely stunned me. Such a simple concept and I’m not sure why I heard her so clearly yesterday? Usually I just sit there and I either just say ok or I argue with her. Yesterday …

Dennis (summer 2019)
On Monday I was having a good day… it was influenced by diazepam but so be it.. I went for a lovely walk along the cliffs of Scarborough, I came across a bench dedicated to a man called Dennis.. who loved walking these cliffs with his wife… I sat on his bench and immersed myself …

So today… I indulged in a favourite childhood hobby of mine.. I climbed a tree! A bloody big one at that.. I don’t know where the urge came from I was moping through the cemetery envying the dead.. I needed to escape and I came across the most beautiful tree I just needed to be, …
