> I think it's absolutely common for mornings to be worst. They are for me. When I get up, and things need doing, and life goes on, I don't feel as bad.
Morning started at 4:15 am today, but I was too tired to get up and do anything useful (or harmful). I did drop off to sleep again. The ever-present suicidal thoughts and plans get really concrete during such times. I guess I need to think of things to get mornings started more routinely and productively. Before my job ended, I was trying to be in the office by 7:30, so even if I felt bad and was crying on the way, I was going somewhere.
> My therapist says that when you're dropping off to sleep and when you're waking in the morning, your unconscious is more available to you than at other times, and all the more primitive feelings come out at those times.
I can believe that. I think my subconscious hates my conscious. :)
