    Set boundaries with myself. My therapist helped me come up with some.

    Sounds good. How likely do you believe you will be to apply them?
    Markness
    Markness
    I think it’s likely I will, especially because I realize not getting proper sleep has been deconstructive for my mental health.
    The supervisor’s assistant always takes chances to snap at me.

    She says you act *uncertain*, like you don't really know what to do?
    Markness
    Markness
    It’s more that she doesn’t like it when I am idle from uncertainty.

    So, yes, she believes that you act like you don't quite know what to do.
    Can I still get my life together at my age?

    Since this is the age you are right now, the answer would seem to be *yes.* You can't return to a younger age. But if by "get my life together" you mean attain a problem free perfect existence, you'd be wise to consider each event as progress toward a goal.
    I couldn’t stand the heat in my stepfather’s car and had blood come out of me again.

    Still nothing yet. I was supposed to get a call.

    I forgot that I bought some MiraLax but haven’t been using it.

    So this is a constipation issue. If you were expecting a call, and haven't rec'd one yet, wdn't it make sense to follow up on that?

    The clinic just called me and scheduled for me.
    I can’t decide on any sort of short term goal. Trying to come up with a list feels daunting.

    Did somebody tell you to make an extensive list of multiple goals? Or what?
    Why do others always assume the worst about me and don’t believe me until I am practically in tears explaining myself?
    tree

    I don't know. Who have you been talking to? What are they assuming? And how can you tell what they assume?
    My forehead is feeling hot.

    Markness
    Overthinking, not drinking enough water, and not sleeping well.

    Have about five ounces of cold water. It can't hurt. You get hot from thinking ruminatively/have heat surge due to the contents of your thoughts?
    Markness
    Markness
    I think so.
    I sometimes fear that more and more women my age don’t want romantic relationships.

    @tree I’ve seen other ones that you’ve posted but I was never sure how the site works.

    I’ve been told love will happen when I least expect it. But I’ve been feeling like it won’t ever happen for many years.

    @Markness You experience many over-poweringly negative feelings, many of which are a result of the meanings you assign to what people say.
    Caffeine isn’t helping me get a boost.

    There's only so much energy available to wring out . Caffeine itself doesn't have food value. Coffee does, but not caffeine.

    Intermittent Fast, change diet, might help.

    Caffeine doesn't give me a boost; coffee still tastes good though. So I drink it.
    My tongue is burning and my head aches but I am forgotten about. :(

    That's what I mean. You don't stop to think about it, take into account the temperature or the style of chewing.

    @tree I think I can change these behaviors around. I just have to remember that these things are bad habits.
    tree
    tree
    Yes, it would be useful to stop and consider how to not behave in ways that actually cause you physical pain. I follow this idea, myself.
