therapy

after a long day of work, my feet swell up, my necks hurts, my wrists ache, my hands get shaky, and my mind is koo-koo. i am still in the transition of getting use to the real world: work. not that sitting on my butt all day is hard, but i tend to clench when i work which really messes my body up by the end of the day.
furthermore, i feel even worse on the days if there is any mental stress from my co-workers or patients. its not fun when a 11 year old starts to cry when i have only applied topical anthesetic with a q-tip. its not fun when someone complains how long they have waited to see me when i have been jumping around from chair to chair breaking the heels of my shoes.
the past couple of months, i collapsed right on my sofa and in front of the tv. however, somethings needed to change. i have been going to the drayson gym with my husband to walk/jog outside. it is so refreshing and energizing by the end of it that i feel like a different person. after the exercise, my life is relieved with all the negative energy that has clogged up inside. i can't believe how therpeutic exercise can be when i'm stressed. so if you are sitting and reading my blog, you should probably get up and at least take a walk around your house.

I must say that I have given therapy, experience therapy, but I have never been the therapy.

Whatever. I'm glad to spend some QT with my wife.
