Donna said on Nomo's thread "Just checking in to see if your PMA is back up. I know all too well how hard it can be to keep it there. When I am really down, my C has suggested I set an alarm for 15 minutes of expressing it (and boy, do I express it!), then go back to my Grounding List (similar to GAL, but more immediate"
This does make alot of sense to me. It is something I need to work on. Sometimes I get stuck in my negative attitude rut, well, for days. It is not a good place. Finding a way to just let the poisen out in a way that is not going to cause me any further problems, and moving on. I mean if I am to face facts, being in the negative place is not very good detaching anyhow. I must admit that most of my negatives are about her and the situation.
I like what donna also said about the grounding list. Because when I am in my rut, I accomplish very little. And I keep thinking of all of this stuff I need to get done. Some little stuff, some bigger........ie change oil in car, get a haircut.....rearrange furniture. I have been thinking of getting a little notebook and everytime I think of something I need to do write it down. When I get stuck, just open this book and pick something.
I know this probably sounds stupid to some of you. But when I am "stuck" it is like I can hardly think.
Spent alot of time last night reading abouttobedivorced's thread. Some interesting stuff in there, seems like this guy took GAL to the max. Also got a kick out of the letter he sent her.....boy I would like to send my WAW a similiar letter some day!
