Mandy's Advice

Saw Mandy, my psychologist yesterday.

She seemed to think that it wasn't at all surprising that I've been so angry and my self-esteem so low in the past week. And to cut a long and very personal story short, she seems to think that it is all to do with Olive. Apparently saying that you forgive someone and the actual act of forgiving are too very different things. One is very easy to do. The other isn't.

And its okay for me to be angry. "It's how people choose to express their anger that is the problem," Mandy explains.

Not much other news. Had a very quiet day. Baked Samuel some of his favourite macadamia biscuits (least I could do, seeing as I've been so painful to live with this past week,) and worked on my thesis.
